Book excerpt: Excerpt from Projecting Population Change in the Interior Columbia River Basin Management of ecosystems on Federal lands takes place within a social context that, like biophysical settings, is constantly changing. Impacts of potential alternative ecosystem management strategies will differ depending on the size, location, and expectations of the human population. Likewise, these characteristics are associated with the location, type, and intensity of impacts on biophysical components. Manage ment of ecosystems requires us to project the human population for a biologically significant timeframe, although doing so is fraught with uncertainty. By attempting to identify likely high and low population-change scenarios, we can avoid some of this uncertainty; and by indicating that we are primarily interested in orders of magnitude of change rather than precise figures, we focus discussion on possible futures rather than the accuracy of the projections.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Climate-Change Scenario for the Columbia River Basin: Interior Columbia Basin Ecosystem Management Project: Scientific Assessment This work describes the method used to generate a climate-change scenario for the Columbia River Basin Ecosystem Management Project, which began in 1993. The project required an estimate of potential climate change to complement various scenarios of management alternatives. The scenario considers climate patterns that may change if the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (co2), or its greenhouse gas equivalent, were to double over pre-industrial Revolution values. Given the current rate of increase in atmospheric C02 concentration, doubling could occur within the next 50 to 100 years. The Columbia River basin is in a transition climate zone between predominating maritime to the west, arctic to the north, and continental to the east. Consequently, it is difficult to characterize through means and averages. Therefore, many of the current stochastic methods for developing climate-change scenarios cannot directly apply to the basin. To circumvent this problem, a composite approach was taken to generate a climate scenario that considers knowledge of current regional climate controls, available output from general circulation and regional climate models, and observed changes in climate. The resulting climate-change scenario suggests that precipitation could increase substantially during winter to +50 percent) and moderately during spring and autumn to +35 percent). A slight decrease (o to -5 percent) in summer precipitation is possible, except for the southeastern portions of the basin that may experience an increase in convective precipitation percent). Low-elevation kilometer) temperatures throughout the year may increase 1 to 3 °c, with greatest increases during winter. This amount of temperature change is possible because of an expected loss of low-elevation snow cover. Warm temperatures and lack of low-elevation snow could reduce the magnitude of rain-on-snow floods. Wildfire potential could increase, however, as spring runoff from snowmelt is reduced. At high elevations, increased cloud cover could cause average temperatures to decrease during winter but be synchronized with possible warming at low elevations during summer. The diurnal range of temperature could decrease, especially in summer and autumn. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: This environmental impact statement describes the potential beneficial and adverse impacts of the proposed continued development of the Columbia Basin Project. Two alternatives for continued development have been analyzed and are discussed in this document: (1) complete the Columbia Basin Project as originally envisioned, by providing irrigation service to an additional 538,600 acres; and (2) expand the Columbia Basin Project on a more limited scale by providing irrigation service to approximately 87,000 acres along the east bank of the East Low Canal. A No Action alternative has also been included as part of this environmental analysis.
