Sediment storage in a headwater valley of the Oregon Coast Range : erosion rates and styles and valley-floor capacitance

Creator:: Casebeer, Nathan E.
Abstract:: This study is part of the effort to quantify sediment budgets and understand the geomorphic evolution of steep mountains where debris flows are the dominant agent of upland erosion. Observations indicate that headwater basins in the Oregon Coast Range (OCR) can store a large amount of sediment, mostly from debris...

The Shade Credit Incentive Landscapes of the McKenzie/Willamette Confluence

Creator:: Shaub, Nathan C.
Abstract:: Increasing population and land use decisions have had a negative effect on the aquatic ecosystems in the Willamette River Basin. One result is elevated temperatures in many of the Basin’s streams, which adversely affect the fish that live in these streams. There are several regulatory mechanisms in place to improve...

Testing spatial correlation of subduction interplate coupling and forearc morpho-tectonics

Creator:: Kaye, Grant David
Abstract:: The two largest earthquakes ever recorded, the 1964 M[subscript w] 9.2 Alaskan and 1960 M[subscript w] 9.5 Chilean, occurred on seismogenic plate interfaces at subduction zones. It has been theorized that the catastrophic failure of a locked zone along the contact between the downgoing slab and the upper plate causes...

Controls on movement of selected landslides in the Coast Range and western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Wong, Bernard Bong-Lap
Abstract:: The movement characteristics of five landslides are compared and interpreted based on records of approximately 10-years duration. Condon landslide in the Oregon Coast Range has consistently exhibited brief (1 - 8 days) movement episodes in wet winter months, separated by long periods of no movement. The translatory movement is probably...

Cycles of life and landscape : interpreting the geological foundation of Shenandoah National Park

Creator:: Kelly, Wendy Sonya
Abstract:: The significance of geology is commonly overlooked by the general public and underrepresented in free-choice learning environments including national parks that exhibit spectacular examples of geological features and processes. Parks are a major contributor to public learning, and a key way to teach how geology influences many aspects of our...

Petrology and geochemistry of the Emigrant Pass volcanics, Nevada : implications for a magmatic-hydrothermal origin of the Carlin gold deposits

Creator:: Johnson, Curtis L.
Abstract:: The Emigrant Pass volcanics (EPV) are a 38.3 to 36.4 Ma calc-alkaline volcanic center that erupted andesite and dacite, and a late series of felsic dikes along the south flank of the Carlin gold district in north-central Nevada. The EPV includes dacite and rhyolite porphyry dikes indistinguishable from porphyry dikes...

A global scale analysis of the spatiotemporal distribution of foliar biomass for 1988

Creator:: Pross, Derek D.
Abstract:: Many ecological systems follow a seasonal cycle affecting primary production,carbon flux, and vegetative gas emissions. The seasonal variation of ecological systems are both affected by and have effects upon climatic factors. A quantitative estimate of the seasonal variation of vegetation is required to characterize ecological systems and their interaction with...

Assessing the potential impacts of alternative landscape designs on amphibian population dynamics

Creator:: Rustigian, Heather L.
Abstract:: present a unique modeling approach to investigate the potential impacts of future land use alternatives on amphibian population dynamics in two agricultural watersheds in central Iowa. An individual-based spatially explicit population was used to predict the consequences of alternative landscape design and management for populations of four amphibian species. The...

Production of an animated cartography sample for teaching and instruction, with musings on the nature and usefulness of animated maps

Creator:: Whaley, Kristine A.
Abstract:: Animated cartography is still a new field. It has been experimented with for years, but it has not gained general usage except partially in use by the news media. Nevertheless, certain subjects cry out for displaying the patterns of movement over time, such as historical patterns of migration and settlement,...

A gender sensitive analysis of a community-based wildlife utilization initiative in Zimbabwe's Zambezi Valley

Creator:: Nabane, Nontokozo
Abstract:: Zimbabwe's Communal Areas Management Program For Indigenous Resources (CAMPFIRE), is a grassroots natural resource management initiative that promotes utilization of natural resources as an economic and sustainable land use option in Zimbabwe's rural areas. Currently the program focuses on wildlife utilization as a development intervention to improve the economic livelihood...
