Drivers of variability in transpiration and implications for stream flow in forests of western Oregon

Creator:

Moore, Georgianne W.

Abstract:

I compared transpiration among different types of forest stands in the western Cascades of Oregon. The three major questions were: 1) How does transpiration compare between a young and old stand and why? 2) Does diversity of overstory trees affect transpiration? and 3) How is transpiration related to stream flow?...

Inter-relationships of vegetation, hydrology and micro-climate in a young, Douglas-fir forest

Creator:

Barnard, Holly Rene

Abstract:

The links between forests, streamflow, and climate are poorly understood. Despite hundreds of studies over the past 60 years, fundamental questions of forests' effects on the hydrologic cycle remain unanswered. The hydrological cycle involves mutually-dependent biological and physical processes that operate at multiple scales of time and space, and this...
