Changes in hyporheic exchange flow following experimental large wood removal in a second order, low gradient stream, Chichagof Island, AK

Creator:

La Nier, Justin

Abstract:

Hyporheic Exchange Flow (HEF) is driven by head gradients defined by the hydro-topography of the stream surface, which is controlled by the particular geomorphology of the stream. We quantified the impact of large wood, which typically exerts a strong control on stream morphology, on HEF in a second order, low...

Physical dimensions and hydrologic effects of beaver ponds on Kuiu Island in southeast Alaska

Creator:

Beedle, David L.

Abstract:

Dimensional characteristics of 44 beaver dams and ponds on Kuiu Island in Southeast Alaska were determined to evaluate the hydrologic effects of these structures on peak flows. The study area consisted of low gradient, incised streams in broad U-shaped valleys. Pond routing simulations were conducted using four return intervals (2-,...
