Quantifying the Geomorphic Response of Stage 0 Stream Restoration: A Pilot Project on Whychus Creek

Creator:: Scagliotti, Alex
Abstract:: It is generally accepted in stream ecology that habitat heterogeneity and patchiness at multiple scales increases ecosystem resilience through niche diversification. Heterogeneous stream habitats include a complex mosaic of hydraulic features, large woody debris, anabranches, substrata and channel forms - this complexity tends to increase as streams progress towards later...

A landscape-scale watershed assessment method to support fish passage restoration in Puget Sound, Washington State: An analysis for the Fish Barrier Removal Board

Creator:: Zweifel, Justin C.
Abstract:: In 2014, the Washington State Legislature directed the creation of the Fish Barrier Removal Board (FBRB), a multi-entity committee tasked with the development of a statewide strategy for removing anadromous fish barriers. The strategy shall identify watersheds with the greatest potential for salmon and steelhead recovery and implement the removal...

An ecosystem service approach to inform reactive nitrogen management in the lower Yakima River Basin, Washington

Creator:: Crowell, Morgan
Abstract:: Spatially explicit ecosystem service valuation (ESV) allows for the identification of the location and magnitude of services provided by natural ecosystems to human activities along with a measure of their significance based upon economic valuation. While ESV has been used to provide new insight into land use management, few studies...

Hydraulic characterization and modeling of the Talking Water Garden wetland for evaluation of nitrogen removal

Creator:: Huang, Tao
Abstract:: The purpose of this research is to hydraulically characterize an engineered wetland in Albany, Oregon. The wetland receives treated wastewater from both Albany Millersburg Water Reclamation Facility (AMWRF) and ATI Wah Chang. AMWRF's water is municipal waste water. ATI Wah Chang's water comes from its nearby metal processing plant. The...
