Early-successional vegetation dynamics and microsite preferences following post-fire forest restoration in southwestern Oregon

Creator:

Kayes, Lori J.

Abstract:

Reforestation-based restoration of severely burnt plantations is one of the primary management activities following wildfire on U.S. federal lands. Restoration effects on early-seral plant and cryptogam communities have not been documented. The objectives of this study were, in severely burnt plantations two to four years post-fire, to examine the: (1)...

Biological Soil Crusts of the Great Basin : An Examination of their Distribution, Recovery from Disturbance and Restoration

Creator:

Condon, Lea A.

Abstract:

We are at risk of losing the sagebrush steppe in the floristic Great Basin to the invasion of Bromus tectorum L., cheatgrass. The floristic Great Basin includes the Central Basin and Range, the Northern Basin and Range, and the Snake River Plain. The Great Basin receives most of its precipitation...

Stand structures of Oregon white oak (Quercus garryana) woodlands and their relationships to the environment in southwestern Oregon

Creator:

Gilligan, Laurie A.

Abstract:

Large areas of non-coniferous communities in southwestern Oregon are thinned to reduce fire hazard and accomplish ecosystem restoration, under the assumption that current fuel loads are unnaturally high. Although Oregon white oak (Quercus garryana) woodlands are a characteristic landscape component in this region, little is known about their current or...

Ecological implications of trout introductions to lakes of the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness, Idaho

Creator:

Bahls, Peter F.

Abstract:

The widespread introduction of trout to naturally fishless mountain lakes in the western United States has been accompanied by little research. The ecological role of trout populations occurring in 91 lakes of the central Selway Bitterroot Wilderness, Idaho, was examined with respect to 1) the sampling variability of biological and...

Seasonal floodplain wetlands as fish habitat in Oregon and Washington

Creator:

Baker, Cynthia F.

Abstract:

To begin to understand freshwater seasonal floodplain fish communities in the context of human alteration of the physical system, species introductions and wetland restoration efforts, I studied fish assemblages in fifteen seasonal floodplain wetlands within four geographic regions (coastal, upper Columbia River estuary, Puget Sound and eastern Oregon/Washington) in the...

Impacts of fuel reduction thinning treatments on oak and chaparral communities of southwestern Oregon

Creator:

Perchemlides, Keith A.

Abstract:

In response to concerns about excessive stand densities and high-severity wildfires, land managers in the western United States are carrying out extensive programs of fuel reduction thinning. How will these sudden reductions in canopy cover and associated changes in habitat affect native and exotic herbaceous vegetation and canopy species regeneration?...

Understory herb and shrub responses to root trenching, pre-commercial thinning, and canopy closure in Douglas-fir forest of the western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:

Lindh, Briana C.

Abstract:

This thesis examines factors limiting understory herb presence and flowering in young second-growth Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) forests on the west side of the Cascade Mountains, Oregon, USA. I studied the belowground effects of canopy trees on understory herbs and shrubs in old-growth forests using trenched plots from which tree roots...

The Role of Intraspecific Functional Trait Variation in the Differential Decline of Meadow Species Following Conifer Encroachment

Creator:

Celis, Jessica

Abstract:

In the Oregon Cascade Range, conifer encroachment has reduced the extent of mountain meadows by as much as 50% since the mid-1940s. Although encroachment results in a general decline of meadow species abundance and diversity, species differ in their sensitivities to encroachment: some show rapid declines whereas others persist in...

The roles of provenance and phylogeny in recruitment, community assembly, and species coexistence in invaded California grasslands

Creator:

Brandt, Angela J.

Abstract:

Biological invasions pose one of the greatest threats to global biodiversity, but many naturalized invaders coexist with the native community. Community ecology theory provides a framework for understanding the mechanisms by which invaders might coexist with native species or exclude them from the community, thus informing management practices to maximize...

Drivers of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal community composition in roots : hosts, neighbors, and environment

Creator:

Phillips, Wendy S.

Abstract:

The vast majority of terrestrial plant species live in symbiosis with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF). AMF and plants live in complex networks, with roots of individual plants hosting multiple AMF, and single AMF colonizing multiple plants concurrently. Through the exchange of resources, the two partners of this symbiosis can have...
