Empirical modeling of windthrow occurrence in streamside buffer strips

Creator:

Drake, Timothy P.

Abstract:

Streamside buffer strips provide numerous benefits to stream ecosystems. The buffer strips create shade, provide shelter for wildlife, act as barriers to logging debris during and after timber harvest, and serve as a continued source of large woody debris. Quantifying woody inputs resulting from windthrow provides managers with estimates for...

Masters Thesis
Terrestrial amphibian distribution, habitat associations and downed wood temperature profiles in managed headwater forests with riparian buffers in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:

Kluber, Matthew R.

Abstract:

Western forests have become increasingly fragmented landscapes dominated by young stands. Given that western Oregon forests largely consist of headwater systems, there is a need to better understand how headwater forest taxa and their habitats are impacted by forest management practices. Several amphibian species associated with forested headwater systems have...

Masters Thesis
Examining effectiveness of Oregon’s forest practice rules for maintaining warm-season maximum stream temperature patterns in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:

Fleuret, Jennifer Marie

Abstract:

Stream temperature, as an important component of stream ecosystems, can be affected by forest harvesting through removal of riparian shade and changes in hydrology. Riparian Management Areas (RMAs), as implemented through the current Oregon Forest Practice Rules, are designed, in part, to maintain stream temperature following forest harvesting. However, effectiveness...
