Remote sensing applications in hydrogeothermal exploration of the northern Basin and Range province

Creator:: Hodler, Thomas William, 1944-
Resource Type:: Dissertation

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...

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...

The delineation of landslides in the Lincoln County, Oregon coastal zone

Creator:: Gentile, John Richard
Abstract:: A study conducted along the Lincoln County, Oregon coast delineated the exact location of 153 landslides. The landslides were found through the interpretation of aerial photographs. Each landslide was verified in the field and its class (ancient, historic, recent), type (slump, debris slide or flow, planar slide), and status (stable,...

Water and sewerage services for Canadian Arctic communities

Creator:: Freeman, Richard Thomas
Abstract:: In attempting to provide modern water and sewerage services to the non-indigenous inhabitants of Canadian Arctic communities, engineering modifications are necessary owing to the presence of a continuous permafrost zone and a severe climate. Modifications are constraints on communities in that the costs of providing water and sewerage services are...

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...

Design criteria for a surface coal mine reclamation plan in northwest Colorado

Creator:: Marston, Richard Alan
Abstract:: The surface mining of coal has accelerated in northwest Colorado to the point where public pressure plus impending state and federal regulations dictate the need for comprehensive reclamation plans. A large coal company operating in Moffat County has solicited recommendations concerning soils, hydrogeology, geomorphology, aesthetics, wildlife, vegetation, microclimatology, and legal...

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....

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...

Identifying and planning for environmental hazards in Lincoln City, Oregon

Creator:: Anderson, Sterling Marshall
Abstract:: Lincoln City, Oregon is an area of active environmental processes and increasing development. To reduce conflict, a larger data base on environmental hazards was required. Previous studies in the area, remote sensing techniques and. field research were used to accomplish this end. Within Lincoln City, numerous environmental hazards were identified...
