Effects of wildfire on soil hydraulic properties on hillslopes in southwestern Oregon

Creator:

Cole, Ryan

Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of wildfire on soil hydraulic properties of forested hillslopes. The study site was located within the Stouts Creek wildfire, which burned approximately 10,705 ha of forest in southwestern Oregon in summer 2015. Three soil hydraulic properties (soil moisture, unsaturated hydraulic...
