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...

Blowout and spill occurrence model

Creator:: Sim, Lawrence H.
Abstract:: To assist with risk-assessment with deepwater and ultra-deepwater prospects for offshore energy extraction as well as provide a useful tool for oil spill response, a spatially-explicit model was developed for comprehensive simulations of a blowout event from the wellhead to final fate and degradation. The Blowout and Spill Occurrence Model...

A potential gross sales test for farmland: the synthesis and application of a rural resource planning tool

Creator:: Clinton, Patrick James
Abstract:: Due to recent changes in Oregon land-use regulations, agricultural resource lands within exclusive farm-use zones are being designated as high-value, important, or small-scale farmland according to their relative potential for commercial agriculture. Potential gross agricultural sales are used as a threshold in the designation of small-scale farmlands; however, the regulations...

A methodology for the evaluation of performance zoning

Creator:: James, Mark Jeffery
Abstract:: The purpose of the research is to develop a methodology whereby an objective evaluation of the performance approach to land use planning may be possible. The methodology includes questionnaires and a field sheet that relate to the administration process of permit application and indicators of quality in developments. The methodology...

Effects of earth-moon-sun geometry on sea tide accelerations and implications for periodicities of atmospheric phenomena

Creator:: Jacks, James F.
Abstract:: Sea tide heights predicted one year in advance are manipulated to give accelerations in centimeters per second per kilometer for the distances San Francisco to Humboldt Bay and Humboldt Bay to Astoria. Comparison of these accelerations to various earth-moon-sun lineups shows the accelerations are controlled by the 29.53 day lunar...

Comparison evaluation of two test models for identifying secondary resource lands

Creator:: McCallister, Michael J.
Abstract:: A process to distinguish between primary and secondary resource lands is currently a concern of state and local land-use agencies in Oregon. Two approaches for identifying Secondary Resource Lands have been developed. The Land Conservation and Development (LCDC) staff, in conjunction with the County Planning Directors Association, have developed one...

Comparison of systematic unaligned sampling designs for estimating land uses

Creator:: Amri, Siti Zabedah
Abstract:: The direction and scope of this research paper follows closely an earlier sampling study conducted by Behm and Pease (1985). In this pilot project, the authors employed a two-stage random sampling method in determining land use estimates. Anderson's land use classification system was used for data categorization (Table 1). The...

A comparison of two resource evaluation models used for classifying primary and secondary resource lands in Jackson County Oregon

Creator:: Vial, John Nicholas
Abstract:: Since 1983, the Oregon legislature and the Land Conservation and Development Commission have been attempting to develop a process whereby secondary resource lands can be identified and designated. The most recent attempt at developing a secondary lands model was completed in 1990 and was tested in six Oregon Counties. Planners...

Field evaluations of parcel-specific and area applications of Senate Bill 237 marginal lands criteria

Creator:: Holoch, Richard Dale
Abstract:: Marginal agricultural land is currently a focus of concern for public land use agencies in Oregon. Two approaches for evaluating marginal agricultural lands are the Land Evaluation and Site Assessment (LESA) model of the U.S. Soil Conservation Service, and the marginal lands criteria of the 1983 Oregon Legislature's Senate Bill...

Geographic Information Systems and rural land use analysis : an evaluation of alternative data sources

Creator:: Mickaelson, Nels E.
Abstract:: A Geographic Information System (GIS) can be a powerful tool for solving land use planning problems. The synthesis, analysis, and depiction of spatial data make it a valuable tool for land use planners. A primary issue with GIS is the cost and time required to develop a functional system. One...
