Title: Pre-restoration baseflow dissolved nutrient dynamics in an urban forested headwater system, Charlotte NC
Author: Wickliff, Ella
Date Created: 2018
Subjects--Topical: Environmental sciences, Water resources development--Management, Hydrology
Description: Headwaters provide ecosystem services for humans such as clean water, recreational opportunities, nutrient removal, and biodiversity. Baseline stream nutrient and TSS concentrations and loadings are valuable water quality characteristics to quanti...

Title: Quantification of In-Stream and Riparian Denitrification Potential and Environmental Drivers of Denitrification Following Stream Restoration in the Piedmont Region of North Carolina
Author: Welsh, Molly
Date Created: 2014
Subjects--Topical: Environmental engineering, Environmental sciences, Hydrology
Description: Agricultural streams are subject to considerable disturbance including channelization, erosion, and sedimentation. Fertilizer is often applied to agricultural fields in excess of crop demand, and nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) can be transported ...

Title: Dissolved Organic Carbon and Dissolved Inorganic Carbon along an Urbanization Gradient in Charlotte, North Carolina
Author: Kiker, Taylor
Date Created: 2018
Subjects--Topical: Hydrology
Description: Streams and rivers are an integral component of the freshwater carbon cycle as they provide the lateral transport of carbon from terrestrial environments to the ocean. Urbanization is one of the fastest growing land uses and it has major impacts o...

Title: Relationship between saprolite-hosted groundwater chemistry, baseflow, and weathering depth at Redlair Observatory, a critical zone research site on the North Carolina Piedmont
Author: Horgan, Julianna
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: Environmental sciences, Geology, Hydrology
Description: Crystalline bedrock weathering profiles in the southern Piedmont terrane have thicker soils and gentler slopes than mountainous terranes with their thin soils and steep slopes. The objective of this study was to understand watershed-scale baseflow...

Title: THE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HYDROLOGIC AND MACROINVERTEBRATE METRICS ALONG AN URBANIZATION GRADIENT IN PIEDMONT HEADWATER STREAMS
Author: Black, Rebecca
Date Created: 2019
Subjects--Topical: Environmental sciences, Ecology, Hydrology
Description: Urban streams are characterized by altered hydrographs, increased nutrient concentrations, altered geomorphology, and decreased biodiversity. This study asked how the hydrologic flow regime impacts stream macroinvertebrates in Piedmont headwater s...

Title: Isotope hydrology and sustainability of High Plains groundwater in northeastern New Mexico
Author: Blumenberg, Victoria
Date Created: 2018
Subjects--Topical: Water resources development--Management, Hydrology
Description: Observable increases in depth to water in wells throughout the High Plains Aquifer have led to growing concerns regarding the sustainability of groundwater in the High Plains region. Previous studies have pointed to overuse and the presence of pal...
