A characterization of road hydrology in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:

Gilbert, Erin H.

Abstract:

Forest roads alter hillslope hydrologic processes by intercepting, concentrating, and rerouting storm runoff. Current road drainage guidelines are based on minimizing erosion and do not take into account the impact of forest roads on hillslope hydrology. This work monitors ditch flow and rainfall for 10 road segments over the course...

Masters Thesis
Spatial and temporal dynamics of sediment and wood in headwater streams in the central Oregon Coast Range

Creator:

May, Christine L.

Abstract:

Channels that were scoured to bedrock by debris flows provided unique opportunities to calculate the rate of sediment and wood accumulation, to make inferences about processes associated with input and transport of sediment, and to gain insight into the temporal succession of channel morphology following disturbance. In an intensive investigation...
