Abstract

This study examines stream temperatures and associated air temperatures at multiple sites in stream networks within the Andrews Experimental Forest. Stream temperature sensors were placed at matched elevations in the main headwater streams of Lookout Creek, Mack Creek and McRae Creek as well as above and below major confluences in downstream reaches. Air temperatures were recorded 1.5 m above the stream at selected sites. Data were collected every half hour during late spring and summers. Some sites have data during fall and winter. Sensors were also placed in bottom of shallow piezometric wells in WS 3.

Abstract
  • The H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest is a living laboratory that provides unparalleled opportunities for the study of forest and stream ecosystems in the central Cascade Range of Oregon. Since 1980, as a part of the National Science Foundation Long Term Ecological Research (NSF-LTER) program, the Andrews Experimental Forest has become a leader in the analysis of forest and stream ecosystem dynamics.
  • Long-term field experiments and measurement programs have focused on climate dynamics, streamflow, water quality, and vegetation succession. Currently researchers are working to develop concepts and tools needed to predict effects of natural disturbance, land use, and climate change on ecosystem structure, function, and species composition.
  • The Andrews Experimental Forest is administered cooperatively by the USDA Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station, Oregon State University and the Willamette National Forest. Funding for the research program comes from the National Science Foundation (NSF), US Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station, Oregon State University, and other sources.
Funding

Study Area Description
  • Long-Term Ecological Research
    The Andrews Forest is situated in the western Cascade Range of Oregon, and covers the entire 15,800-acre (6400-ha) drainage basin of Lookout Creek. Elevation ranges from 1350 to 5340 feet (410 to 1630 m). Broadly representative of the rugged mountainous landscape of the Pacific Northwest, the Andrews Forest contains excellent examples of the region's conifer forests and associated wildlife and stream ecosystems. These forests are among the tallest and most productive in the world, with tree heights of often greater than 250 ft (75 m). Streams are steep, cold and clean, providing habitat for numerous aquatic organisms.

Purpose: To evaluate spatial and temporal variability of stream temperatures throughout the Andrews Experimental Forest

Methods

Method Steps

Field Methods - HT002
  • Sensors were tied inside 2.5 inch PVC tubes (7 inches long) to allow water flow around sensors but to block direct incoming radiation. Sensor and case were tied to tree on bank and rocks were used to keep case submerged in stream. Sensors were placed near thalweg to measure temperature of main flow. Air temperature sensors were suspended 1.5 m above stream surface, usually by hanging the sensor in a half PVC protective case on a branch.

Instrumentation:

  • Onset Stowaway submersible sensors (+/-0.2oC)
Quality Assurance - HT002
  • Sensors were cross calibrated before being deployed, using hot and cold water baths. Sensors that measured temperatures 0.3 C above or below others were not deployed. After downloading, thermographs were examined and temperatures during exposure to air or before and after deployment were deleted from record.

Sampling

Study Extent
  • Sensors placed throughout stream network at Andrews Experimental Forest
  • Sampling frequency: every half hour, primarily during summers
Sampling Description
  • Sensors were placed in streams at similar elevations across the stream network and at stream junctions to examine longitudinal dynamics of stream temperature.
