Creator:: Alagaidi, Nuha
Abstract:: The objectives of this project are to 1) evaluate the fish passage for Lamprey at the Alder Creek, Corvallis, OR using HEC-RAS, and 2) develop a worksheet for the scour analysis if the culvert is removed. Fish passage criteria from Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife were applied to determine...
Resource Type:: Capstone Project
Full Text:: Resources Engineering & Biological and Ecological Engineering Master of Science Presented

Creator:: URycki, Dawn R.
Abstract:: Interactions and feedbacks among climate change effects and continued human impacts will exacerbate impacts to water resources in complex ways. An urgent imperative of the hydrologic community is to understand the response of hydrologic systems to these perturbations, thus contributing to long-term sustainability of water resources in an uncertain future....

Full Text:: for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Water Resources Engineering and Biological and Ecological

Creator:: Hale, Abigail E.
Abstract:: Survival of ecological systems pivot on critical moments. In the arid John Day Basin of Eastern Oregon, extensive restoration of the stream and floodplain focused on supporting salmon has been ongoing for the past 20 years, but recurring short periods of extreme temperature increase and low flows result in mortality...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: of Master of Science in Water Resources Engineering and Biological and Ecological Engineering

Creator:: Kahsai, Simon K.
Abstract:: Urban development causes changes in the hydrology, increasing stormwater runoff volumes, which often leads to flooding and ecosystem degradation. This is a common phenomenon in most urban Africa, due to lack of stormwater drainage infrastructures. Green Infrastructure (GI) has been shown to be an effective approach to lessen the effects...

Full Text:: the degree of Master of Science in Water Resources Engineering and Biological and Ecological

Creator:: Abourached, Carole
Abstract:: While water scarcity and energy demand are continuously increasing in the world, alternative sources are needed to meet the requirement of a growing population. Microbial Fuel Cell (MFC) is a sustainable technology that converts organic matter in wastewater into electricity, thus it can be a potential alternative source for water...
