Abstract: Restoration of degraded wet meadows found on upland valley floors has been proposed to achieve a range of ecological benefits, including augmenting late‐season streamflow. There are, however, few field and modelling studies documenting hydrologic changes following restoration that can be used to validate this expectation, and published changes in groundwater levels and streamflow following restoration are inconclusive. Here, we assess the streamflow benefit that can be obtained by wet‐meadow restoration using a physically based quantitative analysis. This framework employs a 1‐dimensional linearized Boussinesq equation with a superimposed solution for changes in storage due to groundwater upwelling and...

This U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) Data Release provides high resolution water temperature data collected at a long-term monitoring site in Dexter Reservoir, Oregon, USA, May 29 to July 20, 2014. All data are reported as raw measured values in degrees Celsius (°C) and are not rounded to USGS significant figures. A distributed temperature sensing cable was used for high resolution measurement of water temperatures throughout the water column at the long-term monitoring site, which has persistent summer cyanobacterial blooms.
ScienceBase brings together the best information it can find about USGS researchers and offices to show connections to publications, projects, and data. We are still working to improve this process and information is by no means complete. If you don't see everything you know is associated with you, a colleague, or your office, please be patient while we work to connect the dots. Feel free to contact sciencebase@usgs.gov.
