Zhang , Qinghuan 1 ; Williams , Mark 2 ; Livneh , Ben 3 1 University of Colorado Boulder 2 University of Colorado Boulder 3 University of Colorado Boulder Mountainous areas have complex geological features and climatic variability, which limit our ability to simulate and predict hydrologic processes in these...
Wilson , Colleen E 1 ; Gooseff , Michael N 2 1 INSTAAR 2 INSTAAR Aquatic ecosystem temperature regulation is essential to the survival of riverine fish species restricted to limited water temperature ranges. Dissolved oxygen levels, similarly necessary to fish health, are decreased by rising temperatures, as warmer waters...
Webb , Ryan 1 1 Institute of Arctic and Alpine Research, University of Colorado Snow is an important environmental variable in headwater systems that controls hydrological processes such as streamflow, groundwater recharge, and evapotranspiration. These processes will be affected by both the amount of snow available for melt and the...
