Creator:: Peck, Dannele E.
Abstract:: The impact of recent severe droughts throughout the United States, the potential for climate change to intensify the frequency and severity of drought, and discussion about the future of government assistance in agriculture highlight the need for a transition from drought as ‘disaster’ to drought as ‘managed risk’. However, guidance...

Creator:: Wells, Scott A., Berger, Christopher, Knutson, Mike, and Oregon State University. Water Resources Research Institute
Abstract:: The goal of this phase of the study was to develop a model of the Tualatin River incorporating Scoggins Creek and Hagg Lake. This tool will be used in conjunction with a hydrologic model, the EPA HSPF model (Johnson, Imhoff, and Kittle, 1984), to analyze management strategies to improve water...

Creator:: Vedanayagam, Samuel, Nelson, Peter O., and Oregon State University. Water Resources Research Institute
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to develop a mass-balance model for total suspended solids in the Tualatin River in order to better understand the clarity-turbidity problem in the river. Major sources and sinks of suspended solids in the river were identified, and seasonal effects were explored. The study also...

Creator:: Waring, Richard H., Running, S. W., Holbo, Harold Richard, Kline, J. R., U.S. International Biological Program. Coniferous Forest Biome, and University of Washington
Abstract:: In the Coniferous Forest Biome, many of the understory as well as dominant plants are evergreen and thus water uptake is a year around process. The flow of water from the soil through plants to the atmosphere affects the entire forest ecosystem. As water is evaporated, it absorbs heat and...

Creator:: Tang, Fei
Abstract:: The Tualatin River Basin is located in the Washington County, Oregon. The river was detected having high chlorophyll a concentration and low dissolved oxygen concentration during summer time, which violated DEQ water quality standards. A mathematical model (HSPF) was used to simulate physical, chemical and biological processes in the basin...
