Grazing impacts on bacterial water quality Alsea Ranger District, 1981

Creator:: Peterson, Stacia L.
Abstract:: During the 1981 grazing season four sets offecal coliform (FC) concentration data were collected from streams on sheep grazed clear cut units on the Alsea Ranger District of the Siuslaw National Forest. The objective of the study was to access bacterial water quality impacts from sheep grazing. Sample sites were...

Improving instream flow protection in the West : an evaluation of strategies with an analysis of Oregon's program

Creator:: Root, Ann L.
Abstract:: In the American West keeping water instream to protect fish and wildlife, recreation, and water quality is in direct conflict with traditional water laws. While most western states have established instream flow protection programs, protection has been hindered by the basic tenet of the prior appropriation doctrine, first in time,...

Changes in floodplain occupance Portland, Oregon 1957-1986

Creator:: Chaney, Richard Earl
Abstract:: Portland, Oregon Is in the northern end of the Willamette River Basin and Valley. The Willamette River caries the runoff discharge from approximately 12,000 square miles of basin area, and flows northward where it bisects the Portland metropolitan area and enters the confluence with the Columbia River. However, high discharge...

Housing growth and provision of domestic water supply in North Albany, Oregon: 1966-1975

Creator:: Benson, Elizabeth A.
Abstract:: The objectives of this research paper are (1) to establish if a relationship exists between those water-related services - domestic water and waste disposal - already present in the North Albany are a prior to 1966 and housing growth that occurred during the period 1966-1975, (2) to assess the impact...

Geographic Information System (GIS) resource inventories: the Marys River Project

Creator:: Chapman, Shannen S.
Abstract:: The Greenbelt Land Trust (GLT) (a grass-roots conservation group in Oregon) is interested in a conservation plan for the Marys River Corridor. To facilitate this effort, a resource inventory was required and a Geographic Information System (GIS) data base used to compile the inventory (called the Marys River Project (MRP))....

Monitoring individual particle transport in a gravel bedded stream using a passive radio transponder system, Corvallis, Oregon

Creator:: Childers, Elayne S.
Abstract:: Gathering empirical data on the factors and processes affecting bedload transport in the field is difficult. This project conducted during the winter of 1996 field tested a new passive method of positively tracking individual particle movement. The project was conducted in Oak Creek, a gravel bedded stream, located in Corvallis,...

Using a Geographic Information System to identify and reduce uncertainty in hydroelectric-site inventories

Creator:: Ellison, Bradley A.
Abstract:: Power planning efforts in Oregon require accurate information about hydroelectric potential. Potential uses for Geographic Information Systems (GISs) are being investigated by three Oregon planning agencies. This paper presents a method in which a 616 is used to help identify and reduce uncertainty in previous hydroelectric inventories. Uncertainty with respect...

Nitrogen and chlorophyll relations to low altitude photographed reflectance of perennial ryegrass

Creator:: Kreinheder, David P.
Abstract:: This study was conducted to test a photographic method of determining the relationship, if any, between the spectral reflectance and measured levels of nitrogen and chlorophyll in plots of ryegrass turf. Color and color infrared aerial photos were taken of a grid of 375 plots of ryegrass in June and...

Causes and sources of water quality impairment in the Upper Chehalis River, Washington

Creator:: Harper, A. Craig
Abstract:: Water quality problems have been identified in the Chehalis River in the vicinity of Centralia and Chehalis since the 1960's. In 1992, the Washington State Department of Ecology listed four Chehalis River segments, three segments of the Newaukum River, two segments of the Wynoochee River, and three other tributaries -...
