A selected bibliography of water-related research in the upper Klamath Basin, Oregon

Abstract

A bibliography containing 165 selected references was compiled to assist local, State and Federal agencies that have ongoing water-related research interests in the Upper Klamath Basin. The report has two parts. Part I is a list of bibliographic citations alphabetized by author, and Part II is a subject index that references bibliographic entries. Categories of the subject index include chemistry, ecology, geology, hydrology, land use, and non-interpretive reports. Maps, reports, proposals, theses, dissertations, and journal articles are referenced. Some of the environmental issues addressed by references in the bibliography are hypereutrophication, nuisance algal blooms, endangered fish species, water allocation questions, wetland and riparian habitat restoration, and pesticide and fertilizer utilization.

The History of Recent Limnological Changes and Human Impact on Upper Klamath Lake, Oregon

“…Nevertheless, opinions about the natural character of Upper Klamath Lake and causes of its present hypereutrophic state range widely (Grayson 1976;Bortleson and Fretwell 1993;Snyder and Morace 1997). In 1995, a selected bibliography of waterrelated research on Upper Klamath Lake contained 165 papers (Brownell and Rinallo 1995), nearly 80 percent 'gray' literature. Because of potential conflict in water use, water quality management for the lake is a subject of considerable discussion (Boyd et al 2002).…”

Nitrogen and phosphorus loading from drained wetlands adjacent to Upper Klamath and Agency lakes, Oregon

“…Three reports have already been published as part of this study. Brownell and Rinallo (1995) prepared an extensive bibliography of water-related research in the Upper Klamath Basin. Laenen and LeTourneau (1996) estimated the wind-induced resuspension of bed sediment during periods of low lake elevation.…”
