Spatial and temporal patterns of "super-old" Douglas-fir trees of the central western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Giglia, Sheryl K.
Abstract:: Old-growth in the Pacific Northwest is generally defined as trees that are more than 200 years old. A great deal of analysis and discussion about old-growth forests in western Oregon, however, has focused on the relatively widespread 400 to 500 year age class of primarily Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) trees. The...

The Spatial distribution of parks and crime in Seattle, Washington

Creator:: Weems, Candice Michelle
Abstract:: Parks help to build social cohesion within a community. Urban open spaces offer a sense of place, act as the focal points for public gatherings, and provide an opportunity for social networking (Francis, 2003; Hayward, 1989). While offering so much they are also known to be places of disgust and...

The use of ecological principles for riparian zone management in four forest planning documents

Creator:: Sinton, Diana Stuart
Abstract:: The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the extent to which ecological principles were used in four documents of differing scope and intent, that address management of forest resources and riparian zones in three National Forests of the Pacific Northwest. We use the phrase "ecological principles" in a very...

A study of varying logging practices on stream temperature in the Blue River drainage, Western Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Nicolello, Jon
Abstract:: Three (3) streams with desired similar characteristics, located in the Blue River Watershed in the Central Oregon Cascades, were studied to better understand the impacts of forest harvest on stream temperature and aquatic habitat. Of the 3 designated streams, North Fork Quartz Creek, Blue River Face, and Wolf Mann, only...

Effects of harvest and roads on in-stream wood abundance in the Blue River Basin, western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Czarnomski, Nicole M.
Abstract:: Despite many studies of large wood in streams, few landscape scale studies have been conducted. Large-scale studies can reveal how the history of forest harvest and road building has influenced wood patterns in streams of the Pacific Northwest. This study examined the relationships between wood in streams, timber harvest, and...

A Novel Approach to Process-based River Restoration in Oregon : Practitioners’ Perspectives, and Effects on In-stream Wood

Creator:: Bianco, Stephanie R.
Abstract:: The widespread fragmentation, channelization, and simplification of river ecosystems has had acute environmental impacts, including degradation of water quality and habitat and biodiversity loss (Vörösmarty et al., 2010). These concerns have incited an increased focus on reestablishing ecological and hydrogeomorphological functions and improving habitat that has been lost in riverine...

Forestry herbicide use on private forest lands in Lincoln and Benton County Oregon, 1991-1994

Creator:: Godino, John Alessandro
Abstract:: The use of phenoxy herbicides is an established practice in industrial forestry, particularly in the Pacific Northwest. Forestry herbicide use in this region has often been controversial. To better understand the spatial patterns of herbicide use and the potential for human health and environmental impacts, a landscape level perspective is...

Diversity, Generalization, and Specialization in Plant-Pollinator Networks of Montane Meadows, Western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Helderop, Edward
Abstract:: Despite the importance of plant-pollinator interactions for ecological communities, few long-term observational studies have been conducted of plant-pollinator networks. Using four years of plant-pollinator interaction data from 18 meadows in the Willamette National Forest, Oregon, this thesis examined how meadow size, the amount of nearby meadow habitat, weather, degree days,...

Trends in streamflow from old growth forested watersheds in the western Cascades

Creator:: Moore, Kathleen M.
Abstract:: Increasing temperatures in western North America are expected to result in a decline in winter snowpacks, earlier snowmelt, and a shift in the timing of streamflows, with an increasing fraction of streamflows occurring earlier in the water year and drier conditions during the summer. However, few streamflow datasets have associated...

Influence of spatial and temporal factors on plants, pollinators and plant-pollinator interactions in montane meadows of the western Cascades Range

Creator:: Pfeiffer, Vera W.
Abstract:: Montane meadows comprise less than 5% of the landscape of the western Cascades of Oregon, but they provide habitat for diverse species of plants and pollinators. Little is known about plant-pollinator network structure at these sites. This study quantified plant-pollinator interactions over the summer of 2011, based on six observations...
