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...

An evaluation of the Earth Resources Technology Satellite (ERTS-1) multispectral scanner as a tool for the determination of lacustrine trophic state

Creator:: Boland, Dale H. P.
Abstract:: This study evaluates the Earth Resources Technology Satellite- One (ERTS-1) multispectral scanner (MSS) as a means of predicting lacustrine trophic state and the magnitude of selected trophic state indicators. Numerical classificatory methods are employed to ascertain the trophic character of 100 lakes in Minnesota, Wisconsin, Michigan, and New York using...

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...

Historical landscape reconstruction and perceptual geography of Mount Hood, Oregon

Creator:: Belgam, Daniel R.
Abstract:: This research seeks to understand the influences of perception on land use around the Mount Hood area of Oregon and evaluate how it has evolved over the past 4,000 years. The study addresses three specific questions: 1) How has the study area evolved over time into the modern landscape? 2)...

Oregon's early peoples and their relation to the environment : an interpretive approach

Creator:: Possiel, William John
Abstract:: The dramatic upsurge of contract-supported archaeological activity, generated by legislative action, has precipitated an increase in information about Oregon's prehistoric peoples. This information, however, has not been presented in a format which can be easily understood by the general public. This study presents an account of early peoples in Oregon,...

The problems and issues of implementing Oregon's minimum stream flow program

Creator:: Stafford, Bret William
Abstract:: Oregon's minimum stream flow program attempts to preserve adequate flows of water for the instream needs of aquatic life and pollution abatement. Conflicts with consumptive uses of water have indicated that improvements are needed in the program. The conflicts are explored and specific improvements suggested.

An assessment of potential impacts from the proposed State Street (Salem, Oregon) widening project on biotic resources

Creator:: Bucy, David Edward Morelock
Abstract:: The proposed widening of State Street between Lancaster Avenue and 25th Street in Salem, Oregon was evaluated regarding potential construction impacts on the biotic resources (vegetation, fish, wildlife, and wetlands) in the immediate area. The existing setting was surveyed to establish a base level from which to measure changes, arid...

Origin of the Tucannon phase in Lower Snake River prehistory

Creator:: Lucas, Steven W.
Abstract:: Approximately 5,500 years ago a discreet period of wetter and cooler environmental conditions prevailed across the southern Columbia Plateau. This period was marked by the first prominent episodes of erosion to occur along the lower Snake River following the height of the Altithermal and eruption of Mt. Mazama during the...

Patterns of water resource decision-making: minimum stream flows in the Willamette Basin

Creator:: Griffith, Glenn Edwin
Abstract:: Oregon's minimum stream flow program is intended to protect certain instream flow values by maintaining sufficient stream flows to support aquatic life and to minimize pollution. The increasing demand for consumptive uses of water, as well as certain deficiencies in the laws, policies, and administration of the program, bring into...
