The role of near-stream zones on flow, chemistry and isotopic composition at the headwater scale

Creator:

Frentress, Jay

Abstract:

Stream discharge is a key water balance component and important factor in global change evaluations. Nevertheless, the mechanisms for streamflow generation are poorly understood. Near- stream surface saturation during precipitation events is one of the most iconic, visible indicators of rapid runoff production in upland humid catchments around the world....

A macroscale measurement and modeling approach to improve understanding of the hydrology of steep, forested hillslopes

Creator:

Graham, Christopher Brian

Abstract:

The dominant controls on flow generation in steep, forested hillslopes are poorly understood. This dissertation examined the dominant flow processes operating at the hillslope scale, using a combined macroscale measurement and model development and analysis framework. Irrigation experiments at two steep forested hillslopes were conducted to isolate individual hillslope flow...
