A sequence of glaciation based on relative dating parameters was established
in each of nine mountain ranges located along a northwest to southeast transect
through the northern Great Basin. Each sequence consists of two or three drift units.
Degree of weathering suggests that the younger drift unit in a two-fold...
A change to a warmer, drier climate beginning as early as 1900 was responsible
for triggering a dramatic, rapid retreat of Collier Glacier, Oregon, between 1924 and
1940. Although there was a dramatic decrease in precipitation contemporaneous with this observed "step-function" response of mass loss, it is unclear if climate...
A first-order approximation is made of the frequency and magnitude of bedload transport downstream of the Pelton-Round Butte Dam Complex, lower Deschutes River, Oregon with implications for salmonid spawning habitat. Field measurements of channel hydraulics, geometry, and particle size were combined with one-dimensional hydraulic and bedload transport models to determine...
Six headwalls in the central Oregon coast range were selected for study of soil engineering properties and vegetativecharacteristics important for analysis of slope stability. The headwalls were considered representative of those which would be candidates for timber leave areas due to geomorphic and topographic features, including steepness of slope and...
