The use of motor carrier weigh station reports in commodity flow analysis of the Oregon forest products industry - 1976

Creator:: Howes, Edwin R.
Abstract:: Data on motor carrier commodity weights collected in 1976 at Oregon weigh stations by the Public Utilities Commission and the Department of Transportation are not in a form that readily allows for commodity flow analysis. A methodology is presented that reduces existing forest product commodity data into a graphically displayed...

Alternative uses for ryegrass lands

Creator:: Johnson, Lynn D.
Abstract:: Agricultural field burning in Oregon's Willamette Valley has been an accepted farming practice for sanitizing fields and removing stubble and residues left on fields after harvest since the early 1940s. Unfortunately, the smoke and debris created by the burning in combination with other pollutants have been causing health and environmental...

The geomorphic significance of log steps in forest streams of the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Marston, Richard A.
Abstract:: A log step develops when large woody debris extends across the active channel, creating a change in the water surface elevation as the stream spills over the log step. By forming a series of vertical falls, log steps reduce the amount of potential energy available for conversion to kinetic energy...

Soil mounds and patterned ground of the Lawrence Memorial Grassland Preserve

Creator:: Johnson, Colleen Burch
Abstract:: The Lawrence Memorial Grassland Preserve, located in Wasco County, Oregon, exhibits a wide variety of soil mounds and patterned ground features. The size, shape, and distribution of several elements of this peculiar landscape were analyzed with a detailed map, field observations, and statistical procedures. Common soil mound shapes are circular,...

A study of the geomorphological processes at the Siltcoos foredune breaching experiment site

Creator:: Hanna, James M.
Abstract:: The focus of this study was to examine and record the physical changes brought about by the breaching of the Siltcoos Foredune. The origin of the dunes and the physical processes that operate there must be considered before effects due to the breach can be studied. A series of field...

Some impacts of tourism based growth in a small town : a case study of Sisters, Oregon

Creator:: Brandt, Eric H.
Abstract:: While many small towns today find themselves struggling in the face of economic stagnation or decline, others must deal with rapid growth and the threat it poses to their valued quality of life. The small central Oregon town of Sisters offers an example of a town whose previously declining economy...

Perceptions of service quality of rural rail branchlines: a case study of southeast Benton County

Creator:: Gillam, John M.
Abstract:: American railroads have faced a declining share of freight traffic relative to other modes. Although a variety of reasons have been identified for this decline, most experts agree that a contributing problem is that the rail system is overdeveloped with unprofitable branchlines. Many economic models have been utilized to analyze...

Morphometric properties of nivation hollows on Hart Mountain, Lake County, Oregon

Creator:: Rademacher, Christopher L.
Abstract:: Hart Mountain is a basaltic fault block mountain in the semi-desert region of the northern Basin and Range province in south-central Oregon. Geomorphic processes associated with lingering snowpatches have formed nivation hollows, which are small scale depressions in the hillsides. The lingering snow in the hollows prohibits shrub growth. Bedrock...

Determination of geographic information system database characteristics : an application of the information integration theory

Creator:: Brooks, Kris
Abstract:: The development of a geographic information system (GIS) requires the development of large databases of spatially related information. Scale, resolution and the classification of thematic data can vary considerably in terms of the level of detail at which the data are compiled and converted to machine readable form. The level...

Hillslope mass movements and environmental relations - Moss Creek, Oregon

Creator:: Stauch, Carola A.
Abstract:: A slide inventory was conducted for a small watershed in the northern Oregon Coast Range. Data on geology, topography and climate were used to evaluate land stability in the Moss Creek basin. As expected, a strong correlation with slope steepness was shown. In addition, failures predominantly occurred on slopes with...
