| Notes | This study contrasts catchments in the Drift Creek basin with catchments in the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest in the Willamette Valley in order to explore the different factors that cause river basins to respond to changes in land use such as logging. It provides a detailed look at the hydrology of these areas. "Our results provide new process-insights to how water is stored, extracted, and discharged from our forested catchments in Western Oregon that will help better explain how forest removal influences streamflow across multiple scales and geological conditions." (from the Abstract) Major professor was Jeffrey J. McDonnell. |
