Daniel R Wise
Dan is a hydrologist with the U.S. Geological Survey at the Oregon Water Science Center in Portland, Oregon.
Dan has been with the USGS Oregon Water Science Center since 2001. His work is focused primarily on the interpretation of regional water quality data, such as relating surface-water nutrient and sediment conditions to landscape characteristics. He also works on the Integrated Water Availability Assessment for the Upper Colorado River Basin.
