Do vigorous young forests reduce streamflow? Results from up to 54 years of streamflow records in eight paired-watershed experiments in the H. J. Andrews and South Umpqua Experimental Forests

Creator:: Perry, Timothy D.
Abstract:: This study quantified the magnitude and timing of summer streamflow deficits in paired-watershed experiments in the Cascade Range of Oregon where mature and old-growth conifer forests were subjected to clearcutting, patch cutting, and overstory thinning treatments in the 1960s and 1970s. Hydrologic effects of clearcutting, small-patch cutting, and overstory thinning...

Geographic information systems for coral reef conservation, capacity building, and public education in American Samoa

Creator:: Larkin, Emily M.
Abstract:: Coral reefs around the world face numerous threats, both natural and anthropogenic, including pollution, natural disasters, invasive species, habitat destruction, and destructive methods of fishing. Given enough time, coral can recover from natural disasters, but anthropogenic threats decrease corals’ ability to recover from things such as hurricanes. It is difficult...

Change detection of land cover in a meadow landscape : the“Ranches” meadow, Silver Falls State Park, Oregon

Creator:: Anderson, Carl G.
Abstract:: From a landscape ecology perspective, meadows are often seen as landscapes in transition. Succession and change in meadows may be investigated by considering the physical and anthropogenic factors that influence the landscape through time. What is often unknown is how changes occur and how physical and anthropogenic factors contribute to...

A geographic approach to French wine regulation : finding new perspectives in Burgundy

Creator:: Svela, Alexander and Svela, Alexander J.
Abstract:: Since 1935, France has introduced a set of strict national wine rules and regulations, the Appellation d’Origine Contrôlée (AOC). The AOC limits fraud and oversees quality control by basing the rules on terroir. High quality from terroir comes has both physical and cultural factors. Before 1935, France produced a variety...

If you build it, will they come? Evolution towards the application of multi-dimensional GIS to fisheries-oceanography

Creator:: Vance, Tiffany C.
Abstract:: The development of new technologies in science is a balance between existence and use. There are three versions of this duality – something is built and users come, something is built and users don’t come, and, finally, potential users show up but the ballpark has not yet been built. In...

Transboundary river floods : vulnerability of continents, international river basins and countries

Creator:: Bakker, Marloes H. N.
Abstract:: Floods are the most frequent and damaging of all types of natural disasters and annually affect the lives of millions all over the globe. However, researchers seem to have overlooked the fact that floods do not recognize national boundaries. Therefore, the phenomena of shared, or transboundary floods occurring in international...

The Tlegetlinten Site (35CU59) and its place in southwest Oregon prehistory

Creator:: Tisdale, Lucille
Abstract:: Archaeological research in the lower Rogue River Basin between Galice Creek on the middle Rogue River and Gold Beach at the mouth of the Rogue has been minimal. Tlegetlinten (35CU59), a site located at the confluence of the Rogue and Illinois rivers is one of only three sites that have...

The development and application of benthic classifications for coral reef ecosystems below 30 m depth using multibeam bathymetry : Tutuila, American Samoa

Creator:: Lundblad, Emily Ruth
Abstract:: Coral reef ecosystems are the most diverse on earth, and their subsistence is being threatened by natural and adverse anthropogenic patterns and processes. In an effort to understand and protect these marine environments, several programs have outlined strategies and initiatives. For example, the United States Coral Reef Task Force’s Mapping...

The evolution of agricultural resource use strategies in the Willamette Valley

Creator:: Blok, Jack H.
Abstract:: Agriculture in the Willamette Valley, Oregon, has undergone continual change since the annual migrations of American pioneer farmers began to arrive in the early 1840's. The comparisons of data from each of the agricultural censuses of Oregon counties taken since 1850 confirms that change has been continual. The data revealed...

Food deserts in the Willamette : a study of food access in Lane County, Oregon

Creator:: Smith, Dianna Marie
Abstract:: According to USDA research, Oregon in 2002 had the highest rate of hunger and one of the highest rates of food insecurity in the United States. Although the margin of error involved with these statistics indicates that the state may not actually be at the top of the list, a...
