The use of motor carrier weigh station reports in commodity flow analysis of the Oregon forest products industry - 1976

Creator:: Howes, Edwin R.
Abstract:: Data on motor carrier commodity weights collected in 1976 at Oregon weigh stations by the Public Utilities Commission and the Department of Transportation are not in a form that readily allows for commodity flow analysis. A methodology is presented that reduces existing forest product commodity data into a graphically displayed...

Flow From Flexibility : Identifying Opportunities For Streamflow Restoration in a Transboundary Municipal Watershed Through Water Budgeting

Creator:: Pierson, Jessica S.
Abstract:: Municipal watersheds attempt to balance growing and conflicting demands for water for human use and for ecosystems. The Mill Creek basin, a 295 km2 basin in southeast Washington, exemplifies these conflicts. Since the late 1800s, the City of Walla Walla has withdrawn water from Mill Creek for municipal use. However,...

Mobility Push Factors: Modeling the Influences of Natural Disasters on Migration Flows and Adaptation Interventions on Coastal Housing Prices

Creator:: Rose, Stefan A.
Abstract:: Natural disasters are an increasingly costly and frequent occurrence globally and in the United States (IPCC, 2012; IPCC, 2014; Berlemann & Steinhardt, 2017). Discrete disaster events, such as coastal flooding, have been shown to be push factors in temporary and long-term migration (Black et al., 2013). Policy efforts to adapt...

The electrification of Mexico

Creator:: Gill, Andrew Douglas
Abstract:: This research paper is an analysis of the electric energy industry in Mexico since its inception in 1879. The research is based entirely on library sources plus documents secured from the Federal Electricity Commission of Mexico. Only minimal documentary evidence is available in English, consequently the Oregon State University library...

Watershed and climate influences on flood frequency distributions in the Willamette River basin

Creator:: Tolle, Timothy Victor
Abstract:: Problem areas identified are: The needs a) to develop curve fitting procedures to estimate flood flow distributions; b) to incorporate precipitation data into frequency analysis procedures; and c) to better define flood potentials for ungauged streams. Closely related to the above, it is noted that variables commonly used to estimate...

An analysis of conflict for the Columbia River salmon fishery

Creator:: Brown, Dennis E.
Abstract:: This paper is an analysis of the resource use conflict of the Columbia River salmon fishery. The report discusses the physical setting of the Columbia River, the biology of anadromous salmon, the history of the resource use, hazards to the salmon, fishing techniques, and salmon usage today with its conflicts,...

Bayocean Spit, Tillamook, Oregon; early economic development and erosion history

Creator:: Terich, Thomas
Abstract:: Bayocean sand spit lies along the northern Oregon coast approximately 70 miles south of the Columbia River. Work was begun on the construction of a large recreational resort on the spit in the early 1900's. At the outset, the resort appeared to have a promising future. However, a three-year delay...

A modified synoptic analysis of the status of Oregon's Willamette Valley wetlands

Creator:: Gabriel, John T.
Abstract:: Sound wetland management depends on an accurate comprehensive assessment of functional wetland values. This management should account for the cumulative impacts to regions and landscapes resulting from piecemeal destruction and degradation of wetland resources. A regional or watershed evaluation of wetland values can also make site-specific assessments more efficient. The...

A Methodology to directly input data from an uncontrolled aerial photograph into a vector based geographic information system

Creator:: Sneed, Jacquelin M.
Abstract:: Historically the U.S. Forest Service has used uncorrected aerial photographs to delineate proposed and past management activities on the land base it manages. Transferring a boundary from an image not planimetrically correct to a planimetrically corrected image introduces errors. Positional accuracy of boundaries affects the number of acres the Forest...

Cloudiness in the Willamette Valley of Oregon

Creator:: Heinsohn, Frank Peter
Abstract:: Temporal and spatial patterns of daytime cloudiness in the Willamette Valley of Oregon were studied by utilizing monthly and daily sky cover data published by the U. S. Weather Bureau for the Portland, Salem, and Eugene stations. The 15-year period, 1949 through 1963, was selected as the maximum reliable period...
