Creator:: Grant, Gordon E., Tague, Christina, Safeeq, Mohammad, and Lewis, Sarah
Abstract:: Spatial patterns of summer streamflow in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon vary dramatically between the geologically distinct High and Western Cascade regions. A key control is the partitioning of water input between a fast-draining shallow subsurface flow network (Western Cascades) versus a slow-draining deeper groundwater system (High Cascades). These differences...

Creator:: Brooks, J. Renee, Wigington, Parker J. Jr, Kendall, Carol, Coulombe, Rob, Comeleo, Randy, and Rodecap, Kent
Abstract:: Climate change is expected to dramatically alter the timing and quantity of water within the nation’s river systems. These changes are driven by variation in the form, location and amount of precipitation that will affect the temporal and spatial distribution of river source water over time. To manage the impact...

Full Text:: ? What is the impact of changing snowpack? Elevation pattern specific to West Coast Characterization

Creator:: Gleason, Kelly E. and Nolin, Anne W.
Abstract:: As a result of warming temperatures and subsequently declining snowpacks, forest fires are increasing in frequency, intensity and extent across the western USA. In turn, forest fire disturbance affects patterns of snow accumulation and ablation by reducing canopy interception and modifying the snowpack energy balance. Following a 2011, high severity...

Creator:: Campana, Michael E.
Abstract:: The specter of climate change looms large over Oregon. Although hydroclimatologic models predict a warmer Oregon, the total volume of precipitation may not change significantly. However, the character (rain vs. snow) and spatial and temporal distributions of precipitation will likely change. The state is already witnessing earlier snowmelt in the...
