The Impact of Overlapping Forest Disturbance Across a Stream Network in Western Oregon: Harvesting, Wildfire and Post-Fire Management Effects on Stream Water Nitrate and Riparian Soil Nutrients

Creator:

McCredie, Katherine E.

Abstract:

Understanding the magnitude and longevity of wildfire effects in forested watersheds and subsequent impacts to downstream aquatic ecosystems and communities requires congruent investigation into post-fire aquatic and terrestrial processes. However, results from wildfire studies are often confounded by pre- and post-fire land management actions and based on either hydrologic or...

Creator:

Nicholas, Jonah

Abstract:

Headwater streams represent the majority of the drainage area of a river network and provide many critical functions supporting aquatic and terrestrial ecosystem health. The riparian zones that surround these streams are transitional areas between terrestrial and stream ecosystems, which provide key habitat for aquatic and terrestrial organisms, especially during...
