Notes | Springtime in coastal Oregon brings many things, including high runoff of herbicides from coastal forests. In this article, the uthors describe a study of herbicide runoff at 3 different scales of sub-basin size. While several important variables were identified, steep slopes combined with clearcuts and herbicide use combined to bring the highest concentrations of pollutants in runoff. |
