Sediment production and delivery in Pistol River, Oregon and its effects on pool morphology

Creator:: Russell, Periann
Abstract:: Sediment production and delivery in Pacific Northwest coastal streams can have damaging effects on channel morphology and anadromous fish habitat. The research in Pistol River was designed to determine if a link exists between sediment delivery processes and degradation of fish habitat. Objectives of this basin-wide analysis were to: 1)...

Patterns and processes of sediment transport following sediment-filled dam removal in gravel bed rivers

Creator:: Stewart, Gregory B.
Abstract:: Dam removal is increasingly viewed as a river restoration tool because dams affect so many aspects of river hydrology, geomorphology, and ecology; but removal also has impacts. When a dam is removed, sediment accumulated over a dam’s lifetime may be transported downstream; and the timing, fate and consequences of this...

Patterns of hillslope and channel recovery following disturbances in steep, forested basins

Creator:: Madej, Mary Ann
Abstract:: Geomorphic response to watershed disturbances commonly results in alterations of landforms. Subsequent geomorphic recovery is dependent on the ability of flows to entrain, transport, and organize inorganic and organic material on hillslopes and in channels. This research analyzed changes in sediment production, channel structure, and channel organization following disturbances in...

Contrasting geomorphic responses to climatic, anthropogenic, and fluvial change across modern to millennial time scales, Clackamas River, Oregon

Creator:: Wampler, Peter J.
Abstract:: Geomorphic change along the lower Clackamas River is occurring at a millennial scale due to climate change; a decadal scale as a result River Mill Dam operation; and at an annual scale since 1996 due to a meander cutoff. Channel response to these three mechanisms is incision. Holocene strath terraces,...

Will we need to change the rules : assessing the implications of climate change for dam operations in Oregon's McKenzie River Basin

Creator:: Danner, Allison G.
Abstract:: Dams and reservoirs are important components of water resource management systems, but their operational sensitivity to streamflow variability may make them vulnerable to climate change. Climate change is likely to affect the magnitude and timing of streamflow, motivating the assessment of potential impacts on dams and reservoirs. Here I examine...

The Effects of the Flow Regime on Stream Channel Form and Processes

Creator:: Hempel, Laura A.
Abstract:: Numerous studies have explored how alluvial channel size and morphology are adjusted to different sediment and flow conditions, yet we still know very little about how and to what degree the flow regime controls channel form and processes. We use the term ‘channel form’ to refer to the size and...

Construction, Degradation, and Restoration of Wet Meadow Ecosystems in Semi-arid Landscapes, Northern Great Basin, USA

Creator:: Nash, Caroline S.
Abstract:: Wet meadow ecosystems are a useful natural laboratory in which to explore feedbacks between biogenic and geologic controls on valley bottom landforms. Characterized by flat valley floors flanked by higher-gradient hillslopes, these meadows are singular both in that they represent depositional features in what is primarily an erosional environment, and...

Geology, flooding & human activities : establishing a hierarchy of influence for controls on historic channel change, Willamette River, Oregon

Creator:: Wallick, Jennifer Rose
Abstract:: Channel evolution and influences of changing floodplain characteristics, heterogenous bank materials, and altered flow regimes were examined along the Willamette River, a large alluvial river in northwestern Oregon. The Willamette River is composed of a series of geomorphically diverse reaches, which have each evolved uniquely in the century following Euro-American...
