Soils representative of several landscape units in the H. J.
Andrews Experimental Forest, Western Cascade Range, were sampled,
analyzed, and tentatively classified. Genetic inferences were
drawn relating soils to landscape position and other factors of soil
formation. Descriptive information and nutrient capital data were
provided to support ecosystem modelling efforts...
Modern agricultural erosion was studied using ¹³⁷Cs from
fallout as an indicator of erosion/deposition. The study area was a
285 ha agricultural watershed in the hilly western margin of the
Willamette Valley, a high winter rainfall zone in which fall-planted
