Influences of tillage system, climate, and soils on the demand for topsoil in northcentral Oregon wheat production

Creator:: Hanrahan, Michael S.
Abstract:: Soil erosion research in the fields of agronomy, soils science and mechanics, agricultural engineering, hydrology, climatology, and other scientific disciplines has economic dimensions. In general, measurable and, at times, significant economic effects are associated with the effects of erosion in the other disciplines. Interactions between climate, soils, hydrology, and tillage...

Who's in place, who's out of place : examining the politics of natural resource collaboration

Creator:: Cheng, Antony S.
Abstract:: A qualitative research approach composed of three strategies was employed to systematically examine the politics of natural resource collaboration. First, using the Oregon Plan for Salmon and Watersheds as a case study, the behavioral assumptions of natural resource policy instruments enabling collaboration were uncovered and analyzed. Three key assumptions emerge:...

Consumer attitudes toward potentially restrictive energy conservation regulations

Creator:: Merfeld, Michele Kay
Abstract:: A sample of 893 Oregon individuals from a Western Regional Agricultural Experiment Station Project (W-159 "Consequences of Energy Conservation Policies for Western Region Households") was used to analyze consumer attitudes toward potentially restrictive energy conservation regulations. Belief in the seriousness of the energy problem, a psychological measure of internal control...

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,...

Areal distribution, change, and restoration potential of wetlands within the lower Columbia River riparian zone, 1948-1991

Creator:: Allen, Tracy Hunter
Abstract:: The lower Columbia River (LCR) riparian zone is rich in habitat diversity. However, the natural beauty and species diversity along the river have increasingly become affected by human activity. This study quantifies the areal extent and degree of wetlands change and associated causes along the LCR over the past 44...

Insect community composition and physico-chemical processes in summer-dry streams of Western Oregon

Creator:: Dieterich, Martin
Abstract:: Seven streams, one of them permanent, were studied in western Oregon, USA. The research was designed to assess the value of summer-dry headwaters for conservation oriented landscape management. Streams were categorized primarily according to exposure (forest versus meadow sites) and secondarily according to flow duration (ephemeral = short-flow versus temporary...

A choice experiment analysis of public preferences for conservation of biological diversity in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Garber-Yonts, Brian E.
Abstract:: Ecosystem management has become an increasingly mainstream paradigm for natural resource management. Nowhere is this more evident than on the public and private forestland of the Pacific Northwest. While ecosystem management has become a widely accepted principle of resource management, substantial questions remain about its implementation. A case in point...

Watershed councils and woodland owners : the Oregon experience

Creator:: Rickenbach, Mark G., 1968-
Abstract:: Oregon's watershed councils are local, non-regulatory, collaborative forums charged with the recovery of endangered salmon and improving water quality under The Oregon Plan for Salmon and Watersheds. Private forest landowners, given their prominence is owning riparian areas, are central to success of these efforts. Using a statewide survey of watershed...
