(2006-01-27)
2 Assessment of the Impacts of Climate Change on the Water Allocation, Water Quality and Salmon Production in the San Joaquin River Basin H. Hidalgo, L. Brekke, N. Miller, N. Quinn, J. Keyantash and J. Dracup INTRODUCTION ...
Associations of decadal to multidecadal sea-surface temperature variability with Upper Colorado River flow
(2007-02)
The relations of decadal to multidecadal (D2M) variability in global sea-surface temperatures (SSTs)
with D2M variability in the flow of the Upper Colorado River Basin (UCRB) are examined for the years 1906-
2003. Results ...
Warming and Earlier Spring Increase Western U.S. Forest Wildfire Activity
(2006-08-18)
Western United States forest wildfire activity is widely thought to have increased in recent decades, yet neither the extent of recent changes nor the degree to which climate may be driving regional changes in wildfire has ...
Attribution of Declining Western U.S. Snowpack to Human Effects
(2008-12-01)
Observations show snowpack has declined across much of the western United States over the period 1950–99. This reduction has important social and economic implications, as water retained in the snowpack from winter storms ...
Recent Eurasian river discharge to the Arctic Ocean in the context of longer-term dendrohydrological records
(2007-12-29)
Mapped correlations between annual discharges (AD 1938–1990) of the major Eurasian rivers entering the Arctic Ocean (Severnaya Dvina, Pechora, Ob', Yenisey, Lena, and Kolyma) demonstrate a positive relationship between ...
The Western U.S. Drought: How Bad Is It?
(2014-08-10)
Historical stream flow records and the forecast for 2004 make the current (1999–2004) drought in the southwestern United States the worst one in the past 80 years for portions of the Upper Colorado River Basin (UCRB).
For ...
Detection and Attribution of Temperature Changes in the Mountainous Western United States
(2008-04-22)
Large changes in the hydrology of the western United States have been observed since the mid-twentieth century. These include a reduction in the amount of precipitation arriving as snow, a decline in snowpack at low and ...
Five Hundred Years of Hydrological Drought in the Upper Colorado River Basin
(2007-06)
This article evaluates drought scenarios of the Upper Colorado River basin (UCRB) considering
multiple drought variables for the past 500 years and positions the current drought in terms of the magnitude
and frequency. ...
Associations of multi-decadal sea-surface temperature variability with US drought
(2008-09)
Recent research suggests a link between drought occurrence in the conterminous United States (US) and sea surface temperature (SST) variability in both the tropical Pacific and North Atlantic Oceans on decadal to multidecadal ...
