Riparian areas that can be used as reference sites on which to base goals of vegetation restoration have not been documented in the Oregon Coast Range. I examined the composition and distribution of unmanaged riparian ov ...
Salmonberry community structure was examined in alder-dominated
riparian buffer strips in the Oregon Coast Range. Salmonberry growing on slopes
was found to respond differently, to both characteristics of the buffer st ...
Vegetation provides food for many insects, and many insects serve as food for bats. We investigated the linkages among these three trophic levels in riparian areas throughout the Oregon Coast Range by examining the infl ...
During 1988-1989, stream habitat variables were compared between beaver-dam sites and unoccupied-stream sites to identify variables that may have been important for beaver (Castor canadensis) in selecting dam sites in th ...
The objective of my study was to examine differences in riparian tree and shrub composition associated with adult aquatic emergence and implications for terrestrial spiders in these sites. Seasonal abundance and biomass ...
This study was conducted to describe variation of riparian vegetation in an Oregon
Coast Range system according to geomorphic characteristics and in relation to streamflow.
Specific objectives of this study were to: I) ...
Riparian zone vegetation can influence terrestrial and aquatic food webs through variations in the amounts, timing, and nutritional content of leaf and other litter inputs. Differences in vegetation composition and dens ...
Riparian areas in the Pacific Northwest provide important biotic and abiotic
features, such as down wood, moist microsites, and abundant invertebrate prey that
benefit aquatic and terrestrial amphibians. Reported high ...

In the Coast Range of western Oregon, some natural resource managers are
converting red alder-dominated riparian areas to conifers to increase the future
source of in-stream large wood for salmonid habitat. However, st ...
