	Palouse - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Palouse is a region covering approximately 16,000 square kilometres of land in northwestern Idaho and southeastern Washington.
		The Palouse region encompasses the rolling, fertile hills of the Palouse prairie, as well as the more southerly Camas Prairie and the forested hills and canyonlands of the area's rivers.
		The Palouse Prairie lies at the eastern edge of the Palouse region, north of the Clearwater River.

	Palouse Falls
		Palouse Falls, with a height of 198 feet, is the only one that remains today and is most spectacular in the spring and early summer.
		The park is 83 acres with 8,750 feet of freshwater shore-line on the Palouse River.

	Washington - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Washington is bounded by the Pacific Ocean to the west; Oregon to the south (the Columbia River forming most of this border); Idaho to the east and British Columbia, Canada to the north.
		During the Great Depression, a series of hydroelectric dams were constructed along the Columbia river as part of a project to increase the production of electricity.
		According to the U.S. Census as of 2005, Washington has an estimated population of 6,287,759, which is an increase of 80,713, or 1.3%, from the prior year and an increase of 393,619, or 6.7%, since the year 2000.

	The Palouse Prairie
		To the north and west, the Palouse is bounded by areas of flat terrain and shallow soils, places where the deep soils were scoured away by ice or water during past glaciations or floods.
		A core area of agreement extends north of the Snake River to Cheney, Washington, west almost to the confluence of the Palouse and Snake Rivers, and east along a portion of the Clearwater River.
		The Palouse has been dramatically altered within the last 150 years by agriculture, and virtually all remaining examples have been invaded to some extent by aggressive alien species, weeds that were either deliberately or accidentally introduced from the Old World.

	Soil Erosion in the Palouse River Basin:Indications of Improvement
		Since the Palouse River Basin was first farmed in the late 1800s, soil erosion resulting from runoff water has been an ongoing problem.
		For example, comparing historical with recent year-to-year variations in annual average concentrations* of suspended sediment in the Palouse River reveals that the average concentration for the years 1993-96 is one-half the average for the years 1962-71 (fig.
		At the Palouse River at Hooper, highest average concentrations of suspended sediment were observed during 1962-71 storms.

	Field Trip to Mars Page 13 - Ritzville to Palouse Falls
		The Palouse River was apparently diverted across this divide area from its pre-flood route along Washtucna Coulee.
		In the distance at the top of the channel are loess hills that have been streamlined as they were eroded by the floodwaters.
		In this way a river flowing over a falls can "move" the edge of the falls upstream and deposit broken rock downstream.

		Palouse Falls is located about 65 miles away from Walla Walla, so the intern must be willing to spend a significant amount of time driving.
		I was unable to get to the upper side of the farm because it was another few miles along the railroad tracks, and the minimal use of the land for the farm suggested it was not adding substantial nitrates, phosphates, or nitrites into the water.
		At that time, I assumed the river clean, but only the pool was dirty because of the clear river and the green algae at the base of the falls.

	Evidence of the Flood in Franklin County
		The Palouse River flows out of Idaho, passes through the towns of Palouse and Colfax, and meanders through the Palouse Hills.
		Geologists say that the Palouse Hills to the east of Franklin County are rolling hills made of "loess." Loess is wind-blown silt.
		The Juniper Dunes northeast of Pasco are sand dunes, caused by the gradual movement of wind-blown sand.

		Though steamboats operated up to the junction of the Snake and Clearwater Rivers, the rivers were low during the critical summer months, and the roads to the river ports were deep with dust in the summer and mud during the long spring and fall.
		Soil loss by water erosion in the Palouse River basin from 1939 to 1972 was most severe in the heavily farmed areas of Whitman County, Washington, where soil losses of 15-18 tons per acre per year were mapped (U.S. Department of Agriculture 1978; Fig.
