Phytoplankton samples were collected from 5 upper Willamette Basin reservoirs in variable months during years 2013-2016 and 2019. Samples were collected from Blue River Reservoir, Cougar Reservoir, Fall Creek Reservoir, Lookout Point Reservoir, and Hills Creek Reservoir. The phytoplankton were identified and enumerated by Jim Sweet at Aquatic Analysts. Density...
Isotope and stomach content data from piscivorous reservoir fishes collected from Hills Creek (isotopes; 43°40′16″N 122°25′33″W) and Lookout Point (isotopes and stomach contents; 43°53′48″N 122°43′34″W) reservoirs located on the Middle Fork Willamette River, Oregon. Additional details can be found in the related publication.
Isotope sampling was conducted under OSU Institutional...
1. Globally, river systems have been extensively modified through alterations in riverscapes and flow regimes, reducing their capacity to absorb geophysical and environmental changes.
2. In western North America and elsewhere, alterations in natural flow regimes and swimways through dams, levees, and floodplain development, work in concert with fire regime,...
Flow and temperature are strongly linked environmental factors driving ecosystem processes in streams. Stream temperature maxima (T [subscript max_w]) and stream flow minima (Q[subscript min]) can create periods of stress for aquatic organisms. In mountainous areas, such as western North America, recent shifts toward an earlier spring peak flow and...
Worldwide, lack of data on stream temperature has motivated the use of regression-based
statistical models to predict stream temperatures based on more widely available data on air
temperatures. Such models have been widely applied to project responses of stream temperatures
under climate change, but the performance of these models has...

Biological invasions create complex ecological
and societal issues worldwide. Most of the
knowledge about invasions comes only from successful
invaders, but less is known about which processes
determine the differential success of invasions. In this
review, we develop a framework to identify the main
dimensions driving the success and failure...
