Social, Ecological, and Economic Outcomes Associated with Stewardship Forestry in the Siuslaw Watershed

Creator:: Colón–Almodóvar, Yamilette M.
Abstract:: In 1994, with the approval of the Northwest Forest Plan, the livelihood of individuals in the surrounding communities of the Siuslaw National Forest and Siuslaw Watershed were further impacted by already diminished traditional timber practices. In 2003, the United States Forest Service developed an innovative program, stewardship contracting, aimed at...

Monitoring Restoration in South Sister Creek : The Effect of Stream Enhancement Structures on Water Temperature

Creator:: Harewood, Alessandra Greer
Abstract:: This pilot study of South Sister Creek (8 km length) examined stream-scale (i.e., longitudinal trends) and sub-reach scale (less than 100 m) water temperature. Hourly summer temperature time-series data were gathered at four to seven locations along South Sister Creek in 2006, 2012, and 2013 and were used to explore...

Developing a plan for the national coordination of geospatial technology education : a community college perspective

Creator:: Sullivan, Deidre E.
Abstract:: Geospatial technology is a rapidly growing and changing field. The term geospatial technology (GST) refers to geographical information systems (GIS), global positioning systems (GPS), and remote sensing (RS), all emerging technologies that assist the user in the collection, analysis, and interpretation of spatial data. The speed at which new fields...

Multi-Centennial Response of ENSO Under Varying Atmospheric CO2

Creator:: Alder, Jay R.
Abstract:: The El Niño/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) affects millions of people via global teleconnections in the form of drought and torrential rainfall that impact agriculture and food production in many countries. Yet how ENSO will respond to a warming world is uncertain and a greatly debated topic. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate...

Evaluation of Deforestation in the Rio Platano Biosphere Reserve, Honduras

Creator:: Wade, Michael C.
Abstract:: Satellite imagery has been a useful tool in monitoring land cover changes, including changes within protected areas. In the 1980’s and 1990’s Honduras created over 100 protected areas, yet few resources have been dedicated to their management. This study used Landsat satellite imagery to evaluate deforestation in the Río Plátano...

Modeling Fine-scale Avian Distributions and Densities with Multi-scale Models: Predicting the Past and Present

Creator:: Hallman, Tyler A.
Abstract:: Models of a species’ distribution and models of a species’ spatially explicit density are valuable tools for conservation. They allow researchers to estimate changes in distributions, densities, and populations, based on changing environmental conditions. To trust such estimates, however, the quality of models is exceedingly important. Model performance can be...

Distribution and habitat use of bull trout following the removal of nonnative brook trout

Creator:: Renner, Dirk
Abstract:: Invasion by nonnative brook trout (Salvelinus fontinalis) often results in replacement of bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) in western North America, but the causal mechanisms are not well understood. Removal of brook trout from 1992 to 2000 from Sun Creek in southern Oregon, provided an opportunity to investigate the changes in...

Effects of spatial scale and heterogeneity on avian occupancy dynamics and population trends in forested mountain landscapes

Creator:: Frey, Sarah J. K.
Abstract:: Population trends and patterns in species distributions are the major currencies used to examine responses by biodiversity to changing environments. Effective conservation recommendations require that models of both distribution dynamics and population trends accurately reflect reality. However, identification of the appropriate temporal and spatial scales of animal response, and then...

Life History Trade-offs: The Effects of Habitat Selection on Columbian Black-tailed Deer Survival in Oregon

Creator:: Clark, Jessica S.
Abstract:: The assessment of habitat quality for wild populations requires evaluation of vital rates associated with the use of that habitat. Factors associated with bottom-up (forage) or top-down (predation) regulation and the relative contribution of these processes on ungulate populations are difficult to quantify, especially for a cryptic, but widely distributed...

Lamprey of the Goose Lake Basin: A Multi-Scale Habitat & Distribution Analysis

Creator:: Dickey, Jacob C.
Abstract:: Two ecologically important lamprey species found in the endorheic Goose Lake Basin face conservation threats; however, relatively little is known about their habitat needs or spatial distribution. Lamprey and their habitat are often found to be patchy; to evaluate these relationships for the lamprey in this basin, I utilized a...
