Creator:: Schultz, Emily S.
Abstract:: A large, damaging earthquake in 1944 on a blind thrust fault caused 60 cm of surface rupture on the subsidiary La Laja fault and additional unmeasured growth of an associated backlimb fold. Both the fold and fault are components of the La Laja Fault System (LLFS) located 25 km northeast...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: displacement (D. Ragona, pers. comm.). Close examination of the terraces in the vicinity of the La Laja fault

Creator:: Lewis, Logan L.
Abstract:: Rates of sediment transport were determined using tracer gravel and a RFID antenna array at Oak Creek (Oregon) to compare a new method with an existing transport relation created from data previously collected in the same study reach. Close to 3,000 tracers were deployed throughout the study reach and were...

Creator:: Edgell, Rebecca
Abstract:: Oregon’s foredunes are part of a dynamic coastal environment that constantly evolves in response to both ecological and physical forces. Invasive beachgrasses have outcompeted native dune grass in the region and have influenced the shape of Oregon’s foredunes via species-specific biophysical feedback mechanisms. As climate change induced sea-level rise will...

Creator:: Bervid, Heather D.
Abstract:: Floodplain forests play many important roles in the fluvial processes and environments of large alluvial rivers, including acting as geomorphological influences and habitat for native fish during high flows. Many large, gravel-bed river systems have undergone substantial change in recent centuries, resulting in loss of forested area to agriculture, reduction...

Creator:: Zunka, John P. P.
Abstract:: Bedrock meandering rivers are sinuous channels that pair steep bedrock outside banks with lower gradient slip-off slopes on the inside of bends. These rivers have the potential to record information on climatic and tectonic “external” forcings in their morphology (e.g., longitudinal profiles, strath terraces, channel and valley dimensions). However, geology...

Creator:: Marcott, Shaun Andrew
Abstract:: This dissertation presents results from three studies that address major scientific questions in glacial geology and paleoclimatology for the late Pleistocene and Holocene using relatively new geochemical and statistical techniques. Each of the studies attempts to answer a longstanding question in the respective field using geochemical or statistical methods that...
Resource Type:: Dissertation
Full Text:: oral and written exams. I also thank Desiree Tullos who served early on as my graduate

Creator:: Hempel, Laura A.
Abstract:: Numerous studies have explored how alluvial channel size and morphology are adjusted to different sediment and flow conditions, yet we still know very little about how and to what degree the flow regime controls channel form and processes. We use the term ‘channel form’ to refer to the size and...

Creator:: Stratton Garvin, Laurel E.
Abstract:: The relationship between carbon burial and sedimentation in reservoirs is unknown, exposing gaps in our fundamental understanding of the transport, processing, and deposition of sediment and organic matter in fluvial and lacustrine systems and contributing to uncertainty in our understanding of the net impact of dams to the global carbon...
