  • Linking greater sage-grouse habitat use and suitability across spatiotemporal scales in central Oregon

    Creator:
    Freese, Mark T.
    Abstract:
    Greater Sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) habitat research has historically focused on fine-scale (0.007 - 0.032 ha) vegetation structure and composition immediately surrounding sites selected by birds. However, little work has evaluated vegetation attributes important for Greater Sage-grouse at a landscape-scale or identified landscape attributes that influence habitat use patterns. Habitat use...

  • Landscape occupancy by free ranging cattle in northeast Oregon

    Creator:
    Wilson, Kerry D.
    Abstract:
    Global Positioning System (GPS) and Geographic Information System (GIS) technologies were employed to evaluate cattle occupancy of three landscape attributes on three different grazing allotments administered by the Wallowa Whitman National Forest in Northeast Oregon. Topographic characteristics of slope; 0-4%, 4-12%, 12-35% and >35% were evaluated as well as north...

  • Distribution and behavior of cattle grazing riparian pastures

    Creator:
    Wilson, Marie A. (Marie Annette)
    Abstract:
    One second GPS collars were deployed on cattle in three different pastures at three separate times during the year. In each riparian pasture the vegetative communities and stream bank edge were digitally mapped using low elevation aerial photographs and checked in the field for accuracy. A 5 m buffer zone...
