A Reconstruction of Plant Species Composition at the Devil's Kitchen Site (Southern Oregon Coast) using Plant Opal Phytoliths and Charcoal Macro-remains

Creator:: Bulder, Nicholas H.
Abstract:: Although plant remains, such as opal phytolith and charcoal analyses, have been used since the beginning of the 20th century to reconstruct past environments by ecologists and botanists, only recently have these techniques been considered by archaeologists in understanding the past at the site level. This study employs opal phytolith...

Assemblages and Adaptation: The Influence of Multispecies Social Networks on Small Farmers’ Perceptions of and Responses to Climate Change in Oregon

Creator:: Parks, Melissa
Abstract:: This study explores how multispecies social networks influence small farmers' perceptions of and responses to climate change across Oregon.
