Functional groups, traits, and the performance of species in restoration

Creator:: Roberts, Rachael E. (Rachael Elaine)
Abstract:: In ecological restoration, species that are sown to increase the native plant diversity range in establishment ability. Some species readily establish, while others rarely do. This study set out to investigate some of the potential processes influencing species establishment, as well as the traits that are associated with the success...

The Willamette Valley (Oregon) Prairie Plant Trait Dataset

Creator:: Clark, Deborah and Wilson, Mark V.
Abstract:: The Willamette Valley (Oregon) Prairie Plant Trait Dataset is a compilation of plant traits of species important in upland prairies, wetland prairies, vernal pools, and emergent wetlands, and in the restoration of prairies and wetlands of the Willamette Valley of Oregon. These species are also found widely throughout the Pacific...

Factors affecting establishment and germination of upland prairie species of conservation concern in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Jones, Katherine D.
Abstract:: Identifying mechanisms that determine who lives and dies is the first step in developing successful restoration techniques for rare species and endangered habitats. We studied interactions that affect establishment of native plant forbs of conservation concern at the seedling stage to support the theoretical basis for restoration activities in Pacific...

Comparing vegetation and soils of remnant and restored prairie wetlands in the northern Willamette Valley

Creator:: Taylor, Sara M.
Abstract:: Native prairies of the Willamette Valley are considered among the rarest of Oregon's ecosystems (Clark and Wilson, 2001). As a result of agriculture conversion, urban development and cessation of native burning, Willamette Valley prairies have become highly fragmented and invaded by non-native species, leaving little room for native plant diversity....

Danebo Wetland Prairie Project Environmental Education Curriculum

Creator:: Windham, George, Wagner, Jan, Ruzicka, Angela, Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950-, Wilson, Mark V., and Lederman, Norman
Abstract:: One goal of this environmental education curriculum is that students will gain an appreciation of Willamette Valley wetland prairies, a threatened ecosystem, and will gain an understanding of the importance of protecting these wetlands. A second goal is that students will see first-hand the processes involved in conducting scientific field...

Germination and establishment in Willamette Valley native prairie plants

Creator:: Russell, Michael C.
Abstract:: Native plants provide many ecosystem services while also having great beauty and are a valuable component of the landscape. As use of these plants in habitat restoration, agricultural insectary plantings, and home landscapes increases so does demand for information on the basic biology of a group of species that have...

Butterfly and flower community composition among prairie-oak ecosystem habitats in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Powers, Breanna F.
Abstract:: Prairie-oak ecosystems in the Willamette Valley, Oregon have experienced habitat loss and degradation; most of these ecosystems are fragmented into smaller patches. Prairie-oak butterfly species, in the Willamette Valley, have decreased dramatically due to loss or degradation of habitat. More research is needed on sustaining the populations of butterflies in...

A guide to riparian tree and shrub planting in the Willamette Valley : steps to success

Creator:: Withrow-Robinson, Bradford A., Bennett, Max, 1963-, Ahrens, Glenn R., and Oregon State University. Extension Service
Abstract:: A step-by-step guide to riparian tree and shrub planting in the Willamette Valley. Provides information on project planning, plant materials, site preparation, planting techniques, site maintenance, and monitoring and evaluation. Intended to help landowners, watershed council members, agency personnel, and others communicate about, plan, and implement woodland plantings near streams...

Final report: Predicting field establishment rates from standardized plant traits - Year two of: Restoring prairies: A synthesis of studies on vegetation and invasive species in support of effective management

Creator:: Wilson, Mark V., Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950-, and Roberts, Rachel E.
Abstract:: Willamette Valley wetland prairies are some of the most endangered ecosystems in the United States, and provide habitat for many federally listed species (Wilson et al. 1993, Noss et al. 1995, USFWS 2000, Schultz et al. 2003). A rigorous program of ecosystem restoration can protect and enhance wetland plants, animals,...

West Eugene Native Wetland Restoration Research Project: Seed Dormancy, Germination, and Establishment

Creator:: Wilson, Mark V., Ingersoll, Cheryl A., and Clark, Deborah Louise, 1950-
Abstract:: Seed size, abundance, viability, dormancy, and germination requirements strongly influence plant establishment and therefore are important considerations in restoration of native vegetation. These characteristics provide criteria for selection of suitable species, development of collection and pretreatment methods, and determination of seeding densities. The first set of objectives of this study...
