Creator:: Roath, Leonard Roy
Abstract:: Grazing on the mountainous forested ranges of the Camp Creek Unit, Malhuer National Forest, was typified by irregular distribution of free-ranging cattle. A combination of management and physical, topographic constraints caused cattle to concentrate on the riparian zone early in the grazing season in 1977 and 1978. A large percentage...

Abstract:: The effects of late spring defoliation on the winter forage quality of bluebunch wheatgrass (Agropyron spicatum [Pursh] Scribn. & Smith), Idaho fescue (Festuca idahoensis Elmer) and elk sedge (Carex geyeri Boott) and the response of wintering Rocky Mountain elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni Bailey) to changes in winter range forage quality...

Creator:: Miller, Richard F.
Abstract:: The objectives of this study were to evaluate environmental factors influencing use of several plant communities by cattle, elk and deer; determine under story production by plant species and the amount utilized by cattle, elk and deer in certain plant communities; evaluate the interactions of range use between cattle, elk...

Creator:: Gillen, Robert L.
Abstract:: Several aspects of cattle grazing behavior and distribution were studied on mountain rangeland dominated by ponderosa pine- Douglas fir, mixed conifer, and white fir forest communities in northeastern Oregon. The association between upland distribution, determined by forage utilization and by direct cattle observation, and several habitat factors was studied through...

Creator:: McInnis, Michael Lindsay
Abstract:: Esophageal fistulation, stomach content analysis, fecal analysis, and ocular-estimate-by-plot are four of the most publicized methods of determining the diets of large herbivores. The principal objective of this study was to compare the relative values of each of these methods based upon information collected from bi-fistulated (esophageal and rumen) sheep...

Creator:: Korpela, Edwin J.
Abstract:: Seasonal trends in forage production and environmental parameters for five plant community types within a northeastern Oregon riparian zone were described and modeled using correlation and path analysis. Wet meadows produced the greatest amount of herbage biomass, followed by moist bluegrass meadows, gravel bars, forests and dry bluegrass meadows. Trends...

Creator:: Westenskow, Kathy Jo
Abstract:: Research was conducted near the Starkey Experimental Forest and Range in northeastern Oregon. Effects of defoliating bluebunch wheatgrass (Agropyron spicatum (Pursh) Scribn. and Smith) to increase the quality of regrowth available on elk (Cervus elaphus nelsoni) winter range were studied from 1988 through 1990. Clipping treatments were implemented to condition...

Creator:: Bryant, Larry Duane
Abstract:: This research was conducted on three study areas on elk winter ranges in Northeast Oregon. One was on the Starkey Experimental Forest and Range and the others were in the same vicinity. Plant appendages, spring and fall defoliation and fall growth of bluebunch wheatgrass were evaluated in terms of quality...
