Creator:: Stevens, Carla J.
Abstract:: Upper Klamath Lake (UKL) and Agency Lake in south-central Oregon are hypereutrophic due to phosphorus (P) loading from both geologic and agricultural sources in the watershed. Restoring historic lake-fringe wetlands to provide P sinks around the lakes has been accepted as a favorable means of reducing lake P levels and...

Creator:: Blair, Michael Stuart
Abstract:: A study of phosphorus loading and water quality implications was conducted for the Oregon coastal lakes. The study was based on existing data for lake total phosphorus concentrations and for watershed land uses. A phosphorus mass-balance model was developed to predict lake total phosphorus concentrations from estimated phosphorus loading from...

Full Text:: Oregon coastal lake study : phosphorus loading and water

Creator:: Brenner, Jacqueline M.
Abstract:: The anthropogenic introduction of nutrients to water bodies has been shown to alter the structure and function of natural aquatic ecosystems, yet national EPA lake and reservoir nutrient criteria remain too broad for effective regional water quality management. This study uses a reference site approach to propose numeric nutrient criteria...

Full Text:: nitrogen (TN) and total phosphorus (TP) specifically applicable to lakes and reservoirs in Oregon. Oregon

Creator:: Scherer, Robert A.
Abstract:: High intensity sampling was undertaken to characterize the temporal and spatial variability of oxidized nitrogen (NO3-N + NO2-N), ammonia-nitrogen (NH3-N), total dissolved phosphorus, total unfiltered phosphorus and orthophosphorus (PO4-P) from two adjacent small streams in Western Oregon's Coast Range, Deer Creek (303 ha) and Flynn Creek (203 ha). Deer Creek...

Creator:: Park, Jeong-Gue
Abstract:: Two Oregon reservoirs contaminated by different mercury sources were compared for mercury distribution in sediment and bioaccumulation by fish. The average mercury concentration in the sediment of Cottage Grove reservoir (0.67 ± 0.05 μg/g dry wt) was higher than for Dorena Reservoir (0.12 ± 0.01 μg/g dry wt). Sediment mercury...
