Fall directions and breakage of riparian trees along streams in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:

Sobota, Daniel J.

Abstract:

In the Pacific Northwest, regulatory agencies have recently implemented management strategies for restoration and maintenance of wood recruitment to streams over time. This allochthonous organic material is a critical component in the geomorphic and biological structure of forested streams. Mathematical models are commonly used to evaluate long-term wood dynamics in...

Coexistence of top predators in headwater streams : pathways of intraguild predation between Pacific Giant salamander larvae and cutthroat trout

Creator:

Rundio, David E.

Abstract:

The coexistence of multiple predators may have important consequences for the structure and function of communities. Interactions between predators may strongly affect their combined direct and indirect effects on prey populations and lower trophic levels. Predators often have size-structured populations, which may result in intraguild predation characterized by complex trophic...
