A statistical evaluation of the water quality impacts of Best Management Practices installed at Tillamook County dairies

Creator:

Dorsey-Kramer, Jadene

Abstract:

The overall goal of this study was to determine if the Tillamook Bay tributaries' water quality has improved as a result of the Best Management Practices (BMP) installed at Tillamook County Dairies. The Rural Clean Water Program (RCWP) was a 10 to 15 year experiment designed to control agricultural non-point...

Source identification of fecal pollution in the Tillamook watershed : antibiotic discriminant analysis

Creator:

Bower, Robert J.

Abstract:

The identification of sources of point and nonpoint fecal pollution is difficult to determine. Understanding the sources of fecal organisms in quality limited waters could greatly enhance our ability to restore and protect the water quality and habitat of these systems. Antibiotic resistance patterns of fecal streptococci bacteria were analyzed...

Fecal coliform bacteria in stream sediments : sampling methodology, measurement and modeling the impact on stream water quality

Creator:

Church, Wendy S.

Abstract:

Three studies were conducted related to the measurement and impact of stream sediment fecal coliform (FC) bacteria on stream water quality. In part one an enumeration technique for sediment FC was defined and statistically characterized. This characterization necessitated the development of a sample splitting mechanism, which was found to split...
