  1. Streamflow Analysis and a Comparison of Hydrologic Metrics in Urban Streams

    This study investigates the hydrologic effects of urbanization in two Portland, Oregon streams through a comparison of three hydrologic metrics. Hydrologic metrics used in this study are the mean annual runoff...

  2. The Nisqually Watershed From the Summit to the Sound: A Field Guide

    Occasional Papers in Geography Publication No. 6

  3. An Assessment of the Impacts of Climate Change on the Upper Clackamas River Basin with a Distributed Hydrologic Model

    The Pacific Northwest is dependent on seasonal snowmelt for water resources that support a significant portion of its economy. Increased temperatures resulting from higher concentrations of atmospheric...

  4. Getting Salmon Back in Salmon Creek: Systematizing Comparative Water Quality Analysis for Targeted Restoration

    This presentation focuses on water quality restoration efforts in Salmon Creek

  5. Oxygen Demand Trends, Land Cover Change, and Water Quality Management for an Urbanizing Oregon Watershed

    In-stream aquatic habitat depends on adequate levels of dissolved oxygen. Human alteration of the landscape has an extensive influence on the biogeochemical processes that drive oxygen cycling in streams....

  6. Impacts of Climate Change and Urban Development on Water Resources in the Tualatin River Basin

    Potential impacts of climate change on the water resources of the Pacific Northwest of the United States include earlier peak runoff, reduced summer flows, and increased winter flooding. An increase in...

  7. Science and Practice of Integrated River Basin Management : Lessons from North and Central American UNESCO-HELP Basins

    The Hydrology for the Environment, Life and Policy (HELP) program, a cross-cutting component of the UNESCO International Hydrological Programme (IHP), has as its goal to facilitate dialogue among hydrologists,...

  8. Stream Temperature Management in the Tualatin Watershed: Is it Improving Salmonid Habitat?

    The purpose of this paper is to examine the literature from scientific and governmental entities that describes the problems with elevated stream temperatures in the Tualatin basin, the actions being taken to...

  9. The Effects of Climate Change and Urbanization on the Runoff of the Rock Creek Basin

    Climate changes brought on by global warming are expected to have a significant affect on the Pacific Northwest hydrology during the 21st Century. Current research anticipates higher mean annual temperatures...

  10. Future Flooding Impacts on Transportation Infrastructure and Traffic Patterns Resulting from Climate Change

    This study investigated potential impacts of climate change on travel disruption resulting from road closures in two urban watersheds in the Portland metropolitan area. We used ensemble climate change...
