Quantifying riparian canopy energy attenuation and stream temperature using an energy balance approach
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
of the central U.S. Hydroclimate data were collected from two intensively instrumented stream reaches of opposite orthogonal compass orientation in a semi-karst watershed on the border of southern Missouri's Ozark region, USA, during the 2010 water year. Data...
A multi-configuration evaluation of the soil and water assessment tool (SWAT) in a mixed land use watershed in the central U.S.A.
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
multi-objective auto-calibration better predicted monthly flow (PBIAS=1%, NSE=0.8) than single-objective calibration (PBIAS=16%, NSE=0.5). SWAT performs well in Central U.S. urbanizing watersheds. Accuracy can improve with auto-calibration as presented...
Quantifying suspended sediment loading in a mid-Missouri urban watershed using laser particle diffraction
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
Midwestern streams and rivers of the United States are known for high suspended sediment concentrations (SSC), which is also one of the leading sources of water impairment. Unfortunately, there is a lack of understanding ...
Macroinvertebrate assemblage composition along a longitudinal multiple-land-use gradient in a midwestern stream
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
Land use changes often alter hydrogeomorphology and hydrologic flow regimes, which can adversely impact stream aquatic biota. Hinkson Creek Watershed (HCW, 231km2) located in Boone County, central Missouri, is comprised of 50% agriculture, 26...
