Abstract
  • A multitude of biotic and physical factors, many of them unique to riparian environments, interacted to form an extremely complex ecosystem along Catherine Creek in the Wallowa Mountains. A total of 258 stands of vegetation representing 60 communities was identified. At least 20 species of mammals and 81 species of birds utilize the area from May through October. The factors believed to be responsible for much of the diversity of riparian communities include soil characteristics, streamflow dynamics, climate, plant community interactions, animal effects, and man's effects. Analysis of the nine most common community types in the study area indicated their composition and structure were significantly affected by these factors.
