The background for this paper is the use of quadrature formulas
for the solution of ordinary differential equations. If we know the
values of the dependent variable for which we are solving, and its
derivative, at several equally spaced points, i.e., at values of the independent
variable separated by equal...
The Walla Walla Basin, in Eastern Oregon and Washington, USA, faces challenges in sustaining an agricultural water supply while maintaining sufficient flow in the Walla Walla River for endangered fish populations. Minimum summer river flow of 0.71 m³/s is required, forcing irrigators to substitute groundwater from a declining aquifer for...
To determine if a storm event (i.e., high winds, large volumes of precipitation) could
alter concentrations of Vibrio vulnificus and V. parahaemolyticus in aquacultured oysters
(Crassostrea virginica) and associated surface water and sediment, this study followed a
sampling timeline before and after Hurricane Irene impacted the Chesapeake Bay estuary in...
The Consortium of Universities for the Advancement of Hydrologic Sciences, Inc. (CUAHSI) began the Hydrologic Measurement Facility (HMF) program in June 2005 to advance hydrologic measurement capability within the research community. To provide guidance for this effort, a recent survey assessed the level of need among the hydrological sciences community...
Vibrio vulnificus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus are ubiquitous in the marine–estuarine environment, but the
magnitude of human non-ingestion exposure to these waterborne pathogens is largely unknown. We evaluated
the magnitude of dermal exposure to V. vulnificus and V. parahaemolyticus among swimmers recreating in Vibrio-populated
waters by conducting swim studies at four...

Whitebark pine (Pinus albicaulis) inhabits an expansive range in western North America, and it is a keystone species of subalpine environments. Whitebark is susceptible to multiple threats – climate change, white pine blister rust, mountain pine beetle, and fire exclusion – and it is suffering significant mortality range-wide, prompting the...
