Seventy years of watershed response to floods and changing forestry practices in western Oregon, USA

Arianna C. C. Goodman et al.

Summary: This study analyzed the impact of 70 years of clearcutting and road construction on the Lookout Creek watershed in Western Oregon. It found that the watershed response to floods was influenced by the timing of forestry practices, past geomorphic events, and forest dynamics, rather than flood magnitude. The study also revealed that the flood responses were more significant during the initial period of road construction and logging compared to after logging had ceased.

Changes in suspended-sediment yields under divergent land-cover disturbance histories: A comparison of two large watersheds, Olympic Mountains, USA

Kristin L. L. Jaeger et al.

Summary: Improvements in timber harvest practices and reductions in harvest volumes have been presumed to reduce sediment loads in western US rivers. However, there is a lack of direct assessments in larger watersheds. This study compared sediment concentrations in the Bogachiel and Calawah River watersheds in Washington State and found significant declines in suspended-sediment loads over the past half century, with reduced land-cover disturbance being the likely explanation for the decline in the Calawah River.

Debris flow initiation in postglacial terrain: Insights from shallow landslide initiation models and geomorphic mapping in Southeast Alaska

Annette Patton et al.

Summary: This study conducted a geomorphic investigation and modeling analysis to evaluate the debris flow process in postglacial terrain. The results showed that volcanic tephra soils and timber harvest are important controls on debris flow occurrence. The application of the SHALSTAB model successfully predicted areas of high landslide potential. This study demonstrates the practical utility of hazards analysis in postglacial landscapes.

How Does Precipitation Variability Control Bedload Response Across a Mountainous Channel Network in a Maritime Climate?

Jeffrey Keck et al.

Summary: In this study, the authors found that using daily precipitation data to drive sediment transport models can lead to significant underestimation of bedload transport capacity. The error introduced can range from 10% to over two orders of magnitude, depending on the location in the channel network. These findings have implications for flood-hazard and aquatic habitat models that rely on coarse-temporal-resolution climate data.

The effects of forest management on water quality

Nadeem W. Shah et al.

Summary: Water quality in forested watercourses is generally high, but forest management can have detrimental effects on water quality and freshwater ecology. This review focuses on the impacts of various forestry activities on water quality, including cultivation, fertilisation, and harvesting. The literature shows that forest operations can lead to sediment delivery, nutrient losses, carbon transport, metal and base cation releases, and changes in acidity and temperature. It is important to consider spatial and temporal resolution, as local-scale changes may not be observed at the catchment level and the effects of operations can manifest many years later. Best management practices, such as the use of buffers and low impact techniques, have reduced and prevented impacts on water quality. Future technological, methodological, and climatic developments may further alter the effects of forest management on water quality.

Natural and anthropogenic controls on sediment rating curves in northern California coastal watersheds

Adam Fisher et al.

Summary: The study investigated the impact of various factors on erosion rates in watersheds along the north coast of California, including tectonic uplift and timber harvest activity. Different relationships, such as power and threshold relationships, were observed in suspended sediment rating curves within the study watersheds. The offsets and slopes of the SRCs varied systematically with regional tectonic uplift and were influenced by intensive timber harvest events.

Frequent Mass Movements From Glacial and Lahar Terraces, Controlled by Both Hillslope Characteristics and Fluvial Erosion, are an Important Sediment Source to Puget Sound Rivers

Daniel N. Scott et al.

Summary: The study revealed that the mass movements from glacial and lahar terraces in the middle and lower reaches of rivers draining the Washington Cascade Range play a significant role in sediment supply, but this aspect is poorly quantified, posing major mass movement hazards. The rates of terrace sediment delivery vary among basins and between adjacent terraces, but the terrace sediment source has a substantial coarse-grained and durable component, increasing its significance to sedimentation in lowland reaches.
