Solutions to Water Resource and Environmental Challenges : Perspectives from the Agricultural Community in the Crooked River Watershed

Creator:: Busick, Brytann
Abstract:: This research explores how an agriculture-based community in the Crooked River Watershed of Central Oregon responds to a series of water resource and environmental challenges, some associated with projected climate change, amid increasing pressure to change management practices to better accommodate environmental needs. A key part of this research assesses...

Water intake structures as movement barriers for larval coastal giant salamanders (Dicamptodon tenebrosus)

Creator:: Eaton, Jordan E.
Abstract:: Dams, culverts, and water intake structures can impact the movement of aquatic and semi-aquatic species within streams and rivers. Datagaps exist regarding the impact of water intake structures on larval coastal giant salamanders (Dicamptodon tenebrosus) as these obstructions may produce a barrier to up and downstream movement. The Rock Creek...

Cool hideaways: use of temperature refuges by juvenile coho salmon in the West Fork Smith River

Creator:: Raskauskas, Nancy
Abstract:: The West Fork Smith River, a 69 km2 watershed in the Coast Range of Oregon, is prone to short periods of very high water temperature in mid-summer due to a combination of human and natural influences. In the summers of 2003 and 2004 more than 400 juvenile coho salmon regularly...

Effects of wildfire on soil hydraulic properties on hillslopes in southwestern Oregon

Creator:: Cole, Ryan
Abstract:: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of wildfire on soil hydraulic properties of forested hillslopes. The study site was located within the Stouts Creek wildfire, which burned approximately 10,705 ha of forest in southwestern Oregon in summer 2015. Three soil hydraulic properties (soil moisture, unsaturated hydraulic...

Tradeoffs and Preferences between Flood Mitigation Measures

Creator:: Byron, Elizabeth G.
Abstract:: Floods remain the world’s most destructive natural hazard, despite centuries of efforts to minimize losses. Understanding public preferences for flood mitigation measures, and the impacts of these measures, is key to minimizing flood-induced losses. This study quantified tradeoffs between flood mitigation measures and determined factors that influence public preferences for...

Streambed scour and redeposition behavior in streambed simulated culverts over an annual period

Creator:: Stewart, Anna
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to provide first order observations of bed level changes occurring in streambed simulated culverts throughout an annual period. To accomplish this, 30 culvert sites were selected in Oregon and Washington, and monitored over, at least, a 2 year period. Streambed scour and redeposition data...

Occurrence of beaver (Castor canadensis) in volcanically disturbed lentic habitat

Creator:: Smith, Sierra L.
Abstract:: This study investigates the occurrence of beaver (Castor canadensis) in lentic habitat (lakes and ponds) near Mount St. Helens in Washington, 40 years after the 1980 eruption. At the coarse spatial scale, I surveyed lakes for sign of beaver establishment (lodge or den) across multiple volcanic disturbance zones. At a...

Comparing the United States West Coast Marine Protected Area levels of protection and their effectiveness to retain viable habitat connectivity with increasing human uses and global change

Creator:: Kesling, Joshua
Abstract:: Coastal communities rely on the abundant ecosystem services derived from robust conservation areas in offshore marine waters (Campbell, 2019). United Nations member states support the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) framework, wherein the 14th guideline asserts the importance of life under water. Protected marine environments are critical to the survival of...
