Where the Stream Meets the Road : Prioritizing Culvert Replacement for Fish Passage

Creator:: Reagan, Rachel E.
Abstract:: Streams across the world are highly fragmented due to the presence of in-stream barriers (e.g., dams and stream-road crossings), many of which restrict or block fish passage. Retrofitting or replacing these structures is a high priority for restoring habitat connectivity for native fishes and other aquatic organisms in the Pacific...

Habitat use and movement behavior of Pacific marten (Martes caurina) in response to forest management practices in Lassen National Forest, California

Creator:: Moriarty, Katie M.
Abstract:: Some of the most pressing conservation concerns involve declining populations of species with low fecundity and highly specialized foraging and reproductive requirements. Yet, we often lack a functional understanding of how individuals of those species interact with their environment, specifically how their movement is affected by human-induced changes. In order...

American marten distributions over a 28 year period : relationships with landscape change in Sagehen Creek Experimental Forest, California, USA

Creator:: Moriarty, Katie M.
Abstract:: The distribution of American martens (Martes americana) within Sagehen Creek Experimental Forest (SCEF), Tahoe National Forest, California has been periodically documented from 1980–1993. This area has been the location of nine marten surveys, each involving a systematic detection/nondetection survey on the same grid. These data are an unprecedented time series...

Relative abundance and habitat associations of small mammals in two forest types in southern Oregon

Creator:: Johnston, Aaron N.
Abstract:: I studied small-mammal communities and their response to grazing in mixed-conifer forests and oak woodlands in the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument in southern Oregon. My objectives were to (1) compare small-mammal communities among forest types and grazing intensities, (2) identify riparian affiliated species, and (3) describe microhabitat associations. Over two years,...

Ecology of Columbian black-tailed deer fawns in western Oregon

Creator:: Pamplin, Nathan P.
Abstract:: Little is known about Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) because of their elusive nature and the logistical difficulty of studying them in densely forested and mountainous terrain. The Oregon Department of Fish and Wildlife has identified fawn survival as an important gap in the current knowledge of demography and...

The effects of natural fire and recreational disturbance on montane forest ecosystem composition, structure and nitrogen dynamics, Crater Lake National Park, Oregon

Creator:: Wilson, John K. (John Kevin)
Abstract:: Disturbance, whether natural or of human origin, modifies to varying degrees many ecosystem attributes. Fire is a natural process in the montane forests of southern Oregon but for much of the 20th century fire was viewed as an apocalypse and thus fervently suppressed. Effective natural resource management requires an understanding...

Mercury bioaccumulation in remote subalpine lakes : assessing the influence of invasive trout on salamanders

Creator:: Pfleeger, Adam
Abstract:: Mercury (Hg) contamination is a global conservation threat to freshwater ecosystems, detected in even the protected lakes of Olympic National Park (Washington, USA). Although considered some of the most remote and pristine US ecosystems, these lakes are currently subject to multiple environmental stressors, including climate change and fish introductions; adding...

The Oregon Coastal Subprovince, a new biogeographic subprovince for primary freshwater fishes in Oregon

Creator:: Kettratad, Jes
Abstract:: The Pacific Northwest has a relatively low diversity of primary freshwater fishes with most of the endemism and diversity in the Columbia River and Klamath River. However, the Oregon Coastal Subprovince defined as the coastal rivers from Miami River in the north to Sixes River in the south, has a...

Effects of Habitat Characteristics, Weather and Presence of Barred Owls (Strix varia) on Occupancy Dynamics and Breeding Propensity of Northern Spotted Owls (S. occidentalis caurina) in Mount Rainier National Park

Creator:: Mangan, Anna O.
Abstract:: For over 100 years, National Parks have existed to preserve America’s natural and cultural heritage for current and future generations. As environmental pressures on wildlife and habitats have increased in recent decades, National Park lands have become important protected areas for many threatened and endangered species. Conservation and management of...

Potential effects of ungulate exclusion fencing on displaying Hawaiian Petrels (Pterodroma sandwichensis) at Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park

Creator:: Swift, Roberta
Abstract:: Recently the National Park Service has proposed raising fence heights to exclude mouflon sheep (Ovis musimon) from conservation areas at Hawai'i Volcanoes National Park. Concern over previous mortality of Hawaiian Petrels (Pterodronia sandwichensis) due to collision with fences prompted this study to quantify the potential effects of raising fence heights...
