Guano and Thousand-Virgin Sub-basins Watershed Assessment

Creator:: Harney County Watershed Council
Abstract:: The Guano and Thousand-Virgin Sub-basins occupy over 1.8 million acres in Harney and Lake Counties in Oregon. The portions of the sub-basins in Nevada are not assessed in this document. Harney County Watershed Council (HCWC) watershed assessments focus on summarizing data from existing research, resource inventories, and management plans. This...

Abstract:: A globally integrated carbon observation and analysis system is needed to improve the fundamental understanding of the global carbon cycle, to improve our ability to project future changes, and to verify the effectiveness of policies aiming to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and increase carbon sequestration. Building an integrated carbon observation...

Mutual mate choice in a terrestrial salamander, Plethodon shermani, with long-term sperm storage

Creator:: Eddy, Sarah L.
Abstract:: Sexual selection can influence the mating system of an organism through multiple mechanisms. These mechanisms result in variation in reproductive success among individuals, and include scramble competition, endurance rivalries, contests, mate choice and cryptic choice, and sperm competition. Understanding the mating system of a species requires the identification of which...

Progress and challenges in using stable isotopes to trace plant carbon and water relations across scales

Creator:: Werner, C., Schnyder, H., Cuntz, M., Keitel, C., Zeeman, M. J., Dawson, T. E., Badeck, F.-W., Brugnoli, E., Ghashghaie, J., Grams, T. E. E., Kayler, Z. E., Lakatos, M., Lee, X., Maguas, C., Ogee, J., Rascher, K. G., Siegwolf, R. T. W., Unger, S., Welker, J., Wingate, L., and Gessler, A.
Abstract:: table isotope analysis is a powerful tool for assessing plant carbon and water relations and their impact on biogeochemical processes at different scales. Our process-based understanding of stable isotope signals, as well as technological developments, has progressed significantly, opening new frontiers in ecological and interdisciplinary research. This has promoted the...

Water limitations on forest carbon cycling and conifer traits along a steep climatic gradient in the Cascade Mountains, Oregon

Creator:: Berner, L. T. and Law, B. E.
Abstract:: Severe droughts occurred in the western United States during recent decades, and continued human greenhouse gas emissions are expected to exacerbate warming and drying in this region. We investigated the role of water availability in shaping forest carbon cycling and morphological traits in the eastern Cascade Mountains, Oregon, focusing on...

Designing woodland roads

Creator:: Oregon State College. Federal Cooperative Extension Service, Bowers, S. (Steven Clay), and Garland, John J.
Abstract:: Provides detailed information for the non-engineer on how to locate, design, and construct a road. Topics include identifying desirable and undesirable land features, constructing crowned, inslope, outslope, full-bench, and balanced roads, meeting road width, alignment, grade, excavation, drainage, and other structural requirements, laying out curves, and directing construction. Includes 25...

Being Good When Not Doing Well: Examining the Effect of the Economic Downturn on Small Manufacturing Firms’ Ongoing Sustainability-Oriented Initiatives

Creator:: Panwar, Rajat, Nybakk, Erlend, Pinkse, Jonatan, and Hansen, Eric
Abstract:: How firms behave under conditions of decline and resource constraints has not been considered in the corporate sustainability literature. This leaves unanswered the question how much we should rely on firms’ sustainability-oriented voluntary initiatives at a time when the global economy continues to be weak and firms face persistent threats...

Modeling sea level rise impacts to Oregon’s tidal wetlands : Maps and prioritization tools to help plan for habitat conservation into the future

Creator:: Brophy, Laura S. and Ewald, Michael J.
Abstract:: Background: Tidal wetlands are important habitats for salmon and a diversity of other fish and wildlife species. They also trap sediment, buffer coastal communities from flooding and erosion, and perform other valued ecosystem services. Tidal wetlands currently exist just at and above sea level, and healthy tidal wetlands are able...
