Book excerpt: Excerpt from Water Supply Outlook for Western United States, Including Columbia River Drainage in Canada: April 1976 The California Department of Water Re sources reports that supply conditions have deteriorated even further during March-the fourth month this season with below average precipitation. The below normal forecasts of snowmelt for the Central Valley have now been reduced to 30 percent of average for San Joaquin Valley streams and 45 percent for Sacramento Valley streams. Streams draining the east slope of the Sierra Nevada will fare no better. These rivers are also forecast to yield only one third to one-half their normal amounts. However, where users have supplemental supplies from reservoirs, the shortage will not be too severe. Most other regions of the Great Basin should receive adequate to above average supplies. The Columbia Basin continued to receive average to above normal snowfall at high elevations, and the region-wide accumulation is now about 13 percent above the April 1 average. The Columbia is forecast to yield llo percent of its 15-year normal during the april-september period. Nearly all tribu taries will discharge at normal or greater rates. The only exception is in the Big lost-little Wood area of Central Idaho where runoff will fall lo-ls percent below normal. Reservoir storage will alleviate any late season shortages in the area.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Technical Paper addresses the issue of freshwater. Sealevel rise is dealt with only insofar as it can lead to impacts on freshwater in coastal areas and beyond. Climate, freshwater, biophysical and socio-economic systems are interconnected in complex ways. Hence, a change in any one of these can induce a change in any other. Freshwater-related issues are critical in determining key regional and sectoral vulnerabilities. Therefore, the relationship between climate change and freshwater resources is of primary concern to human society and also has implications for all living species. -- page vii.
Download or read book Urban Stormwater Management in the United States written by National Research Council and published by National Academies Press. This book was released on 2009-03-17 with total page 611 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The rapid conversion of land to urban and suburban areas has profoundly altered how water flows during and following storm events, putting higher volumes of water and more pollutants into the nation's rivers, lakes, and estuaries. These changes have degraded water quality and habitat in virtually every urban stream system. The Clean Water Act regulatory framework for addressing sewage and industrial wastes is not well suited to the more difficult problem of stormwater discharges. This book calls for an entirely new permitting structure that would put authority and accountability for stormwater discharges at the municipal level. A number of additional actions, such as conserving natural areas, reducing hard surface cover (e.g., roads and parking lots), and retrofitting urban areas with features that hold and treat stormwater, are recommended.
