Geographic Information System (GIS) resource inventories: the Marys River Project

Creator:: Chapman, Shannen S.
Abstract:: The Greenbelt Land Trust (GLT) (a grass-roots conservation group in Oregon) is interested in a conservation plan for the Marys River Corridor. To facilitate this effort, a resource inventory was required and a Geographic Information System (GIS) data base used to compile the inventory (called the Marys River Project (MRP))....

A multi-trophic level examination of recreational impacts on a national wild and scenic river

Creator:: Wright, Kristopher Keith
Abstract:: Initially, components of an aquatic food web were examined to study impacts of recreational use on the aquatic ecology of Quartzville Creek, Oregon in 1995 and 1996. Measurements of the food web components consisted of observations of harlequin ducks (Histrionicus histrionicus), visual counts of the larval caddisfly Dicosmoecus gilvipes, benthic...

A model to predict the bacterial quality of a rangeland stream

Creator:: Biskie, Howard A
Abstract:: Grazing cattle usually have access to streams as a source of drinking water. A model was developed for the personal computer to predict the bacterial quality of these streams. The model estimates the number of organisms that enter the stream by the direct deposit of feces and by runoff from...

Constructed wetland treatment of fecal coliform in dairy pasture runoff

Creator:: Osborn, Erik C. J.
Abstract:: A constructed wetland receiving pasture runoff from a dairy in Tillamook, OR was monitored during the winter of 1997-98 in order to estimate coliform treatment efficiency during winter high flow periods. Monitoring occurred during four sampling periods, each lasting 2 to 4 days. Samples were taken every two hours from...

Landscape composition around northern spotted owl nests, central Cascade Mountains, Oregon

Creator:: Swindle, Keith A.
Abstract:: This study describes the composition of forest landscapes surrounding northern spotted owl (Strix occidentalis caurina) nests in the central Cascade Mountains of Oregon. I compared forest composition around 126 owl nests in 70 pair territories with forest composition around 119 points drawn randomly from all terrestrial cover-types, and around 104...

Decomposition of cattail and bulrush plant parts in a constructed wetland treating pulp mill effluent

Creator:: Walz, Anita
Abstract:: Dried cattail and bulrush plant pieces in mesh bags were incubated in the constructed wetland treating Pope & Talbot pulp mill effluent. Two ponds planted with each species and two depth ranges in each pond were chosen, to determine decomposition rates. Bags were withdrawn and analyzed at five time points...

Modeling large temperature swings in heat regenerators using orthogonal collocation

Creator:: Kokron, Carlos J.
Abstract:: This thesis examines the transient performance of packed bed heat regenerators when very large temperature differences are involved. The effects of gas temperature on the key gas physical properties of velocity, density and heat capacity were studied via simulation. Three models were developed and compared. The first model (HRKDV) considers...

Rapid effects of corticosterone on stress-related behaviors in an amphibian

Creator:: Chiavarini, Katherine E.
Abstract:: In the wild, when an animal is exposed to predators or harsh conditions, the stress response is often associated with fleeing behaviors, which are seen as increased locomotor behavior. Handling-stress procedures and intracerebroventricular (icy) injection of corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) have both been shown to cause an increase in locomotor activity...

Neuroanatomical distribution of androgen and estrogen receptors in the brain of the roughskin newt, Taricha granulosa

Creator:: Davis, Glen Andrew
Abstract:: The gonadal steroids, testosterone and estradiol, are known to be important modulators of neuronal functions and behaviors in most vertebrate species. These steroid hormones also elicit changes in neuropeptide synthesis and secretion, alter specific neurohormone receptor levels, and alter neuronal morphology and electrophysiology. Many of the actions of androgens and...
