Adjoint Based Approach To Quantifying Stream Depletion Due To Aquifer Pumping Using A One-Dimensional Coupled Surface And Groundwater Model

Aug. 17, 2018

Griebling , Scott A 1 ; Neupauer , Roseanna M 2 1 University of Colorado 2 University of Colorado With growing populations and increased demand for water, it is necessary to ensure that increased pumping of aquifers does not reduce flows in rivers to levels that would limit the availability...

A Conceptual Model Of Water Quantity Impacts From Insect-Induced Tree Death In Coniferous Forests

Aug. 17, 2018

Gordon , Eric 1 ; Pugh , Evan 2 1 Western Water Assessment 2 University of Colorado Boulder In snow-dominated regions, forested watersheds often provide a considerable portion of the downstream water resources, and tree death can significantly alter many ecohydrologic processes including transpiration, canopy transmission and interception, subcanopy wind...

Using Fluorescence Spectroscopy And PARAFAC Analysis To Characterize The Water-Soluble Organic Matter And Associated Dissolved Organic Matter In A First Order Alpine Catchment

Aug. 17, 2018

Gabor , Rachel 1 ; McKnight , Diane 2 1 University of Colorado-Boulder 2 University of Colorado-Boulder The increasing concentrations of dissolved organic matter observed in many northern latitude regions have potentially significant effects on both ecosystem dynamics and water treatment processes. Many hypotheses for the cause of this change...
