Spatial patterns of invasion by exotic plants in a forested landscape

Creator:: Parendes, Laurie Anne, 1958-
Abstract:: Few landscapes are immune to invasion by exotic plant species. The forested landscape in the western Cascade Range of Oregon appears to have some barriers to invasion, but the extensive road network provides a corridor and habitat for a suite of exotic species to enter and become established. This study...

The influence of geology and timber harvest on channel morphology and salmonid populations in Oregon coast range streams

Creator:: Hicks, Brendan J.
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Cumulative effects of land use on salmon habitat in southwest Oregon coastal streams

Creator:: Frissell, Christopher Andrew, 1960-
Abstract:: As part of a hierarchical approach to classifying watersheds and stream habitats based on geomorphic and geologic criteria, we defined ten classes of fluvial and lacustrine habitats at the scale of valley segments. Valley segments are landscape units which encompass surface waters and the adjacent floodplains and hillslopes with which...

Spatial and temporal dynamics of sediment and wood in headwater streams in the central Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: May, Christine L.
Abstract:: Channels that were scoured to bedrock by debris flows provided unique opportunities to calculate the rate of sediment and wood accumulation, to make inferences about processes associated with input and transport of sediment, and to gain insight into the temporal succession of channel morphology following disturbance. In an intensive investigation...

Modeling climate, vegetation, and water balance at landscape to regional scales

Creator:: Daly, Christopher
Abstract:: The general objective of this study was to develop models and datasets that would significantly advance our ability to assess the current and future effects of global change on the biosphere. The focus was in two areas: (1) preparing environmental datasets at regional to small watershed scales; and (2) developing...

Relationships among juvenile anadromous salmonids, their freshwater habitat, and landscape characteristics over multiple years and spatial scales in the Elk River, Oregon

Creator:: Burnett, Kelly M.
Abstract:: Research on the distribution of juvenile salmonids in streams has been dominated by studies examining small areas over short periods. However, information relevant to freshwater influences on population persistence is likely to derive from longer-term, multi-scale studies. Relationships were examined among juvenile anadromous salmonids, their freshwater habitat, and landscape characteristics...

Songbird communities in burned and logged stands with variable tree retention in the Canadian Rocky Mountains

Creator:: Stuart-Smith, A. Kari
Abstract:: By emulating natural disturbances such as wildfire, managers hope to maintain biodiversity in managed forests. Leaving residual (live) trees in harvested areas is key to this strategy. However, the effectiveness of this approach is unknown. I surveyed songbirds in 176 stands in the Rocky Mountains of southeastern British Columbia, Canada,...

Spatial and temporal patterns of windthrow in the Bull Run Watershed, Oregon

Creator:: Sinton, Diana Stuart
Abstract:: Throughout the 20th century, windthrow has affected forests in the Bull Run watershed, a 26,500 ha basin that is the principal water source for the city of Portland, Oregon. Windthrow from storms in 1973 and 1983 was mapped into a geographic information system (GIS) and compared to a 1931 windthrow...

Stream channel response to peak flows in a fifth-order mountain watershed

Creator:: Faustini, John M.
Abstract:: This investigation explored how the magnitude, style, and frequency of channel adjustments vary spatially and over time within a 5th-order mountain watershed. Historical data sets, including repeated cross section surveys spanning up to 20 years at five sites on 2nd to 5th-order channels and streamflow records spanning up to 50...
