Geomorphic Setting, Aquatic Habitat, and Water-Quality Conditions of the Molalla River, Oregon, 2009–10 

Figure 8. Height above water surface (HAWS) of the Molalla River centered on each geomorphic reach. (Using a technique to show elevation difference of the flood-plain topography relative to the river water surface [Jones, 2006], relict channels and pre-development morphologic structures of river reaches are readily identified.)
