  • Water residence time and runoff generation in the western Cascades of Oregon

    Creator:
    McGuire, Kevin J.
    Abstract:
    The age, or residence time of water is a fundamental descriptor of catchment hydrology, revealing information about the storage, flow pathways and source of water in a single integrated measure. While there has been tremendous recent interest in residence time to characterize catchments, there are few studies that quantify residence...

  • Climate change impacts on mountain snowpack presented in a knowledge to action framework

    Creator:
    Sproles, Eric A.
    Abstract:
    Throughout many of the world’s mountain ranges snowpack accumulates during the winter and into the spring, providing a natural reservoir for water. As this reservoir melts, it fills streams and recharges groundwater for over 1 billion people globally. Despite its importance to water resources, our understanding of the storage capacity...

  • Reducing sediment production from forest roads during wet-weather use

    Creator:
    Toman, Elizabeth Myers
    Abstract:
    Forest roads produce fine sediment with traffic during wet weather. If the forest road is connected to a stream it can be a source of turbidity and fine sediment that may be detrimental to aquatic organisms especially salmonids. The goal of this work was to investigate turbid runoff during wet-weather...
