  • Quaking aspen persistence in three Oregon landscapes

    Creator:
    Seager, S. Trent
    Abstract:
    Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) is an important tree species in the western United States and there has been much concern about its persistence. In this thesis, I report on aspen in a portion of its range that has not been previously evaluated: the eastern and western slopes of the Central...

  • Oregon Greater Sage-Grouse Spring Population Monitoring: 2016 Annual Report

    Creator:
    Foster, Lee
    Abstract:
    During the 2016 greater sage-grouse breeding season, 1,908 aerial and ground lek surveys were conducted at 768 individual lek sites comprising 501 lek complexes. Surveys were conducted at 66.0% of known lek sites in the state, which was the greatest proportion of leks ever surveyed in Oregon. Survey effort during...

  • Greater Sage-grouse conservation assessment and strategy for Oregon: A plan to maintain and enhance populations and habitat

    Creator:
    Hagen, Christian
    Abstract:
    Greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) were once found in most grassland and sagebrush (Artemisia spp.) habitats east of the Cascades in Oregon. European settlement and conversion of sagebrush steppe into agricultural production led to extirpation of the species in the Columbia Basin by the early part of the 1900s, but sagebrush...

    Creator:
    Foster, Lee
    Abstract:
    During the 2017 greater sage-grouse (Centrocercus urophasianus) breeding season, 1,580 aerial and ground lek surveys were conducted at 674 individual lek sites comprising 429 lek complexes. Surveys were conducted at 58.0% of known lek sites in the state. Survey effort during 2017 declined -17.1%, -12.2%, and 14.5% from 2016 levels,...

  • Life History Trade-offs: The Effects of Habitat Selection on Columbian Black-tailed Deer Survival in Oregon

    Creator:
    Clark, Jessica S.
    Abstract:
    The assessment of habitat quality for wild populations requires evaluation of vital rates associated with the use of that habitat. Factors associated with bottom-up (forage) or top-down (predation) regulation and the relative contribution of these processes on ungulate populations are difficult to quantify, especially for a cryptic, but widely distributed...

  • Fruit quality evaluation of strawberries (Fragaria ananassa) grown in California and Oregon

    Creator:
    Jetti, Rajesh R.
    Abstract:
    Five genotypes from California (Ventana, Caniarosa, San Miguel, 13G97, and Venice) and Oregon (Totem, Puget Reliance, Puget Summer, Hood and Independence) were evaluated for quality. The volatile compounds were analyzed using head space solid phase micro extraction-gas chromatography-flame ionization detection (GGFID) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Odor activity values of...

  • A preliminary assessment of hydrogeologic suitability for Aquifer Storage and Recovery (ASR) in Oregon

    Creator:
    Woody, Jen
    Abstract:
    An ASR metric and site rating index applied to over 120 municipal and agricultural locations across Oregon, combined with comparison to case study data from existing ASR sites, indicate that more than 50% of selected sites are hydrogeologically suitable for ASR. The ASR metric is a ratio of aquifer storage...

  • Post-dispersal seed fates in a Western Oregon native prairie

    Creator:
    Clark, Deborah L.
    Abstract:
    Knowledge of post-dispersal seed fates and other regeneration characteristics is crucial for predicting abundances and distributions of populations and, ultimately, community species composition and diversity. Seed fate studies, however, are rare primarily due to the difficulty of determining seed fates and causes of mortality. This thesis investigated post-dispersal seed fates...

    McFarland, Annette Catherine
    Abstract:
    The reading of world literature, literary works from cultures other than one’s own, offers an effective means of creating greater awareness and sensitivity towards others. Research on the subject makes it clear that world literature can help lay the groundwork for a sense of world citizenship in students. To what...
