Response of terrestrial vertebrates to three silvicultural treatments in the Central Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Chambers, Carol Louise, 1958-
Abstract:: Growing concerns over maintaining animal and plant biodiversity have led to significant changes in forest management policies in the Pacific Northwest. Silvicultural alternatives to clear cutting are being suggested to promote development, retention, or creation of late-successional features such as large trees, multilayered canopies, snags and logs. As alternative management...

The effects of forage improvement practices on Roosevelt elk in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Stussy, Rosemary J.
Abstract:: Forage availability, diets, distribution, and productivity were compared for Roosevelt elk, Cervus elaphus roosevelti, using improved (i.e. seeded, fertilized, and grazed) and untreated areas of the Oregon Coast Range. Seasonal forage availability was substantially different on 1-year-old improved and untreated clearcuts, but the differences diminished by clearcut age 4 and...

Selection of day roosts by female long-legged myotis (Myotis volans) in forests of the central Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Ormsbee, Patricia
Abstract:: Measuring habitat selection by bats is complicated by their intricate life cycle. Scaling habitat measurements to reflect a hierarchal habitat selection process can help to define habitat associations of bats. I assessed day roost habitat of female long-legged myotis at four scales: the roost structure, micro-habitat surrounding the roost, the...

Movements and habitat asociations of northern flying squirrels in the Central Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Martin, Karl J.
Abstract:: We used radio-telemetry techniques to estimate home range size, movements, den sites, and habitat selection of 39 northern flying squirrels (Glaucomys sabrinus) in 2 old- and 2 second-growth stands in the central Oregon Cascades. Sampling periods were at night during summer and fall of 1991-92. Home ranges were smaller for...

Short-tailed weasel space use in managed forests of western Oregon

Creator:: Linnell, Mark A.
Abstract:: Although short-tailed weasels (Mustela erminea) are important predators of small mammals, little is known about their space use, habitat selection, or vulnerability to predation in North America. To evaluate the effects of forest management and social structure on home range size and habitat selection of short-tailed weasels, I conducted a...

Demography, home range, and habitat selection of northern spotted owls in the Ashland Watershed

Creator:: Schilling, Jason W.
Abstract:: Northern Spotted Owls (Strix occidentalis caurina) inhabit productive forests that historically supported frequent, large, variable-severity fires in the Klamath province of southwestern Oregon occur in complex. The potential for high-severity wildfire remains high throughout this region, so remaining spotted owl habitat is at risk. An adaptive management approach to fire...

Habitat classification and characteristics of small mammal and amphibian communities in beaver-pond habitats of the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Suzuki, Nobuya
Abstract:: During 1988-1989, stream habitat variables were compared between beaver-dam sites and unoccupied-stream sites to identify variables that may have been important for beaver (Castor canadensis) in selecting dam sites in the streams of the Drift Creek basin, Lincoln County, Oregon. Increasing valley floor width and grass/sedge cover and decreasing stream...

Habitat associations of woodpeckers at multiple scales in managed forests of the Southern Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Brett, Tiffany A.
Abstract:: I studied nest-site characteristics and habitat relationships for three species ofprimary cavity-nesting birds--hairy woodpecker (Picoides villosus), northern flicker (Colaptes auratus), and red-breasted sapsucker (Sphyrapicus ruber)-- over spatially heterogeneous landscapes in managed forests of the Southern Oregon Cascades during 1995 and 1996. The study was conducted on the Diamond Lake Ranger...

Small-mammal herpetofauna abundance in riparian and upslope areas of five forest conditions

Creator:: Gomez, Douglas M.
Abstract:: I compared species composition and relative abundance of'small mammals and herpetofauna between riparian and upslope habitats among 5 forest types. Riparian- and upslope- associated species were identified based on capture frequency. Small mammal species richness was similar between stream and upslope habitats and among the 5 forest types. There were...
