Construction, Degradation, and Restoration of Wet Meadow Ecosystems in Semi-arid Landscapes, Northern Great Basin, USA

Creator:

Nash, Caroline S.

Abstract:

Wet meadow ecosystems are a useful natural laboratory in which to explore feedbacks between biogenic and geologic controls on valley bottom landforms. Characterized by flat valley floors flanked by higher-gradient hillslopes, these meadows are singular both in that they represent depositional features in what is primarily an erosional environment, and...

Will we need to change the rules : assessing the implications of climate change for dam operations in Oregon's McKenzie River Basin

Creator:

Danner, Allison G.

Abstract:

Dams and reservoirs are important components of water resource management systems, but their operational sensitivity to streamflow variability may make them vulnerable to climate change. Climate change is likely to affect the magnitude and timing of streamflow, motivating the assessment of potential impacts on dams and reservoirs. Here I examine...
