The Role of Headwater Streams in Downstream Water Quality1Journal of the American Water Resources Association - Tập 43 Số 1 - Trang 41-59 - 2007
Richard B. Alexander, Elizabeth W. Boyer, Richard A. Smith, Gregory E. Schwarz, Richard B. Moore
Abstract: Knowledge of headwater influences on the water‐quality and flow
conditions of downstream waters is essential to water‐resource management at all
governmental levels; this includes recent court decisions on the jurisdiction of
the Federal Clean Water Act (CWA) over upland areas that contribute to larger
downstream water bodies. We review current watershed research and use a
water‐quality... hiện toàn bộ

Effects of Impervious Cover at Multiple Spatial Scales on Coastal Watershed Streams1Journal of the American Water Resources Association - Tập 43 Số 3 - Trang 712-730 - 2007
Roy Schiff, Gaboury Benoit
Abstract: The spatial scale and location of land whose development has the
strongest influence on aquatic ecosystems must be known to support land use
decisions that protect water resources in urbanizing watersheds. We explored
impacts of urbanization on streams in the West River watershed, New Haven,
Connecticut, to identify the spatial scale of watershed imperviousness that was
most strongly re... hiện toàn bộ
POTENTIAL EFFECTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON SURFACE‐WATER QUALITY IN NORTH AMERICA1Journal of the American Water Resources Association - Tập 36 Số 2 - Trang 347-366 - 2000
Peter S. Murdoch, Jill S. Baron, Timothy L. Miller
ABSTRACT:Data from long‐term ecosystem monitoring and research stations in North
America and results of simulations made with interpretive models indicate that
changes in climate (precipitation and temperature) can have a significant effect
on the quality of surface waters. Changes in water quality during storms,
snowmelt, and periods of elevated air temperature or drought can cause
conditions tha... hiện toàn bộ
AN EXAMINATION OF RELATIVE PERMEABILITY RELATIONS FOR TWO‐PHASE FLOW IN POROUS MEDIA1Journal of the American Water Resources Association - Tập 23 Số 4 - Trang 617-628 - 1987
Avery H. Demond, Paul V. Roberts
ABSTRACT: A key parameter in modeling two‐phase flow phenomena is relative
permeability. It is important to understand which variables influence relative
permeability, especially since so few measurements of relative permeability have
been made for typical contaminants at hazardous waste sites. This paper focuses
on the effect of five variables on relative permeability: intrinsic
permeability, por... hiện toàn bộ
AN EXAMINATION OF LAND USE ‐ NUTRIENT EXPORT RELATIONSHIPS1Journal of the American Water Resources Association - Tập 18 Số 6 - Trang 1013-1024 - 1982
Michael Beaulac, Kenneth H. Reckhow
ABSTRACT: Lake and watershed management strategies and recent environmental
legislation dictate that nonpoht nutrient sources associated with storm water
runoff must be assessed. Accordingly, a nutrient flu assessment for phosphorus
and nitrogen is conducted through an extensive literature review of nutrient
export studies. These studies are reevaluated. The nutrient export coefficients
are screen... hiện toàn bộ
The Stream‐Catchment (StreamCat) Dataset: A Database of Watershed Metrics for the Conterminous United StatesJournal of the American Water Resources Association - Tập 52 Số 1 - Trang 120-128 - 2016
Ryan A. Hill, Matt Weber, Scott G. Leibowitz, Anthony R. Olsen, Darren J. Thornbrugh
AbstractWe developed an extensive database of landscape metrics for ~2.65
million stream segments, and their associated catchments, within the
conterminous United States (U.S.): The Stream‐Catchment (StreamCat) Dataset.
These data are publically available
(http://www2.epa.gov/national-aquatic-resource-surveys/streamcat) and greatly
reduce the specialized geospatial expertise needed by researchers ... hiện toàn bộ
WATER QUALITY AND SOURCE OF FRESHWATER DISCHARGE TO THE CALOOSAHATCHEE ESTUARY, FLORIDA1Journal of the American Water Resources Association - Tập 35 Số 4 - Trang 793-806 - 1999
Peter H. Doering, Robert H. Chamberlain
ABSTRACT: The Caloosahatchee River has two major sources of freshwater one from
its watershed and the other via an artificial connection to Lake Okeechobee. The
contribution of each source to the freshwater discharge reaching the downstream
estuary varies and either may dominate. Routine monitoring data were analyzed to
determine the effects of total river discharge and source of discharge (river

PLANNING FOR DROUGHT: MOVING FROM CRISIS TO RISK MANAGEMENT1Journal of the American Water Resources Association - Tập 36 Số 4 - Trang 697-710 - 2000
Donald A. Wilhite, Michael J. Hayes, Cody Knutson, Kelly Helm Smith
ABSTRACT: Severe drought is a recurring problem for the United States, as
illustrated by widespread economic, social, and environmental impacts. Recent
drought episodes and the widespread drought conditions in 1996, 1998, and 1999
emphasized this vulnerability and the need for a more proactive, risk management
approach to drought management that would place greater emphasis on preparedness
