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...

The geomorphic significance of log steps in forest streams of the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Marston, Richard A.
Abstract:: A log step develops when large woody debris extends across the active channel, creating a change in the water surface elevation as the stream spills over the log step. By forming a series of vertical falls, log steps reduce the amount of potential energy available for conversion to kinetic energy...

A comparison of false color composites in mapping and discriminating between salt-affected soils in Kings County, California

Creator:: Gutierrez, Carmelita
Abstract:: Spectral profiles, transformed divergence values, and feature space derived from Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) data were used to analyze the ability of four false color composites to discriminate between different classes of salt-affected soils. To compare the spatial distribution of salt-affected soil classes, maps were generated for each false color...

Developing a Geographic Information System county template to support tsunami evacuation route planning on the Oregon Coast

Creator:: Gomez, Kyle R.
Abstract:: Tsunamis pose a major threat to Oregon's coastal communities. Evacuation is the best method to mitigate for tsunamis. Planning for tsunami evacuation is underway in Oregon's coastal communities. Current methodologies use tsunami inundation models and population for evacuation planning. Tsunamis from a Cascadia subduction zone (CSZ) earthquake will create more...

Landsliding processes occurring on a McDonald-Dunn Forest hillslope

Creator:: Shively, David D.
Abstract:: Landslide processes occurring on a hillslope in McDonald-Dunn Forest on the eastern slope of the Oregon Coastal Range are described in terms of type, magnitude. minimum age and site characteristics. Debris flows and debris avalanches are the dominant types of slope movement occurring in the study area. Landslide events classified...

Storm-induced mass wasting in forested areas: conditions and characteristics for three Western Oregon study sites

Creator:: Robben, Joshua L.
Abstract:: Much of the rich forestlands of Oregon are subject to frequent mass wasting events, resulting in severe environmental and economic damages. Extensive research has shown that this landslide hazard is often exacerbated by many management activities. Following a severe storm event which triggered thousands of landslides, the Oregon Department of...

Vegetation classification of wild turkey habitat in Umpqua National Forest using color aerial photography

Creator:: Hazell, Bret Jack
Abstract:: This project focuses on the classification of vegetation as a habitat for wild turkeys. The vegetation classification discussed here is only one part of a study looking at habitat requirements, seasonal use patterns, and brood-rearing habits of wild turkeys in Southern Oregon. The vegetation classification was performed for an area...

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...

An assessment of a Stream Reach Inventory and Channel Stability Evaluation : predicting and detecting flood-induced change in channel stability

Creator:: Morét, Stephanie L.
Abstract:: Pre-flood (1995), and post-flood (1996) channel stability surveys were conducted on 22 reaches along Oak Creek, Benton County, Oregon in an effort to note if the flood of February 1996 altered the channel and if the channel stability survey that was being used accurately predicted the channels resistance to change...

Terrain sensitivity of Oregon coastal sand areas

Creator:: Starr, Richard Merritt
Abstract:: Based on a pilot study completed near Heceta Beach, Oregon, guidelines have been proposed for the development of Oregon coastal sand areas. The guidelines, in the form of performance standards are designed with respect to the variability of coastal sand areas. Landscape units and vegetation associations were grouped to reflect...
