Creator:: Squeochs, Graysen M.
Abstract:: Increased water temperatures and thermal loading due to anthropogenic inputs has been shown to negatively impact the lifecycles of aquatic organisms in riverine systems (Poole and Berman 2001; Hannah, Malcolm et al. 2004; Quinn, Gagne et al. 2004). The studies enclosed in this thesis evaluate and quantify the heat fluxes...

Creator:: Jimmie, Jordan A.
Abstract:: Diking and channelizing in the Toppenish Creek basin, associated with irrigated agricultural development, has altered its natural ecosystem function and hydraulic processes. We seek to answer two research questions: if surface waters are diverted for aquifer recharge in the winter, will this water be available for ecosystem function in the...

Creator:: Jansik, Danielle P.
Abstract:: Engineered capillary barriers typically consist of two layers of granular materials designed so that the contrast in sediment hydrologic properties and sloping interface retains infiltrating water in the upper layer. We report here on the results of two bench-top capillary barrier experiments, and associated modeling. These experiments were conducted to...

Creator:: Gombert, Carolyn E.
Abstract:: The thermal regime of rivers plays a key role in aquatic ecosystem health. In the Willamette River, OR, the present day main channel temperature is often too warm for cold water fishes during the late spring, summer, and early fall. At these times, cold water fishes tend to be concentrated...

Creator:: Boylan, Nora C.
Abstract:: With decreasing snowpacks and changing precipitation patterns, Washington State seeks ways to conserve, protect, and enhance its water supply. Stream restoration has been viewed as a means to utilize alluvial aquifers for groundwater storage and augment late-season streamflow. However, the relationship between stream restoration and groundwater dynamics is still under...
