  • The origin and characteristics of soil mounds and patterned ground in North Central Oregon

    Creator:
    Nelson, Clark A.
    Abstract:
    Sections of the landscape in north central Oregon are dominated by numerous soil mounds surrounded by stone rings. Mounds vary in size and shape depending on slope and mound density. Internal soil mass is free of stones to the bedrock level and is covered by successive layers of volcanic ash....

  • Terrain sensitivity of Oregon coastal sand areas

    Creator:
    Starr, Richard Merritt
    Abstract:
    Based on a pilot study completed near Heceta Beach, Oregon, guidelines have been proposed for the development of Oregon coastal sand areas. The guidelines, in the form of performance standards are designed with respect to the variability of coastal sand areas. Landscape units and vegetation associations were grouped to reflect...

  • Selected environmental concerns for small hydroelectric development in Oregon

    Creator:
    Kelly, Judy A.
    Abstract:
    Small hydroelectric development, the construction or reconstruction of small scale hydropower systems, has become a much discussed alternative for the future supply of U.S. energy. In the Pacific Northwest, the greatest potential for small hydro application is in the development of new dam sites. Although much is known about the...

  • An analysis of factors affecting near-ground temperature differences between three Mid-Willamette Valley stations

    Creator:
    Tsutsui, Setsuo Harry
    Abstract:
    Signification temperature differences were found to exist among three similarly situated stations in the Mid-Willamette Valley of Oregon. The stations were McMinnville, Salem, and Corvallis. Factors known to influence temperatures were compared with the temperature differences of the stations using available weather data. Factors examined included elevation, latitude, cloud cover,...
