The effects of changing climate on estuarine water levels: a United States Pacific Northwest case study

Creator:: Parker, Kai, Hill, David, García-Medina, Gabriel, and Beamer, Jordan
Abstract:: Climate change impacts on extreme water levels (WLs) at two United States Pacific Northwest estuaries are investigated using a multicomponent process-based modeling framework. The integrated impact of climate change on estuarine forcing is considered using a series of sub-models that track changes to oceanic, atmospheric, and hydrologic controls on hydrodynamics....

What's streamflow got to do with it? A probabilistic simulation of the competing oceanographic and fluvial processes driving extreme along-river water levels

Creator:: Serafin, Katherine A., Ruggiero, Peter, and Parker, Kai
Abstract:: Extreme water levels generating flooding in estuarine and coastal environments are often driven by compound events, where many individual processes such as waves, storm surge, streamflow, and tides coincide. Despite this, extreme water levels are typically modeled in isolated open-coast or estuarine environments, potentially mischaracterizing the true risk of flooding...

Numerical Simulation and Large-Scale Physical Modelling of Coastal Sand Dune Erosion

Creator:: Do, Kideok, Shin, Sungwon, Cox, Daniel, and Yoo, Jeseon
Abstract:: Coastal sand dune system is important in the nearshore environment for sand supply, ecosystem, and hazard mitigation. In this study, a process-based morphological model was performed and the results were compared with large-scale laboratory experimental data. Two-dimensional large-scale laboratory experiments were conducted with 1:6 geometric scale in the large wave...

Quantifying uncertainty in exposure to coastal hazards associated with both climate change and adaptation strategies : a U.S. Pacific Northwest alternative coastal futures analysis

Creator:: Mills, Alexis K., Ruggiero, Peter, Bolte, John P., Serafin, Katherine A., and Lipiec, Eva
Abstract:: Coastal communities face heightened risk to coastal flooding and erosion hazards due to sea-level rise, changing storminess patterns, and evolving human development pressures. Incorporating uncertainty associated with both climate change and the range of possible adaptation measures is essential for projecting the evolving exposure to coastal flooding and erosion, as...

Spatiotemporal distribution of the anti-diabetic drug, metformin, in the lower Columbia River and its effect on phytoplankton growth

Creator:: Cummings, Brittany M.
Abstract:: Water quality impacts both human and ecosystem health. Many pharmaceuticals and personal care products are considered contaminants of emerging concern (CEC) due to their bioactive properties. Among these, metformin—the most commonly prescribed drug for treatment of type 2 diabetes—has been reported at high concentrations (μg L⁻¹) in stream, lake, and...

Coastal protection and conservation on sandy beaches and dunes : Context-dependent tradeoffs in ecosystem service supply

Creator:: Ruggiero, Peter, Seabloom, Eric W., Hacker, Sally D., Biel, Reuben G., and Cohn, Nicholas
Abstract:: Managing multiple ecosystem services (ESs) across landscapes presents a central challenge for ecosystem-based management, because services often exhibit spatiotemporal variation and weak associations with co-occurring ESs. Further focus on the mechanistic relationships among ESs and their underlying biophysical processes provides greater insight into the causes of variation and covariation among...

Exploring biophysical linkages between coastal forestry management practices and aquatic bivalve contaminant exposure

Creator:: Scully-Engelmeyer, Kaegan, Granek, Elise F., Nielsen-Pincus, Max, Lanier, Andy, Rumrill, Steven S., Moran, Patrick, Nilsen, Elena, Hladik, Michelle L., and Pillsbury, Lori
Abstract:: Terrestrial land use activities present cross-ecosystem threats to riverine and marine species and processes. Specifically, pesticide runoff can disrupt hormonal, reproductive, and developmental processes in aquatic organisms, yet non-point source pollution is difficult to trace and quantify. In Oregon, U.S.A., state and federal forestry pesticide regulations, designed to meet regulatory...

Discovery of a dune-building hybrid beachgrass (Ammophila arenaria × A. breviligulata) in the U.S. Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Mostow, Rebecca S., Barreto, Felipe, Biel, Reuben, Meyer, Eli, and Hacker, Sally D.
Abstract:: The production of novel hybrid zones is an ecologically important consequence of globally increasing rates of species introductions and invasions. Interspecific hybridization can facilitate gene flow between parent species or produce novel taxa that may alter invasion dynamics or ecosystem services. The coastal sand dunes of the U.S. Pacific Northwest...

Effects of estuary characteristics and tsunami waveforms on transported sand sheets

Creator:: Armstrong, Emma M.
Abstract:: The details of the 1700 Cascadia Subdction Zone earthquake and tsunami can be better constrained using data from tsunami sand sheets, provided knowledge of the waveform, estuary geometry and bed roughness controls on the deposition pattern of the sand sheet. In this study, we use the hydrodynamic and sediment transport...
