Creator:: Royer, Timothy Adam
Abstract:: The impact of forest roads on the hydrology of forested watersheds has long been studied. While forest roads have been reported to alter storm runoff at the road segment scale, the potential for changes to be detectable at the small watershed scale has been debated. The purpose of this study...

Creator:: Toman, Elizabeth Myers
Abstract:: The management of existing forest road systems is an issue of growing importance and public debate. Roads can alter the hydrologic processes in a watershed especially at stream crossing culverts where road ditches channel runoff directly into the stream. The objective of this study was to determine how surface runoff...

Creator:: Poor, Cara J.
Abstract:: This work furthers the understanding of processes occurring in catchments that affect stream nitrate concentrations using two different approaches: a temporally intensive case study of three headwater catchments with varying land use (through storm event monitoring) and a spatially intensive study on the regional scale (through statistical modeling) of 1st-4th...

Creator:: Meadows, Matthew W.
Abstract:: Suspended sediment and in situ turbidity data from two western Oregon streams, Oak Creek and South Fork Hinkle Creek, were used to estimate annual sediment loads for the 2006 water year (October 1, 2005 to September 30, 2006). Water samples and in situ turbidity observations were taken following the Turbidity...

Creator:: Edwards, Kearstin K.
Abstract:: Increasing land fragmentation, environmental regulations and neighbors' concerns pose significant challenges to forest owners at the urban fringe, whose properties are physically caught between rural landscapes and continually expanding urban centers. Using Oregon's Soap Creek Watershed as a study site, we paired qualitative and quantitative methods to identify stakeholders, their...
