Moody , John A 1 1 U.S. Geological Survey Extreme floods often follow wildfire in mountainous watersheds. The peak discharge for these post-wildfire floods has been shown to correlate with rainfall intensity. The relation between rainfall intensity and peak discharge per unit basin area is based on data from several...

McKenzie , Valerie J. 1 1 University of Colorado Parasitic and infectious diseases are a significant threat to human, livestock, and wildlife health and are changing dramatically in the face of human-induced environmental changes such as those in climate and land use. In this talk, I explore the little-studied but...

McGlynn , Brian 1 1 Montana State University The relationships between landscape characteristics, water redistribution, and catchment runoff dynamics remain poorly understood. Hydrologic connectivity between catchment upland and near stream areas is essential for the transmission of water and solutes to streams and controls both the magnitude and signature of...

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...

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...

Ebert , Jessica L 1 ; Driscoll , Charles T 2 1 University of Colorado at Boulder 2 Syracuse University Urban stormwater runoff is a critical water quality problem for older cities in the Northeast, including Syracuse NY. In this study we examined the response of Onondaga Creek to high...

Dittrich , Timothy M 1 ; Ryan , Joseph N 2 1 University of Colorado-Boulder 2 University of Colorado-Boulder The presence of small particles (colloids) in natural soil and groundwater systems has been well established. Under certain environmental conditions, the sorption of contaminants to mobile colloids can increase transport in...
