Controls on movement of selected landslides in the Coast Range and western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:

Wong, Bernard Bong-Lap

Abstract:

The movement characteristics of five landslides are compared and interpreted based on records of approximately 10-years duration. Condon landslide in the Oregon Coast Range has consistently exhibited brief (1 - 8 days) movement episodes in wet winter months, separated by long periods of no movement. The translatory movement is probably...

Landslide occurrence in the Elk and Sixes River basins, southwest Oregon

Creator:

McHugh, Margaret H.

Abstract:

Timber management of coastal watersheds in southwest Oregon has been complicated by the need to protect anadromous fish habitat from accelerated stream sedimentation resulting from management activity. The rugged terrain of the Elk and Sixes River basins is underlain by the complex geological province of the Klamath Mountains, in which...

Modeling slope stability uncertainty : a case study at the Andrews Experimental Forest

Creator:

Murillo, Michelle L.

Abstract:

A simple debris-slide model, employing a digital elevation model (DEM) and geological data, was used in a geographic information system (GIS) to map slope stability in the Andrews Experimental Forest, located in the western Cascade Range in Oregon, USA. To evaluate the contribution of error in elevation to the uncertainty...
