Temporal and spatial variability of groundwater nitrate in the southern Willamette Valley of Oregon

Creator:: Mutti, Jeffrey Glenn
Abstract:: Groundwater nitrate contamination is a well-documented issue in the Southern Willamette Valley (SWV) of Oregon, as a Groundwater Management Area (GWMA) has recently been declared. As a GWMA, groundwater nitrate monitoring must occur until regional concentrations are below 7 mg/L NO3-N. However, the presence of temporal variability can make it...

Quantification of the nitrate attenuation capacity of low-permeability Missoula Flood deposits in the Willamette Valley of Oregon

Creator:: Arighi, Louis M.
Abstract:: Low-permeability geologic units may offer significant chemical and hydraulic protection of adjacent aquifers, and are important for managing groundwater quality, especially in areas with significant non-point source contamination. Nitrate in the Willamette Valley is attenuated across the Willamette Silt, a semi-confining unit overlying a regionally important aquifer. To quantify the...

An eleven year study of nitrate leaching in vegetable production with winter cover crops

Creator:: Feaga, Jeff
Abstract:: The Willamette Valley of Oregon has high rates of winter precipitation that cause leaching losses of residual fertilizer nitrogen (N) as nitrate (NO₃). Cover crops may have potential to mitigate N loss. Shallow groundwater was sampled for 11 years from plots planted in summer vegetables with and without winter cover...

Chemical and isotopic patterns of nitrate variability in the southern Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Vick, Christopher Flanders
Abstract:: A relatively stable, persistent and historical problem with elevated NO₃⁻ concentrations in rural drinking wells in the southern Willamette Valley, Oregon is evident. What is the origin of NO₃⁻ in rural drinking water wells in this area? The answer to the question is not simple. Many non-point sources contribute to...

An analysis of well water quality and local residents' perceptions of drinking water quality in the southern Willamette Valley

Creator:: Kite-Powell, Aaron C.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to; (1) determine the extent of well water contamination with nitrate and pesticides, and to understand the relationships among nitrate, pesticide, dissolved chloride, dissolved sulfate, well age, and well depth in the southern Willamette Valley, Oregon; and, (2) to investigate local residents' perceptions and...

Hydrogeologic field investigation and groundwater flow model of the southern Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Craner, Jeremy D.
Abstract:: Elevated groundwater nitrate (NO3 -) concentrations in the Southern Willamette Valley (SWV) caused the Oregon Department of Environmental Quality (ODEQ) to declare a Groundwater Management Area (GWMA) in Spring, 2004. To better understand direction of groundwater flow, groundwater age, and nitrate transport pathways of the SWV we developed a steady-state...

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...

Agricultural field burning plume rise

Creator:: Azarbaijani, Masoud
Abstract:: Many agricultural fields are burned in the Willamette Valley of Oregon during the summer for economic reasons. A major air pollution problem results from these burnings. The purpose of this study was to develop relations between the maximum plume height and some of the independent variables affecting this plume height,...
