Bergstrom , Anna 1 ; Koch , Joshua 2 ; O'Neel , Shad 3 1 ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ - Boulder 2 U.S. Geological Survey, Anchorage, AK 3 U.S. Geological Survey, Anchorage, AK Rapid ice loss characterizes temperate glacier regions worldwide, with wide-reaching impacts ranging from infrastructure and tourism to ecosystem...

Influence Of Current Velocity On Algal Responses To Nutrients In Poudre Watershed Streams

Beck , Whitney S. 1 ; Poff , N. LeRoy 2 1 Colorado State University 2 Colorado State University Streamflow is a master variable that regulates biological communities in lotic ecosystems. Laboratory studies have shown that current velocity influences how algal communities respond to stream water nutrients. Faster velocities can...

Shifting Flow Paths: How Disturbance Drives Millennial Carbon Export

Barnes , Rebecca T. 1 1 Environmental Science, Colorado College The flux of terrestrial C to rivers has increased relative to pre-industrial levels and a fraction of this flux is aged dissolved organic C (DOC). Once in rivers, C is stored in sediments, exported to the ocean, or (bio)chemically processed...

New Watershed-Based Climate Forecast Products For Hydrologists And Water Managers

Baker , Sarah 1 ; Rajagopalan , Balaji 2 ; Wood , Andrew 3 1 CU Boulder 2 CU Boulder 3 NCAR Operational sub-seasonal to seasonal (S2S) climate predictions have advanced in skill in recent years but are yet to be broadly utilized by stakeholders in the water management sector...

Water Quality Assessment Of Wild And Scenic Rivers

Back , Jennifer 1 1 Water Resources Division, National Park Service The creation of the National Wild and Scenic Rivers System is one of the most significant river conservation achievements in the United States. Provision of good water quality is a key ecosystem service provided by many wild and scenic...

How The West Was Lost

Famiglietti , Jay 1 1 NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory Just as the settling and development of the arid American West was fueled by harnessing its available fresh water, the growing lack of water availability may well be its undoing. California?s epic drought is just the latest example of what is...

Longitudinal Stream Profile Analysis In Taiwan

Yanites , Brian J 1 ; Tucker , Greg 2 1 ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ 2 ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½ The growth of active tectonic structures is reflected in topographic properties such as hillslope steepness, local and regional relief, and longitudinal stream profiles. Preliminary results of three major rivers from the island...

Assessing The Effects Of Streamflow Changes And Local Shear Stress Variations On The New Zealand Mud Snail In Boulder Creek, Colorado

Wynne , Kristina 1 ; Pitlick , John 2 1 ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½, Department of Geography 2 ÀÖ²¥´«Ã½, Department of Geography In November, 2004, the invasive New Zealand mud snail (NZMS) was confirmed in Colorado. Previous studies of the NZMS in streams of the northern Rocky Mountains have...
