Flow-Solute : A Tool for Exploring the Effects of Nitrogen Management in Alternative Future Scenarios

Creator:: Wentworth, Andrew Michael
Abstract:: Surface water quality is a growing concern in the Willamette River Basin and elsewhere. The region's growing population is dependent on the availability of clean water for drinking water, irrigation, wastewater dilution, and wildlife habitat. Watershed management to produce economic goods and environmental services requires an understanding of basic hydrologic...

Addressing Emerging Issues in Tropical Ecohydrology : A Combined Hydrometric and Isotopic Approach to Evaluate the Origin and Age of Water in a High-Elevation Tropical Ecosystem

Creator:: Mosquera, Giovanny M.
Abstract:: This thesis focuses on the identification of ecohydrological processes in nested system of catchments in a tropical alpine (the wet Andean páramo) ecosystem. We accomplish this by conducting a water stable isotopic characterization of water sources, an evaluation of the mean transit time (MTT) of streams waters, and the investigation...

Monitoring Streamflow Response to Effects of Climate Change in the Kenai Peninsula and Prince William Sound Region of Southcentral Alaska

Creator:: Anderson, Dean J.
Abstract:: This thesis explores the challenges of monitoring stream hydrology in a warmer and wetter climate in the Kenai Peninsula (KP) and Prince William Sound (PWS) region of Southcentral Alaska, located on the traditional territories of the Dena’ina, Ahtna, Alutiiq/Sugpiaq, and Eyak People. The physical and climatological extremes of this region...

Forest Succession and Climate Change Effects on Long-Term Runoff Coefficients at Varying Timescales

Creator:: Crampe, Emily A.
Abstract:: Forest harvesting and climate change induced shifts in precipitation characteristics (i.e., intensity, type) may affect how water is partitioned on the landscape, with more water potentially being lost to evaporation or groundwater, and less water being partitioned into the stream. Long-term, paired watershed data allows us to assess these possible...

Shallow aquifer storage and recovery (SASR): Regional management of underground water storage in hydraulically connected aquifer-stream systems

Creator:: Neumann, Philip E.
Abstract:: A novel mode of shallow aquifer management could increase the volumetric potential and distribution of underground, freshwater storage: Shallow aquifer storage and recovery (SASR). In this mode, water is efficiently stored in basin fill aquifers with strong hydraulic connection to surface water. Regional numerical modeling can provide a linkage between...

Canopy Effects on the Snow Hydrology of a Forested Mountain Environment in the Pacific Northwest, USA

Creator:: Roth, Travis R.
Abstract:: Rising global temperatures are having lasting effects on mountain snow environments in the form of diminishing snowpacks, shorter accumulation seasons, and shifts in meltwater timing. Seasonal snowpack is a vital source of water for natural and human systems. In the forested mountain landscapes of the Pacific Northwest seasonal snowmelt feeds...

A macroscale measurement and modeling approach to improve understanding of the hydrology of steep, forested hillslopes

Creator:: Graham, Christopher Brian
Abstract:: The dominant controls on flow generation in steep, forested hillslopes are poorly understood. This dissertation examined the dominant flow processes operating at the hillslope scale, using a combined macroscale measurement and model development and analysis framework. Irrigation experiments at two steep forested hillslopes were conducted to isolate individual hillslope flow...

Surface Water - Groundwater Interactions in Clayey Pasture fields in the WIllamette Valley

Creator:: Gómez, Daniel G.
Abstract:: As the western United States continues to experience prolonged drought that is extending water deficits and threatening ecosystem resilience and socioeconomic systems, it will be vital to understand the relationship between water use and transport for proper water resource management. This is especially important to the agricultural areas of the...

Present-day and future contributions of glacier melt to the Upper Middle Fork Hood River : implications for water management

Creator:: Phillippe, Jeff
Abstract:: Glaciers are effective reservoirs because they moderate variations in runoff and supply reliable flow during drought periods. Thus, there needs to be a clear understanding of the influence of glacier runoff at both the basin and catchment scale. The objectives of this study were to quantify the late summer contributions...

Climate change impacts on mountain snowpack presented in a knowledge to action framework

Creator:: Sproles, Eric A.
Abstract:: Throughout many of the world’s mountain ranges snowpack accumulates during the winter and into the spring, providing a natural reservoir for water. As this reservoir melts, it fills streams and recharges groundwater for over 1 billion people globally. Despite its importance to water resources, our understanding of the storage capacity...
