Object Watershed Link Simulation (OWLS)

Creator:

Chen, Huaisheng

Abstract:

Object Watershed Link Simulation (OWLS) is a physically based watershed model. In the OWLS model, a watershed is defined as a three-dimensional object with linkages between cells and their attributes (e.g., area, slope, soil type, etc.). A cell is defined as the linkages of edges and their attributes (e.g., length,...

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...

Dissolved nitrogen in surface waters and nitrogen mineralization in riparian soils within a multi-land use basin

Creator:

Evans, Daniel M.

Abstract:

The growing population of Oregon’s Willamette River Basin places an increasing demand on the basin’s surface waters. Watershed-scale research addressing spatial trends of dissolved nitrogen (DN) and its relationship with landuse and soil N dynamics, such as N mineralization, is sparse in the Willamette Basin. I measured DN along 124...
