Title: Multi-scale landscape factors influencing stream water quality in the state of Oregon: Journal: Environmental Monitoring and Assessment; Authors: M. S. Nash, D. T. Heggem, D. Ebert, T. G. Wade, and R. K. Hall; Date: 2009; Summary: Surface water quality data were collected from 1990-1994 across the state of Oregon, including eastern arid lands with high desert prairie. Data were analyzed according to landscape metrics and a grazing potential index (GPI) based on proximity to water, land ownership and forage availability, to determine distribution and relationship of biotic (enterococci bacteria) and abiotic (nitrogen-N and phosphorus-P) for indication of animal presence and influence on water quality. Metrics included percentage forest, riparian, agriculture, manmade or natural barren, natural gras ...; Agrovoc Control Words: Grazing, Water Quality, Watershed; View more details about this article
