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...

The origin and characteristics of soil mounds and patterned ground in North Central Oregon

Creator:: Nelson, Clark A.
Abstract:: Sections of the landscape in north central Oregon are dominated by numerous soil mounds surrounded by stone rings. Mounds vary in size and shape depending on slope and mound density. Internal soil mass is free of stones to the bedrock level and is covered by successive layers of volcanic ash....

Modeling quaternary geomorphic surfaces using laboratory, field, and imaging spectrometry in the lower Colorado Sonoran Desert : the Chameleon concept

Creator:: Lashlee, Jon D.
Abstract:: Chameleon is a physics-based landscape modeling software system designed for modeling and simulations applications. Hyperspectral laboratory, field, and imaging spectrometer measurements are collected as empirical foundation data. Linear spectral unmixing is performed to decompose each image pixel into spectral endmembers. Mathematical manipulation of these fractional abundances and introduction of new...

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,...

An Investigation of Photographic Band-Ratioing

Creator:: Fisher, Scott William
Abstract:: A photographic band-ratioing technique was investigated. The data source consisted of 70 mm Landsat Multispectral Scanner (MSS) negatives. The process would require combining registered positive and negative transparencies to achieve a ratio modulation in the resulting print. This would also require compensation for atmospheric effects on the original negatives by...

Hillslope mass movements and environmental relations - Moss Creek, Oregon

Creator:: Stauch, Carola A.
Abstract:: A slide inventory was conducted for a small watershed in the northern Oregon Coast Range. Data on geology, topography and climate were used to evaluate land stability in the Moss Creek basin. As expected, a strong correlation with slope steepness was shown. In addition, failures predominantly occurred on slopes with...

Eolian landforms and wind power prospecting in the Central Columbia River Basin

Creator:: McClenahan, Michael R.
Abstract:: Sand dunes are used as indicators of wind power potential and examples are presented of their application as a prospecting technique at four study sites in the Central Columbia River Basin. Aerial reconnaissance is combined with interpretation of photography and topographic maps as a basis of sand dune analysis. Sand...

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...

The feasibility of applying air photo interpretation to the locating, analyzing and development of wind power sites

Creator:: Maule, Peter Anthony
Abstract:: If wind power is to become a viable energy alternative, a rapid and reliable cost effective methodology must be established, whereby large areas can be surveyed for windy sites and those sites can be evaluated. Based primarily on locating wind deformed vegetation, this paper establishes the feasibility of using air...

Microcomputer simulation for subsurface water potential on hillslope

Creator:: Malstaff, Greg
Abstract:: This research paper focuses upon subsurface flow because of its dominant influence on the other types of hilislope water flow processes. The basic theory of water movement is quickly discussed in order to build the reader's general background knowledge. With this background, the journey starts into the poorly understood realm...
