The late spring secondary precipitation maximum in the interior Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Quinn, Robert
Abstract:: The Late Spring Secondary Precipitation Maximum in the Interior Pacific Northwest results from a complex system of climatic controls. The Secondary Maximum is most strongly developed over the high plateau of Oregon immediately in the lee of the Cascade Mountains. Local topographic organization exerts strong control over the magnitude and...

Advancements in the Monitoring of Forests and Quantification of Live Aboveground Biomass Using Moderate Resolution Spaceborne Multispectral Imagery and Synthetic Aperture Radar Data

Creator:: Kilbride, John B.
Abstract:: The objective of this dissertation is to enhance the monitoring of forest ecosystems through the utilization of remotely sensed data to address the exigencies posed by the Anthropocene. On a global scale, rising temperatures and fluctuating precipitation patterns have strained forests and produced shifts in natural disturbance regimes. Additionally, the...

Factors affecting rural land value in the central coastal zone of Oregon

Creator:: Hartsook, Thomas Edward
Abstract:: The physical characteristics and spatial location of land are hypothesized to be significant inputs to its valuation. This research evaluates the influence of locational, economic, and physical site variables on the assessed value of real property. Evaluation of such influences is based on a stratified systematic sample of land parcels...

Age structure, developmental pathways, and fire regime characterization of Douglas-fir/western hemlock forests in the central western Cascades of Oregon

Creator:: Tepley, Alan J.
Abstract:: Descriptions of the fire regime in the Douglas-fir/western hemlock region of the Pacific Northwest traditionally have emphasized infrequent, predominantly stand-replacement fires and an associated linear pathway of stand development, where all stands proceed along a common pathway until reset by the next fire. Although such a description may apply in...

Determination of geographic information system database characteristics : an application of the information integration theory

Creator:: Brooks, Kris
Abstract:: The development of a geographic information system (GIS) requires the development of large databases of spatially related information. Scale, resolution and the classification of thematic data can vary considerably in terms of the level of detail at which the data are compiled and converted to machine readable form. The level...

The visualization of perspective systems and iconology in Dürer’s cartographic works : an in-depth analysis using multiple methodological approaches

Creator:: Wörz, Adèle Lorraine
Abstract:: This dissertation uses a new methodological approach for an in-depth analysis of three cartographic works. Studies within the discipline of the history of cartography have followed various methodologies throughout the past century. This dissertation argues that in order to come to a more complete understanding of how maps were produced...

Models relating camping to river terrace characteristics along the Rogue Scenic Waterway

Creator:: Pfister, Robert E.
Abstract:: The degree to which camping is related to selected characteristics of river terraces along the Rogue Waterway, Oregon has been analyzed. Previous attempts to formulate models relating campsite choice to characteristics of the natural environment focused on camping parties engaged in auto-camping and the aggregate population behavior rather than on...

The historic and contemporary ecology of western Cascade meadows : archeology, vegetation, and macromoth ecology

Creator:: Highland, Steven A.
Abstract:: Montane meadows in the western Cascades of Oregon occupy approximately 5% of the landscape, but contribute greatly to the region's biodiversity. Western Cascades meadows are dynamic parts of the landscape and have contracted by over 50% in the past two hundred years in the HJ Andrews Experimental Forest (hereafter Andrews...
