The combined effects of vegetation control and seedling size class on Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.) Franco) seedling productivity on a site in Oregon

Creator:

Lefebvre, Robert F.

Abstract:

Controlling competing vegetation with the application of herbicides and increased seedling size at planting has been shown to increase seedling survival and growth. These two important reforestation tools have often been studied independently of each other, limiting comparisons that can be made between them. This study utilized a factorial treatment...

Trade-offs between management for fire risk reduction and northern spotted owl habitat protection in the dry conifer forests of southern Oregon

Creator:

Comfort, Emily Julia, 1974-

Abstract:

There is a perceived trade-off between fire risk reduction and northern spotted owl habitat protection in dry-conifer forests in southwestern Oregon. Management options for balancing this trade-off need to be sought at the landscape level. Applied landscape ecology suggests three important features to consider are (1) patch size and configuration...

Influence of silvicultural treatments, overstory, and understory vegetation on quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides) regeneration in southeastern Idaho

Creator:

Muñoz, Bethany L.

Abstract:

Quaking aspen (Populus tremuloides Michx.) is known to be a widely distributed, shade-intolerant and short-lived hardwood found in both seral, even-aged and stable, uneven aged stands. There have been reports of extensive aspen mortality, crown thinning, and branch dieback across North America that have been linked to the occurrence of...

Trophic cascades and large mammals in the Yellowstone ecosystem

Creator:

Painter, Luke E.

Abstract:

Reintroduction of wolves to Yellowstone National Park (YNP) in 1995-96 provided a rare opportunity to observe the response of an ecosystem to the return of a top predator, including possible reversal of decades of decline of aspen, cottonwood, and tall willows suppressed by intensive herbivory on elk winter ranges. To...

Dissertation
Encounters, norms, crowding, management, and behavioral responses of visitors at coastal state parks in Oregon

Creator:

Mouw, Wesley J.

Abstract:

With the baby boomer cohort retiring and arguably having more time for outdoor recreation, coupled with population increases and government agencies encouraging people to recreate outdoors, areas such as state and national parks will likely continue seeing high visitation. It is imperative, therefore, for outdoor recreation managers and researchers to...

Masters Thesis
Keying forest stream protection to aquatic ecosystem values in multi-ownership watersheds

Creator:

Pickard, Brian R.

Abstract:

Forested lands of western Oregon provide aquatic habitat for many fish and riparian dependent species, including a wide variety of salmon species. Current policies set riparian protections using fixed buffers on streams for federal and private lands based on stream type or size. These buffers can create a series of...
