The report describes the results of model calibration and validation, and evaluates the extent to which runoff response to timber harvesting and increased road densities in East Fork Lobster Creek Basin can be simulated, using Precipitation-Runoff Modeling System (PRMS), a deterministic, destributed-parameter-modeling system.
One purpose of this study was to evaluate three commercial
detergents by comparing their removals at 70 and 120°F. of palmitic
acid and clay components of a simulated natural soil which had been
applied to wool yarns by immersion and abrasion methods. These
detergents were a built soap and two...
Wetland ecosystems are considered as potential ecological solutions for increasing the capacity of watersheds to store runoff waters upstream, and thereby, decrease risk of downstream flooding. Especially in tile-drained agricultural landscapes, wetlands constructed to intercept these tiles can serve as storage basins for agricultural runoff, leading to both reduction in...
Declines in populations of anadromous salmonids (Oncorhynchus spp.) in the Columbia River drainage basin have resulted in extensive programs to annually release large numbers of hatchery-raised juvenile salmonids in an effort to support salmonid restoration. The Pacific Flyway population of Caspian terns (Hydroprogne caspia) has grown from around 3,500 nesting...
In this thesis, I examine composition scholarship on the intersections of religious faith and writing pedagogy over the past twenty years, tracing the origins of compositionists' discomfort with religion and focusing on pedagogical approaches for working with religiously-committed students. In particular, I emphasize the way in which these approaches are...
The Columbia River Gillnetter is the pilot of the Lower Columbia River commercial fishing industry, keeping fishermen and the public in touch with today's important issues.
Slowly and half-heartedly the people of America have come to atone for past neglect of a poet who, under painful circumstances, produced the most distinctive and original contributions to American literature. They realize that the follies of his unfortunate life can be put aside and the weight of criticisms let...
