Drought preparedness in Mt. Rainier National Park
Small streams are an important source of water in Mount Rainier National Park. Some streams run year-round, while others go dry during the late summer. The USGS used crowd-sourced data to develop a localized model of Mount Rainier streams. The model provides predictions of whether streams are likely to flow year-round, helping park managers plan for a sustainable water supply.
Predicting probabilities of late summer surface flow presence in a glaciated mountainous headwater region Predicting probabilities of late summer surface flow presence in a glaciated mountainous headwater region
Accurate mapping of streams that maintain surface flow during annual baseflow periods in mountain headwater streams is important for informing water availability for human consumption and is a fundamental determinant of in-channel conditions for stream-dwelling organisms. Yet accurate mapping that captures local spatial variability and associated local controls on surface flow presence...
