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...

Creator:: Riegelmann, Edward A.
Abstract:: The Cape Verde Islands, off the coast of West Africa, are subject to violent precipitation events that cause extensive soil erosion and degradation of the landscape. A systematic approach to the collection, analysis, and dissemination of hydrophysical and geographic data was needed to effectively analyze the cause and effect variables...

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...

Creator:: Drost, Monica Buffkin
Abstract:: The Jackson/Frazier Wetland is a small wetland in Benton County, Oregon. It has one main inf lowing stream, Jackson/Frazier Creek, and one main outfiowing stream, a man-made drainage ditch. Streamflow measurements were collected for both streams over a four month period of November 1983 to February 1984. This data was...

Creator:: Lumban-Tobing, Pago
Abstract:: A slope stability map is created for the Astoria Basin, northwestern Oregon. The stability analysis is based upon a topographically based model, TOPOG model. The model predicts the occurrence of subsurface water-logging which reduces the shear-strength of a slope-profile. Simply stated, subsurface saturated zones occur wherever the local drainage flux...

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...

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...

Creator:: Lane, Forest J.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to review the historical development of the central ideas of military geography and terrain analysis and to examine these new research initiatives from that perspective. Although the mobility and technological aspects of warfare have changed rapidly, the essential geographic nature of warfare has remained...
