Relationships between landscape stability, clay mineralogy, and stream turbidity in the South Santiam watershed, Western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:

Pearch, John M.

Masters Thesis
Evaluation of Deforestation in the Rio Platano Biosphere Reserve, Honduras

Creator:

Wade, Michael C.

Abstract:

Satellite imagery has been a useful tool in monitoring land cover changes, including changes within protected areas. In the 1980’s and 1990’s Honduras created over 100 protected areas, yet few resources have been dedicated to their management. This study used Landsat satellite imagery to evaluate deforestation in the Río Plátano...

Capstone Project
Lava Flow Lobation and Margin Analysis

Creator:

Peckyno, Robert S.

Abstract:

Comparative investigations based on volcanic morphology suffer from the lack of a large terrestrial baseline for comparison. To fill this gap, the Lava Flow Morphology Database (LAMDA) was proposed as a GIS based central clearinghouse for remote and field investigations of volcanic morphology. This study presents an analysis of LAMDA’S...

Capstone Project
Multi-Centennial Response of ENSO Under Varying Atmospheric CO2

Creator:

Alder, Jay R.

Abstract:

The El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) affects millions of people via global teleconnections in the form of drought and torrential rainfall that impact agriculture and food production in many countries. Yet how ENSO will respond to a warming world is uncertain and a greatly debated topic. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate...

Capstone Project
Understanding the impact of climate change on snowpack extent and measurement in the Columbia River Basin and nested sub basins

Creator:

Brown, Aimee Lyn

Abstract:

Shifting climate patterns in the Columbia River basin are affecting snow pack, and, as a result, stream flow throughout the region. In the Oregon Cascades, ever growing populations, and their associated activities, place increasing stress on an already over allocated hydrologic system. Political pressures, including the possibility of renegotiation or...

Masters Thesis
Sediment production and delivery in Pistol River, Oregon and its effects on pool morphology

Creator:

Russell, Periann

Abstract:

Sediment production and delivery in Pacific Northwest coastal streams can have damaging effects on channel morphology and anadromous fish habitat. The research in Pistol River was designed to determine if a link exists between sediment delivery processes and degradation of fish habitat. Objectives of this basin-wide analysis were to: 1)...

Masters Thesis
The LizLand model : geomorphic landform and surface composition analysis of lizard habitat in the California Mojave Desert

Creator:

Heaton, Jill S.

Abstract:

This dissertation had three main objectives: 1) investigate the role of macro and micro geomorphology in determining lizard distributions in the Southern California Mojave Desert; 2) develop a spatially explicit lizard habitat model based upon geomorphology; and, 3) determine the interactive effects of geomorphology, roads, and land use in defining...

Dissertation
The effects of land use changes on forest fires in major islands of Indonesia

Creator:

Lumban-Tobing, Pago L.

Abstract:

The study examines the effect of forest clearance on fire occurrences in major islands of Indonesia, namely: Borneo, Sumatra, Sulawesi and Irian Jaya. The working hypothesis of the study is that forest clearing is a necessary predecessor for extensive fires to occur. The study is designed to test the idea...

Dissertation
A method for remotely monitoring glaciers with regional application to the Pacific Northwest

Creator:

Medley, Brooke

Abstract:

An integrative method for monitoring glacier geometry change and mass balance is presented and applied to the Pacific Northwest, USA. Acting as a baseline for interpretation of future changes in glacier size and shape, we first derive a new inventory of regional glacier cover using remotely sensed data. To investigate...

Masters Thesis
Developing a plan for the national coordination of geospatial technology education : a community college perspective

Creator:

Sullivan, Deidre E.

Abstract:

Geospatial technology is a rapidly growing and changing field. The term geospatial technology (GST) refers to geographical information systems (GIS), global positioning systems (GPS), and remote sensing (RS), all emerging technologies that assist the user in the collection, analysis, and interpretation of spatial data. The speed at which new fields...
