A spatially explicit model for allocating conservation efforts : the Grand Ronde River basin, Oregon

Creator:: Watanabe, Michio
Abstract:: The spatial and dynamic pattern of landscape changes has a profound effect on the supply of environmental services, including the provision of habitat for fish and wildlife. Spatial heterogeneity is a common feature of landscapes in the Pacific Northwest, most notably in areas important to the production of salmonid fish...

Using a heuristic programming method for incorporating wildlife habitat constraints into spatial harvest scheduling on the Elliott State Forest

Creator:: Lennette, Marie
Abstract:: The Elliott State Forest, located in the Coast Range of Oregon, is currently revising their Habitat Conservation Plan (HCP). Many of the constraints in the HCP are spatial, requiring identification of specific parcels in order to limit activity along habitat reserves, limit harvest opening size, and to coordinate activities within...

Evaluating Coastal Protection Services Associated with Restoration Management of an Endangered Shorebird in Oregon, U.S.A.

Creator:: Carroll, Lindsay J.
Abstract:: Coastal sand dunes and beaches offer a variety of ecosystem services such as coastal protection, sand stabilization, species conservation, and recreation. However, the management and balance of ecosystem services offered by dunes and beaches is challenging when ecosystem services interact across the landscape. Management focusing only on one ecosystem service...

Keying forest stream protection to aquatic ecosystem values in multi-ownership watersheds

Creator:: Pickard, Brian R.
Abstract:: Forested lands of western Oregon provide aquatic habitat for many fish and riparian dependent species, including a wide variety of salmon species. Current policies set riparian protections using fixed buffers on streams for federal and private lands based on stream type or size. These buffers can create a series of...

Using a species-centered approach to examine patterns and drivers of avian species richness in the Rogue Basin, Oregon, A 'bird's eye view' : using a species-centered approach to examine patterns and drivers of avian species richness in the Rogue Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Halstead, Katherine E.
Abstract:: The combined effects of habitat loss, degradation, and fragmentation pose a serious threat to Earth's biodiversity, imperiling even relatively common species. 'Habitat' is necessarily a species-specific concept, and investigations of bird diversity relationships and subsequent efforts to prioritize conservation areas, are challenged by the difficulty of estimating complex habitat gradients...

Oregon's Conservation Reserve Enhancement Program : likely participation and recommendations for implementation

Creator:: Kingsbury, Leigh
Abstract:: This study used contingent valuation techniques to model the probability of participation in Oregon's CREP as a function of the incentive payment and a vector of socio-economic variables. Possible reasons for non-participation were evaluated and landowner preferences for various program components were assessed. Recommendations for program improvement and implementation were...

Distribution, habitat associations, and conservation status of Pacific fisher (Pekania pennanti) in Oregon.

Creator:: Barry, Brent R.
Abstract:: Fishers (Pekania pennanti) are medium sized mustelids endemic to North America. Two fisher populations persist in Oregon: an indigenous population in southwestern Oregon, and a reintroduced population in the southern Cascade Mountains. Despite candidacy for listing under the Endangered Species Act, current information on fisher populations in Oregon is scarce....

Conserving avian diversity in agricultural systems : the role of isolated Oregon white oak legacy trees

Creator:: DeMars, Craig A.
Abstract:: Over one third of the earth’s land surface has been modified to some extent for agricultural purposes. The large global footprint of agriculture, combined with the knowledge that existing reserve networks are likely insufficient for long-term conservation of native biodiversity, has necessitated that agricultural systems contribute to conservation of native...

Response of juvenile steelhead trout to an instream habitat rehabilitation project in Meadow Creek, Oregon

Creator:: Miller, Alan Christopher
Abstract:: Responses of juvenile steelhead trout to changes in stream habitat resulting from an instream habitat rehabilitation project in Meadow Creek, Oregon were measured from 1991 through 1992 and compared to pre-treatment data from 1987 through 1990. Sixty nine pool-forming, and 59 channel-stabilizing log structures were constructed by the U.S. Forest...
