Influence of limited access roads on Roosevelt elk in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Cole, Eric K.
Abstract:: No studies have evaluated the effects of limited vehicle access on movements, survival and habitat use of Roosevelt elk (Cervus elaphus roosevelti) . We installed twenty gates, restricting motorized vehicle access by the public in seven discrete Road Management Areas (RMAs), comprising 35% of the study area. We radio-tracked 31...

Roosevelt elk habitat use in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Pope, Michael D. (Michael Dickens)
Abstract:: Few studies have evaluated non-migratory Roosevelt elk (Cervus elaphus roosevelti) interactions and habitat use on lands undergoing extensive timber removal. We captured and radio-tracked for 14 months representatives from 29 different bands of elk across a 37,000 ha area of Oregon's Coast Range. We identified 6 habitat variables within individual...

Post-hatching survival and productivity of American avocets at drainwater evaporation ponds in the Tulare Basin, California

Creator:: Marn, Carolyn M. (Carolyn Mary), 1962-
Abstract:: Evaporation ponds that dispose of agricultural drainwater provide attractive habitat for waterbirds but may result in contaminant exposure that impairs reproduction. I estimated post-hatching survival and evaluated productivity estimates for American avocets (Recurvirostra americana) nesting at evaporation ponds in the Tulare Basin, California from 1991 to 1993. Avocets and Black-necked...

Juvenile survival and birth-site selection of Rocky Mountain elk in northeastern Oregon

Creator:: Rearden, Spencer N.
Abstract:: With declining populations and low calf recruitment in northeastern Oregon, much interest has been generated to study the survival rates and causes of mortality of Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni). I investigated the causes of elk calf mortality and the effects of predation risk on birth-site selection by cow...

Demography, home range, and habitat selection of northern spotted owls in the Ashland Watershed

Creator:: Schilling, Jason W.
Abstract:: Northern Spotted Owls (Strix occidentalis caurina) inhabit productive forests that historically supported frequent, large, variable-severity fires in the Klamath province of southwestern Oregon occur in complex. The potential for high-severity wildfire remains high throughout this region, so remaining spotted owl habitat is at risk. An adaptive management approach to fire...

Potential barriers to movements and habitat selection of pygmy rabbits (Brachylagus idahoensis) after experimental translocation

Creator:: Lawes, Timothy J. (Timothy James)
Abstract:: I assessed potential barriers to dispersal using homing tendency and investigated the movements and settlement site selection of pygmy rabbits (Brachylagus idahoensis) after short distance translocations in southeastern Oregon from June – December 2008. I captured, radio marked, and translocated 59 pygmy rabbits 1-2 km across landscapes with (1) continuous...

Demography and habitat selection of northern spotted owls in post-fire landscapes of southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Clark, Darren A.
Abstract:: Several large wildfires in southwestern Oregon during the summers of 2001 and 2002 provided the opportunity to investigate the impacts of wildfire on northern spotted owls (Strix occidentalis caurina). I used radio-telemetry and demographic surveys to describe demographic performance and habitat selection of spotted owls in the areas burned by...

Relative abundance and habitat associations of small mammals in two forest types in southern Oregon

Creator:: Johnston, Aaron N.
Abstract:: I studied small-mammal communities and their response to grazing in mixed-conifer forests and oak woodlands in the Cascade-Siskiyou National Monument in southern Oregon. My objectives were to (1) compare small-mammal communities among forest types and grazing intensities, (2) identify riparian affiliated species, and (3) describe microhabitat associations. Over two years,...
