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...

Reconciling Working Landscapes on State and Federal Lands with Endangered Species Act Requirements: Emerging Governance Surrounding Beaver-Related Watershed Restoration in Oregon

Creator:: Pike-Urlacher, Zach R.
Abstract:: Reconciling working landscapes with Endangered Species Act (ESA) requirements is a vexing challenge playing out in watersheds across the western United States. Beaver-related watershed restoration (BRR) methodologies have the potential to reconcile competing demands for resource extraction and recovery of ESA-listed species by restoring ecosystem functionality more effectively and at...

Environmental contaminants in male river otters collected from Oregon and Washington, 1994-99, with reproductive organ hypoplasia observed in otter males

Creator:: Grove, Robert Allan
Abstract:: A large number of river otter (Lontra canadensis) males were collected from areas of high and low contaminant concentrations throughout western Oregon and Washington during the fall and winter of 1994-99. Few significant non-reproductive organ morphometric differences were found in the large series of male otters collected, except for adrenal...

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...

Impacts of Policy and Environmental Change: Understanding Factors of Vulnerability and Resilience in the Face of Change in Oregon Fishing Communities

Creator:: Strawn, Astrea
Abstract:: Commercial fisheries are coupled human-natural systems that cross state borders and integrate private, public, academic sectors and interests. These systems integrate complicated relationships between coastal socioeconomics, resource management and environmental realms. Previous findings from West Coast-based studies have identified aging trends in commercial fisheries participation, commonly referred to as the...

Artificial means of distinguishing smooth-line map unit boundaries : an examination of Oregon soil survey maps

Creator:: Sun, Yulin
Abstract:: Soil is a complex living system with high heterogeneity, which makes locating soil map boundaries a challenge. In traditional soil survey, the placement of soil map boundaries relies largely (at least initially) on identifying the soil-forming factors of biota and topographic relief through stereo aerial photo pairs. Future soil survey...
