Ecology of kokanee salmon and rainbow trout in Crater Lake, a deep ultraoligotrophic caldera lake (Oregon)

Creator:: Buktenica, Mark W.
Abstract:: Crater Lake, originally barren of fish, was stocked on an irregular basis from 1888 through 1941 with several species of salmonids. Two species occur in the lake today--kokanee salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) and rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). This study was initiated in the summer of 1986 to evaluate the ecology of...

Distribution and juvenile ecology of bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) in the Cascade Mountains

Creator:: Goetz, Frederick Allen
Abstract:: Distribution and juvenile habitat use of bull trout (Salvelinus confluentus) were surveyed in selected areas of the Upper Willamette, Deschutes, upper Yakima, and upper Cedar River basins in Oregon and Washington from 1989 to 1991, using day snorkeling, night snorkeling, and electrofishing. These methods were selected after a preliminary diel...

Ecology of woody riparian vegetation in tributaries of the Upper Grande Ronde River basin, Oregon

Creator:: Lytjen, Danna J.
Abstract:: Two studies on Catherine Creek and Meadow Creek of the Upper Grande Ronde River basin, quantified several physical and biotic influences on woody riparian community composition and structure. The Catherine Creek study examined the association of woody riparian species with elevational and geomorphic gradients. The Meadow Creek study examined the...

Benthic biological invasions in two temperate estuaries and their effects on trophic relations of native fish and community stability

Creator:: Castillo, Gonzalo C.
Abstract:: The extent of biological invasions, their role on the feeding of native fishes and their impact on community stability were investigated in Alsea Bay and Yaquina Bay, two estuaries on the central Oregon coast, USA. Most nonindigenous species (NIS) introduced in these intermediately invaded estuaries are considered byproducts of culturing...

Colonization and development of macroinvertebrate communities in laboratory streams

Creator:: Lomnicky, Gregg A.
Abstract:: Laboratory stream communities in simulated old growth second order streams were sampled June 1984 and June 1985 to advance an understanding of their organization and development, and their response to an environmental perturbance, the toxicant dieldrin. An interpenetrating hierarchical view of habitats and community subsystems was taken to conceptualize community...

Age, growth, and diet of fish in the Waldo Lake natural-cultural system

Creator:: Swets, Nicola L.
Abstract:: Waldo Lake, located in the Oregon Cascades, is considered to be one of the most dilute lakes in the world. Even with very low nutrient concentrations and sparse populations of zooplankton, introduced fish in the lake are large in size and in good condition when compared to fish from other...

Riparian vegetation and abundance of woody debris in streams of southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Ursitti, Victoria L.
Abstract:: Riparian vegetation (trees > 10 cm dbh), woody debris (> 10 cm diam, > 1 m long), channel, and landform characteristics were inventoried in mature (80-150 yrs) and old-growth riparian areas (>250 yrs) selected from small tributaries of the Coos and Coquille River basins in southwestern Oregon. Basal area of...

Classification and management of earthen aquaculture ponds, with emphasis on the role of the soil

Creator:: Bowman, James R.
Abstract:: Soil, water, and climatic classification systems are reviewed as background for the construction of a classification system for earthen aquaculture ponds. The physical and chemical properties of important soil types are also reviewed because of the critical role that the soil plays in earthen pond systems. A pond classification system...

Cumulative effects of land use on salmon habitat in southwest Oregon coastal streams

Creator:: Frissell, Christopher Andrew, 1960-
Abstract:: As part of a hierarchical approach to classifying watersheds and stream habitats based on geomorphic and geologic criteria, we defined ten classes of fluvial and lacustrine habitats at the scale of valley segments. Valley segments are landscape units which encompass surface waters and the adjacent floodplains and hillslopes with which...
