New Foraminifera-Based Proxies to Trace Changes to the Organic and Inorganic Carbon System Since the Last Glacial Maximum

Creator:: Fritz-Endres, Theresa
Abstract:: The production of carbon and export to deep ocean sediments is linked to carbon partitioning between the ocean and atmosphere and is a key driver of climate change over the glacial-interglacial transition. Yet conflicting reconstructions create barriers to understanding changes to the carbon system over this important climate transition. Production...

Planning for Change: Assessing the Potential Role of Marine Protected Areas and Fisheries Management Approaches for Resilience Management in a Changing Ocean

Creator:: Kroeker, Kristy J., Carr, Mark H., Raimondi, Peter T., Caselle, Jennifer E., Washburn, Libe, Palumbi, Stephen R., Barth, John A., Chan, Francis, Menge, Bruce A., Milligan, Kristen, Novak, Mark, and White, J. Wilson
Abstract:: Despite progressive policies and continued advances in ocean management, numerous shifts associated with global changes have been observed in marine ecosystems in recent years, including warming, ocean acidification, and deoxygenation. As global change accelerates, science is needed to inform evidence-based management strategies for continued ecosystem services. Resilience management, in which...

Analyzing the present and future Pacific-North American teleconnection using global and regional climate models

Creator:: Allan, Andrea M.
Abstract:: In this thesis I present the results of a comprehensive assessment of the Pacific-North American (PNA) teleconnection pattern in general circulation models (GCMs) and a regional climate model (RCM). The PNA teleconnection pattern is a quasi-stationary wave field over the North Pacific and North America that has long been recognized...

Debris flows in glaciated catchments : a case study on Mount Rainier, Washington

Creator:: Legg, Nicholas T.
Abstract:: Debris flows, which occur in mountain settings worldwide, have been particularly damaging in the glaciated basins flanking the stratovolcanoes in the Cascade Range of the northwestern United States. This thesis contains two manuscripts that respectively investigate the (1) initiation processes of debris flows in these glaciated catchments, and (2) debris...

Protection, Restoration, and Management of Terrestrial Habitats and Species of the Willamette Sub-Basin

Creator:: Adamus, Paul R.
Abstract:: This report and especially the accompanying Detail Files and MapFiles provide relatively detailed information on status, trends, distribution, limiting factors, and conservation needs of all of the Willamette’s wildlife species, listed plants, and vulnerable habitats. Data on habitat suitability for each species is provided by watershed (170 HUC6s), elevation (6...

Oregon climate assessment report : December 2010

Creator:: Dello, Kathie D., Mote, Philip W., and Oregon Climate Change Research Institute
Abstract:: The group of scientists that make up the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change found in 2007 that the warming of Earth’s climate is unequivocal and largely due to human activity. Earth’s climate has changed in the past, though the recent magnitude and pace of changes are unprecedented in human existence....

Effects of forest roads and tree removal in or near wetlands of the Pacific Northwest : a literature synthesis

Creator:: Adamus, Paul R.
Abstract:: Because studies of forestry effects on wetlands have been so infrequent in the Pacific Northwest, each section in this report drew heavily from studies of forestry impacts to streams and riparian zones. After assembly and synthesis, that information was extrapolated, mostly in the form of hypotheses, to the very different...

Effects of volcanic and hydrologic processes on forest vegetation: Chaitén Volcano, Chile

Creator:: Swanson, Frederick J., Jones, Julia A., Crisafulli, Charles M., and Lara, Antonio
Abstract:: The 2008-2009 eruption of Chaitén Volcano (Chile) involved a variety of volcanic and associated hydrologic processes that damaged nearby forests. These processes included coarse (gravel) and fine (silt to sand) tephra fall, a laterally directed blast, fluvial deposition of remobilized tephra, a variety of low-temperature mass-movement processes, and a pyroclastic...

Management Applications of Remotely Sensed Dynamic Seascapes: Two Case Studies

Creator:: Klajbor, Willem C.
Abstract:: Dynamic seascapes, which are classified using a combination of remotely sensed data and model output, represent a potential tool for dynamic ecosystem-based management in marine systems. This work explores the utility of seascape classification in the context of marine resource management by examining two case studies: one involving biological relationships...

Abrupt deglacial climate changes in the North Pacific and implications for climate tipping points

Creator:: Praetorius, Summer Kate
Abstract:: Paleoclimate archives have revealed abrupt climate events that are superimposed on more gradual climate changes throughout the last glacial and deglacial periods. The underlying causes of such rapid climate changes are still poorly understood, but the strong expression of these events in northern hemisphere records likely points to climatic mechanisms...
