Stream channel stability and sensitivity to landscape history and land use changes in Kelley Creek, Portland, Oregon

Creator:

Murphy, Yarrow M.

Abstract:

This study examines stream channel erosion processes in a small urbanizing watershed influenced by deposits of the Columbia Basin catastrophic floods: Kelley Creek, a 12-km² tributary of Johnson Creek, located just east of Portland, Oregon. Information on landscape history, stream channels, and sediment dynamics was compiled. The effects of future...

Temporal and Spatial Variability of Channel Adjustment to Floods in a 5th order Forested Mountain Stream

Creator:

Cromer, Leah

Abstract:

Mountain rivers are important aquatic ecosystems that regulate sediment and water delivery to higher order streams. While previous studies have debated the roles of hillslope and fluvial processes in driving change in channel morphology of mountain rivers, few have examined how these processes influence channel response over longer timescales. The...

Spatio-Temporal Patterns of Tree Establishment in the M1 Meadow of the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest

Creator:

Jones, Katherine E.

Abstract:

Montane meadows in the Cascade Range of Oregon have been declining due to tree establishment since records began. Montane meadow complexes in the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest shrank by 60 to 75% from 1949 to 2005, but fine scale temporal and spatial processes of tree establishment in these meadows are...
