The ecology of riparian ecosystems of Northeast Oregon : shrub recovery at Meadow Creek and the structure and biomass of headwater Upper Grande Ronde ecosystems

Creator:: Case, Richard L.
Abstract:: Riparian ecosystems play numerous and essential roles related to the quality and flow of water, and food/habitat for fish, and varieties of wildlife. Due to lateral and linear linkages throughout the landscape, these zones influence the integrity of the terrestrial as well as the entire aquatic-riverine ecosystem. Since Euro-American settlement...

Ecological effects of post-wildfire management activities (salvage-logging and grass-seeding) on vegetation composition, diversity, biomass, and growth and survival of Pinus ponderosa and Purshia tridentata

Creator:: Sexton, Timothy Ogden
Abstract:: Salvage-logging and artificial seeding of grass following wildfire are common practices in coniferous forests of the western United States, yet few studies have quantified the ecological effects of these post-fire activities. The effects of post-wildfire salvage-logging and grass-seeding on vegetation composition, aboveground biomass, and growth and survival of Pinus ponderosa...

Vegetation composition and response to fire of native Willamette Valley wetland prairies

Creator:: Pendergrass, Kathy L. (Connelly)
Abstract:: Fires set by Native Americans were important in shaping and maintaining Willamette Valley prairie plant communities. With fire exclusion after Euro-American settlement in the 1840's, composition of the remaining prairies shifted toward shrub and tree dominance with a concomitant decline in endemic prairie plant populations. I hypothesize that by restoring...

Hydrologic and vegetation responses associated with restoration of wetlands in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Coleman, Gregory A.
Abstract:: I examined hydrological and plant community changes associated with the implementation of a restoration management plan in two riparian meadows located within an agricultural landscape of the central Willamette Valley, Oregon. I established exclosure fencing (a form of passive restoration) in one agricultural field and established fencing and plugged a...

Ecology of woody riparian vegetation in tributaries of the Upper Grande Ronde River basin, Oregon

Creator:: Lytjen, Danna J.
Abstract:: Two studies on Catherine Creek and Meadow Creek of the Upper Grande Ronde River basin, quantified several physical and biotic influences on woody riparian community composition and structure. The Catherine Creek study examined the association of woody riparian species with elevational and geomorphic gradients. The Meadow Creek study examined the...

Floodplain vegetation following over 80 years of intensive land use and de-watering : Lower Owens River, California

Creator:: Risso, Derek A.
Abstract:: Riparian areas in the arid western United States are critical ecosystems that have been severely degraded by a variety of land and water uses over the last 100 years. In this study, the composition and structure of floodplain vegetation along the Lower Owens River in eastern California was quantitatively described...

Riparian vegetation composition and structure associated with channel morphology of headwater meadow streams in the Blue Mountains, northeast Oregon

Creator:: Toledo, Zachary O.
Abstract:: Relationships between the structure and composition of riparian vegetation with channel morphology were examined in three montane meadow streams in the headwaters of the Upper Grande Ronde River and North Fork John Day River in the Blue Mountains, northeast Oregon. Vegetation composition, root biomass, and channel morphology cross-sections were sampled...
