Abstract: A continued important area of research in hydrologic modeling is the issue of spatial and temporal scaling of biogeochemical properties and processes. Hurst analysis, which is a fractal-based scale invariant approach for ...

Abstract: In the coal-mining region of the Appalachians, the Forestry Reclamation Approach (FRA) is currently promoted by the U.S. Dept. of Interior, Office of Surface Mining (OSM). FRA’s goal in establishing native forest cover on ...

Abstract: Watershed recovery from acidic deposition, such as the Noland Divide Watershed in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, is difficult to predict because of complex biogeochemical processes exhibited in soils. Laboratory ...

Abstract: Quarterly base flow water quality data collected from October, 1993 to November, 2002 at 90 stream sites in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park were used in step-wise multiple linear regression models to analyze pH, ...

Abstract: Several methods have been developed to estimate critical shear stress τc and the erodibility coefficient kd for cohesive stream banks/beds. This research compares estimates of these parameters between an in situ minijet ...
