Zooarchaeologjcal and Taphonomic Investigations of Site 35JA42, Upper Applegate River, Southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Schmitt, Dave N.
Abstract:: Site 35JA42 represents the first protohistoric village complex excavated in Southwest Oregon. Analyses of animal bones recovered from the site offer the first significant insights into human subsistence behaviors in this region. Although the faunal assemblage is extremely fragmented, detailed zooarchaeological analysis indicates that deer were the primary meat resource...

Western Juniper (Juniperus occidentalis) distribution, Bear Creek Buttes, Deschutes County, Oregon: some possible ecological and cultural influences

Creator:: Frates, Dennis Marshall
Abstract:: Several environmental and cultural factors were studied to explain the distribution of western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis Hook.) in an area one mile northwest of Millican, Oregon. In the study area juniper grows densely on upper south slopes and only sparsely occurs on upper north slopes. Juniper moisture stress was found...

Vulnerability and adaptation of Pacific Northwest shellfisheries to ocean acidification

Creator:: Katz, Brian G.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to understand the vulnerability and adaptive capacity of shellfish stakeholders in the Pacific Northwest who are adapting to ocean acidification (OA). This study developed a geovisualization tool of existing environmental data for assessing species-specific risk profiles to OA (based on their exposure and sensitivity),...

Vegetation ecology of Fraxinus latifolia communities in William L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon

Creator:: Heinitz, Eric Fajen
Abstract:: Composition and structure of Oregon ash (Fraxinus latifolia) woodlands in the William L. Finley National Wildlife Refuge, Oregon are described. Twenty stands dominated by Fraxinus latifolia were sampled with 500 m2 circular macroplots in which floristic microplot data were collected for plant community synthesis. Plant communities were identified by computer-assisted...

Vegetation classification of wild turkey habitat in Umpqua National Forest using color aerial photography

Creator:: Hazell, Bret Jack
Abstract:: This project focuses on the classification of vegetation as a habitat for wild turkeys. The vegetation classification discussed here is only one part of a study looking at habitat requirements, seasonal use patterns, and brood-rearing habits of wild turkeys in Southern Oregon. The vegetation classification was performed for an area...

Vegetation analysis and spatial visualization of a tidal salt marsh

Creator:: Buchner, Ed L.
Abstract:: Mitchell Marsh, a tidal salt marsh in the Salmon River Estuary, was diked in the early 1960s. Restoration of the marsh, which began in late 1978, consisted of partial dike removal. Several studies have been conducted in the marsh, addressing the status of the developing salt marsh plant communities. Species...

Variations in Alsea River flow: implications for Alsea Spit & inlet stability

Creator:: O'Neil, Douglas James
Abstract:: Based in part on previous work by this researcher, variables assumed to play a minor part in the process/ response system examined by the OSU Alsea Bay Hazard Study Team (1985-87)--river input and subsequent variations in hydrology--were more completely analyzed for their range of effects on the stability of Alsea...

Utilizing GIS for the collection of key variables in the analysis of an international freshwater basin spatial database

Creator:: Fiske, Gregory J.
Abstract:: The Geographic Information System (GIS) is an invaluable tool in manipulating and interpreting world scale datasets. In recent years it has become the standard link between water resource study and the ever-increasing numbers of high quality data sets. This paper describes the use of Geographic Information Systems for gathering and...
