Spatial and temporal characteristics of groundwater levels adjacent to beaver ponds in Oregon

Creator:

Sharps, Diana E.

Abstract:

This study was undertaken to evaluate the spatial and temporal characteristics of riparian groundwater tables adjacent to beaver ponds. The research was conducted in two parts; in the first portion a two-dimensional, finite-difference computer model was developed and utilized to simulate groundwater elevations through time in pond-adjacent aquifers. Two types...

Recruitment trends and physical characteristics of course woody debris in Oregon Coast Range streams

Creator:

Heimann, David C.

Abstract:

This study investigated the long-term consequences of timber stand removal on the recruitment, physical characteristics, and spatial distribution of coarse woody debris in small (second- and third-order) streams of the Oregon Coast Range. A chronosequence of stream-stand systems, ranging from 21- to 140-years since disturbance (YSD), were sampled to determine...
