| Title | Managing Stream Temperatures for Climate Warming Adaptation with Selective Withdrawal from Reservoirs |
| Creator | Null, Sarah |
| Description | Climate warming is altering the flow and temperature regimes in California's Sierra Nevada mountain range by reducing snowpack, causing earlier runoff and raising stream temperatures. Managing reservoir releases for downstream temperatures is a promising adaptation option. In this study, we developed a linear programming model to optimally release water from multiple thermal layers in a seasonally stratified reservoir to minimize deviations from desired downstream temperatures. An explicit... |
