A biogeographical analysis of some relationships between man, land, and wildlife in Belize (British Honduras)

Creator:: Frost, Marvin D.
Abstract:: This thesis research consists of an investigation of the human influences on wildlife in Belize. The study was accomplished by the collection and analysis of data with respect to land use, habitat characteristics, and wildlife status in Belize. Requirements and status of many species are tabulated in order to give...

A framework for the determination of the suitability of undeveloped land in the intermountain west for use as cropland

Creator:: Rathburn, Arthur Cristen
Abstract:: The "Framework for Determining the Suitability of Undeveloped Land for Use as Cropland" is a decision-making format to assist private and governmental agency decision makers in categorizing undeveloped lands, which have been identified as having potential for conversion to cropland, as to their suitability for use as cropland. The Framework...

A method for remotely monitoring glaciers with regional application to the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Medley, Brooke
Abstract:: An integrative method for monitoring glacier geometry change and mass balance is presented and applied to the Pacific Northwest, USA. Acting as a baseline for interpretation of future changes in glacier size and shape, we first derive a new inventory of regional glacier cover using remotely sensed data. To investigate...

A Preliminary Archaeological Predictive Model for the US 30 Transportation Corridor, Portland, Oregon to Astoria, Oregon

Creator:: Kachadoorian, Lydia A.
Abstract:: This thesis is a preliminary archaeological predictive model and project-planning tool created for the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT) as part of a statewide planning effort to enhance the agency's ability to assess the potential impacts of highway projects on archaeological resources. This model addresses the archaeological sensitivity of the...

Advancements in the Monitoring of Forests and Quantification of Live Aboveground Biomass Using Moderate Resolution Spaceborne Multispectral Imagery and Synthetic Aperture Radar Data

Creator:: Kilbride, John B.
Abstract:: The objective of this dissertation is to enhance the monitoring of forest ecosystems through the utilization of remotely sensed data to address the exigencies posed by the Anthropocene. On a global scale, rising temperatures and fluctuating precipitation patterns have strained forests and produced shifts in natural disturbance regimes. Additionally, the...

Age structure, developmental pathways, and fire regime characterization of Douglas-fir/western hemlock forests in the central western Cascades of Oregon

Creator:: Tepley, Alan J.
Abstract:: Descriptions of the fire regime in the Douglas-fir/western hemlock region of the Pacific Northwest traditionally have emphasized infrequent, predominantly stand-replacement fires and an associated linear pathway of stand development, where all stands proceed along a common pathway until reset by the next fire. Although such a description may apply in...

An analysis of the effect of allowing dwelling units on small forest lots in two Oregon counties

Creator:: Brierley, Barton
Abstract:: The 1988 Oregon Supreme Court decision in 1000 Friends of Oregon v. LCDC (Lane Co.) made it very difficult to allow dwelling units in forest zones. Because of this the Oregon Land Conservation and Development Commission has been prompted to revise the state's forest goal in order to allow forest...

An analysis of two post-Mazama prehistoric flaked stone scatters in the upper Deschutes River basin of central Oregon

Creator:: McFarland, Janine Ruth
Abstract:: During the summer of 1986, an archaeological testing project was completed at seven prehistoric campsites primarily located in the upper Deschutes River Basin of central Oregon. Testing was focused on two low-density "lithic scatters", an archaelogical site type which is especially abundant in this obsidian-rich region but which, to date,...

An analysis of urban-suburban vs. rural voting on two land use issues in Clackamas County, Oregon

Creator:: Martin, Robert Craig
Abstract:: When land use issues are voted upon directly by the people, or by the legislators who represent them, the outcome often reveals a discrepancy based on population density. Urban-suburban areas tend to support regulation, while rural areas tend to oppose it. The residents of Clackamas County have voted on two...
