Title Dissolved Oxygen, Stream Temperature, and Fish Habitat Response to Environmental Water Purchases
Creator Null, Sarah E. Mouzon, Nathaniel R. Elmore, Logan R.
Description Environmental water purchases are increasingly used for ecological protection. In Nevada's Walker Basin (western USA), environmental water purchases augment streamflow in the Walker River and increase lake elevation of terminal Walker Lake. However, water quality impairments like elevated stream temperatures and low dissolved oxygen concentrations also limit ecosystems and species, including federally-threatened Lahontan cutthroat trout. In this paper, we prioritize water volumes and...
