The effects of irrigation water withdrawals on macroinvertebrate community structure and life history strategies

Creator:

Miller, Scott W.

Abstract:

I used current water management practices in central and eastern Oregon and Washington as natural experiments to quantify the effects of irrigation water withdrawals on macroinvertebrate community structure and life history strategies. Reduced discharge had direct (e.g. decreased velocity and wetted habitat) and indirect (e.g. increased conductivity and temperature) effects...

Influence of landscape-scale variables on the age and growth of coastal cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarkii clarkii in headwater streams

Creator:

Rehe, William G., Jr.

Abstract:

This thesis provides the first general description of the natural variation in age structure, growth rates, and survival in headwater populations of coastal cutthroat trout Oncorhynchus clarkii clarkii from western Oregon, and a subsequent synthesis of these life-history characteristics across the range of the subspecies. Age, growth, and survival were...
