2 Topics covered Objectives, goals & overview What & why the water component of SNAMP Pre-treatment Observations Water Quality Water Quantity Modeling & Scenarios: : post-treatment predictions RHESSys Calibration Treatment Scenarios Following lunch SWEEP Water Research Proposed treatments Potential effect on snowpack/water yield Adaptive Management Framework USFS: Change management direction as needed USFS: Plan projects with existing management direction (ROD) Analyze & model expected environmental affects Propose adjustments to management? Adaptive Management USFS: Implement projects as treatments Analyze & recalibrate models Observe & measure Adaptive management must be a participatory process that engages scientists, stakeholders, and managers in a long-term relationship grounded in shared learning about the ecosystem and society.

4 Mountain Hydrology Fluxes Research Questions evapotranspiration precipitation Where & when is water stored? How is it routed through the forested catchments? snowmelt infiltration What effects do forest treatments have on water quality, quantity (yield), storage & routing through the catchments? runoff sublimation ground & surface water exchange What is the transferability of 1 km 2 watersheds to fireshed response? Hypothesis 1 Fuels treatments will reduce Leaf Area Index (forest cover) As LAI decreases, snow accumulation on the ground will increase, while evapotranspiration (ET) and snow retention in late spring will decrease. 4
5 fuel Treatments & Energy Balance Fuels treatments: LAI & gaps & solar radiation Lower LAI: interception Gap size & spacing: control snow accumulation & melt timing A change in snow accumulation will be seen in the magnitude of peak stream flow Changes in snow retention, will be observed in the recession limb of the hydrograph & the soil moisture curves Hypotheses 2 Changes in ET will affect both the timing & magnitude of lateseason baseflow. 5
6 Hypothesis 3 Changes in water quality will be a function of changes in discharge Increased turbidity will be a function of stream discharge as opposed to hillslope erosion Hypothesis 4 Using hydrologic models, physiographic & hydroclimatic thresholds can be defined linking area treated with aquatic effects & impacts on forest water cycle Hydrologic models & spatial data will enable extending responses to the larger watershed & fireshed scales 6
7 Topics covered Objectives, goals & overview What & why the water component of SNAMP Pre-treatment Observations Water Quality Water Quantity Modeling & Scenarios RHESSys Calibration Treatment Scenarios Pretreatment Observations Oct 2007 Sept years Meteorological 3 years Snow depth (distributed) 2 years Soil moisture (distributed) Stream Water Quality Stream Level & Discharge 7
8 Temp Cond DO Turbidity Precip & Discharge Water Quality: Speckerman Snow Depth water chemistry varies with discharge Speckerman Frazier 8
9 Controls on Conductivity Base flow High flow evaporation surface runoff precipitation on channel evaporation groundwater input groundwater input Common caused of increase: Groundwater input, contact w/ soil & evaporation Surface runoff and precipitation on channel have dilution effect Water chemistry changes with water Sources Stable water isotopes 2 H 18 O 9
10 Stable Isotopes Lighter (vapor) Heavier (liquid) Elevational trends for water chemistry Elevation 2 H Latitude 18 O 10
11 Distinct Sources for the different streams 18 O turbidity peaks will be a function of stream discharge Observations: often largest seasonal flush at initial rains turbidity precip discharge no data Accumulation phase Transport phase Current thinking: there may be seasonal depletion of sediment especially following multiple storm events 11
12 turbidity peaks will be a function of stream discharge Speckerman Frazier Current analysis: comparing discharge to turbidity to analyze sediment transport patterns Additional findings: Speckerman Snow melt Spring recession Baseflow Temp 14:00 15:00 15:30 Discharge 14:30 18:00 11:45 Snow 12
13 Summary Water Quality Definite differences in behavior between N & S sites We are working to understand source of waters for different streams Turbidity may not be only a function of discharge, recent event history may also play a role. Hysteresis patterns indicate in-channel areas are dominant sources of sediment Diel cycles suggest a piston-type flow model rather than surface runoff during snow melt.

21 Model Scenarios: Research Questions Scaling Where & when is water stored? How is it routed through the forested catchments? What effects do forest treatments have on water quality, quantity (yield), storage & routing through the catchments? What is the transferability of 1 km 2 watersheds to fireshed response? Summary Modeling Calibrations: CZO basins near completion SNAMP still needs improvement Scenarios: Preliminary results show increased water in wet & dry years Canopy gaps & detailed snow process next Scaling up to larger watersheds is the final step 21
