Improving Design Guidance for In-Stream Structures Used in Stream Restoration
Vane-type in-stream structures and step pool storm conveyance (SPSC) are more ecologically friendly alternatives to traditional stream channel stabilization and stormwater conveyance techniques. Vane-type structures have been widely accepted as elements of stream restoration projects and are …

Comparison of Two Potential Streamgage Locations on Scott Creek at Swanton Pacific Ranch, California
… been proposed, including the installation of a cross-vane and wing-deflectors, to mitigate negative effects of erosion and reestablish a natural channel condition. The upstream location has been selected as the preferred alternative given the remediation measures are successful.</p>

The eco-epidemiology of Chagas disease risk in Panama
… transmission, and how these factors vary across a human land-use gradient. First, I tested a new collection method that is simpler and more cost-effective than current methods to attract and capture sylvatic triatomines, an important step in monitoring triatomine populations and vector …

Evaluating Shallow-Flow Rock Structures as Scour Countermeasures at Bridges
<p>The Utah Department of Transportation commissioned a study to determine whether or not shallow-flow rock structures could reliably be used at bridge abutments in place of riprap. Research was conducted in a two-phase effort beginning with numerical modeling and ending with field verification of …
