A physical and chemical characterization of stream water draining three Oregon Coast Range catchments

Creator:: Hale, V. Cody
Abstract:: Few studies have examined both long-term and fine-scale spatial variations in water quality of small streams in the Pacific Northwest. As such, a case study was conducted to determine if current physical and chemical properties of water in three streams located in the Oregon Coast Range differed from historically measured...

Effects of forest management on fish habitat and macroinvertebrates in northeast Oregon streams

Creator:: Carlson, Joan Y.
Abstract:: This study describes streams in the Blue Mountains and Wallowa Mountains of Northeastern Oregon in order to characterize the interactions between the terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems and to determine how logging affects those relationships. Five stream reach pairs, each consisting of an undisturbed reach and a similar reach flowing through...

Response of needle-litter decomposition and soil nitrogen mineralization to logging-debris manipulation and competing vegetation control in western Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Meehan, Nathan Andrew
Abstract:: Growing societal demand for forest products is pressuring managers to increase productivity from a finite land area, and it is expected that increased supply will come mostly from expansion of intensively managed stands. The USDA Forest Service and numerous collaborators created the Long-Term Soil Productivity (LTSP) network of research sites...

The role of strategic planning in the management of fire-prone western Oregon forests for maximizing terrestrial carbon stocks over a 100-year horizon

Creator:: Vanderberg, Michael R.
Abstract:: Current frameworks for analyzing forest carbon offset projects in disturbance-prone western forests often fail to address the dynamic nature of carbon pathways through time. They do not account for the probability of loss due to wildfire, which can influence the prediction of carbon storage at the end of a planning...

Using Tabu Search to solve tactical forest planning problems with spatial wildlife habitat goals and constraints

Creator:: Boston, Kevin Donald
Abstract:: A method was developed to formulate and solve a fifty-year tactical harvest scheduling problem that included spatial wildlife habitat goals and constraints for a 4800-acre watershed in Northwestern Oregon under four scenarios. Three goals and two habitat constraints were included in each scenario. The first goal was a volume goal....

Applications of Soil Science in Forest Landscape Planning : Challenges and Opportunities in the 21st Century

Creator:: Craigg, Terry Lee
Abstract:: Soils and other resource programs in both public land management agencies and private industry are continually being adapted to the challenges of evolving knowledge and experience in the field of forestry. This dissertation explores new ways of thinking about and using soils information in forest planning and management, with a...

Optimizing the primary forest products supply chain : a multi-objective heuristic approach

Creator:: Hamann, Jeff D.
Abstract:: This thesis is a collection of four submitted manuscripts that present methods to assist forest ecosystem service managers wanting to develop operational sampling, monitoring, and production plans for a set of specific quantifiable ecosystem services, which are formulated as a series of general multi-objective optimization problems. The problems are solved...

Buffer strip dynamics in the Western Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Sherwood, Kim
Abstract:: Although buffer strips have long been used as a protection tool when logging near streams, long-term studies investigating buffer strip dynamics are rare. Steinblums et al. (1984) inventoried 40 buffer strips 1 to 15 years old in the western Oregon Cascades beginning in the summer of 1975. Numerous site and...
