Mapping Santa Cruz Island, California soils using a Geographic Information System and field survey

Creator:: Butterworth, Joel B.
Abstract:: Soils of Santa Cruz Island, California were mapped at the subgroup taxonomic level using a Geographic Information System (GIS) and field survey. Lithologic substrate, vegetative cover, slope gradient and slope aspect comprised the GIS data layers; these correspond to the soil-forming factors that were hypothesized to exert the greatest influence...

Sediment accumulation within weathering pits on Dance Hall Rock, Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument, Utah

Creator:: Taddie, Marissa C.
Abstract:: The purpose of this paper was to examine if the depth and degree of circularity of weathering pits affects the accumulation of sediment. Thirty pits were surveyed over two one-week periods on Dance Hall Rock. Weathering pits were measured to determine their maximum width, minimum width, vertical depth, and depth...

A map enhancement for terrain visualization under Night Vision Goggle compatible lighting systems

Creator:: Thompson, Wiley C.
Abstract:: For the Army aviator, Night Vision Goggle (NVG) flight in the tactical rotarywing profile is a very demanding, task saturated environment. Map navigation is just one of the many tasks that must be accomplished during flight. The dim, monochromatic lighting required for NVG flight alters map colors, decreases image detail...

Determination of Coastal changes in Lincoln County, Oregon using aerial photographic interpretation

Creator:: Smith, Elaine C.
Abstract:: In order for proper land use planning to occur in coastal Lincoln County, Oregon, coastal erosion rates should be determined. This has been accomplished by identifying the location of the Lincoln County coast in 1939, 1959, and 1973 and measuring the amount of change occurring between the years. The area...

The mapping of eelgrass in Willapa Bay, WA and an evaluation of coastal change analysis program mapping guidelines

Creator:: Hazen, Christopher J.
Abstract:: The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) Coastal Change Analysis Program (C-CAP) is developing a nationally standardized database on landcover and habitat change in the coastal regions of the United States. The Willapa Bay eelgrass mapping project was granted to the Columbia River Estuary Study Task force (CREST) of Astoria,...

Morphometric properties of nivation hollows on Hart Mountain, Lake County, Oregon

Creator:: Rademacher, Christopher L.
Abstract:: Hart Mountain is a basaltic fault block mountain in the semi-desert region of the northern Basin and Range province in south-central Oregon. Geomorphic processes associated with lingering snowpatches have formed nivation hollows, which are small scale depressions in the hillsides. The lingering snow in the hollows prohibits shrub growth. Bedrock...

One approach to the development of a simple Geographic Information System for management of natural resource areas

Creator:: Gaston, Greg G.
Abstract:: This project explored one set of tools and procedures that appeared to have the potential to make the handling of the spatial data necessary for resource management more efficient and effective. This project used data from the Nature Conservancy's Lawrence Memorial Grassland Preserve and was designed to explore a low...

A hydrological study of the Coast Fork/Middle Fork Willamette River Confluence Area

Creator:: Rogers, Valerie M.
Abstract:: The main purpose of this project is to describe the hydrologic characteristics, with and without regulation by dams, of the Coast and Middle Forks of the Willamette River, including the floodplain, from the confluence to approximately eight miles upstream. The research is intended to assess the future potential of the...

A channel stability inventory for two streams on the eastern slopes of the Coast Range, Oregon

Creator:: Sachet, James A.
Abstract:: Stream channel stability for two tributaries of Rock Creek in the Oregon Coast Range is evaluated by application of a Stream Reach Inventory. Stability nomographs are constructed for graphical analysis of erosion potential. Results indicate that channel stability can be classified. One stream is rated as 'Poor' in resistance to...

Monitoring individual particle transport in a gravel bedded stream using a passive radio transponder system, Corvallis, Oregon

Creator:: Childers, Elayne S.
Abstract:: Gathering empirical data on the factors and processes affecting bedload transport in the field is difficult. This project conducted during the winter of 1996 field tested a new passive method of positively tracking individual particle movement. The project was conducted in Oak Creek, a gravel bedded stream, located in Corvallis,...
