Streambed scour and redeposition behavior in streambed simulated culverts over an annual period

Creator:: Stewart, Anna
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to provide first order observations of bed level changes occurring in streambed simulated culverts throughout an annual period. To accomplish this, 30 culvert sites were selected in Oregon and Washington, and monitored over, at least, a 2 year period. Streambed scour and redeposition data...

Exploring the Differences between Lagrangian and Eulerian Reference Frames for Stream Temperature Data

Creator:: Egan, Fey Frentress
Abstract:: Stream temperature research relies on reference frames in which to project data. An important decision in the project design is which frame of reference to use. This aspect of research planning is not always given the consideration of thought that would lead to the best decision. In this thesis, two...

Sunbeam: A Fairy Tale

Creator:: Cummings, Laura L.
Abstract:: The heroine of this fantasy novel is Alina who lives in a medieval-like time and place. The day before her 20th birthday, in an impetuous moment, she breaks a local superstition by standing in a sunbeam. This allows a fairy to kidnap her and take her to the fairy castle...

Simple Moving Averages: A Ten-Year Test

Creator:: Wilder, Eric M.
Abstract:: The intent of this thesi s is to prove whether or not simple moving averages can be used to predict the future price performance of stocks and outperform the buy-and-hold method of investing in the stock market. The importance of this research is that if moving averages can predict future...

A decision support system for mechanized harvesting

Creator:: Steffert, Alan H.
Abstract:: When considering a mechanized harvesting operation, the harvest planner or researcher is faced with a multitude of modern equipment choices. A decision support system (DSS) is presented to assist in selecting the appropriate level of mechanization. The DSS examines individual machines and formulates mechanized harvesting systems from them that adequately...

FishXing: evaluation of fish passage culvert model and comparision with Oregon Department of Forestry's compliance with fish passage and peak flow requirements at stream crossings

Creator:: Morrissette, Brett A.
Abstract:: FishXing (fish crossing), a computer aided stream crossing culvert model designed to analyze fish passage through culverts was compared with results of an Oregon Department of Forestry fish passage monitoring report. FishXing was created at Humboldt State University through sponsorship from the US Forest Service, USDA, Stream Team, Six Rivers...

Production rates of skyline, balloon, and helicopter yarding systems from gross time study analysis

Creator:: Curtis, Richard James
Abstract:: This paper describes the analysis of data from a three-year gross time study of skyline, balloon, and helicopter yarding systems operating in Western Oregon. Data collection activities were designed and supervised by the Pacific Northwest Forest and Range Experiment Station, U.S.D.A. Forest Service. The specific logging systems studied were running...

Development of a cable logging system analysis package for micro-computers

Creator:: Chung, Joosang
Abstract:: A computer program package to estimate cable yarding payload capability was made. The package was intended to expand applicability of existing packages and to be user friendly. It has six system options: live skyline, standing skyline, running skyline, slackline, multispan and highlead. In the standing skyline and multispan analyses, load...

Soil compaction from ground-based thinning and effects of subsequent skid trail tillage in a Douglas-fir stand

Creator:: Hogervorst, Johan Bryan
Abstract:: Although soil tillage has been used successfully to alleviate compaction of forest soil after logging in a number of management contexts, little is known about the feasibility of tilling in residual stands. In an attempt to weigh the benefits of tillage against possible damage done to residual trees during tillage,...

Log truck performance on curves and favorable grades

Creator:: Jackson, Ronald Kelton
Abstract:: This paper describes the results of a study of log truck travel speeds in three locations in Western Oregon on favorable grades and curves. Independent variables of grade, curve radius, width, ditch depth, superelevation, sight distance, time of day, and maximum engine braking horsepower were regressed against speed. Only grade...
