Comparative Characterization of Two Nearshore Rocky Reef Areas: A high-use recreational fishing reef vs. an unfished reef

Creator:: Fox, David, Merems, Arlene, Amend, Mark, Weeks, Hal, Romsos, Chris, and Appy, Marcus
Abstract:: This project has provided the ODFW Marine Habitat Project with a unique opportunity to make a comparative examination of the habitats and fish communities of a heavily fished reef off of Siletz Bay, and a nearly unfished reef off Cape Perpetua. There are over 17,000 angler trips for groundfish out...

Habitat restoration in the Columbia River Estuary : A strategy for implementing standard monitoring protocols

Creator:: Anderson, Michael G.
Abstract:: This project, to propose an implementation strategy for standard monitoring protocols, builds on my Pacific Northwest National Laboratory Fellowship to support a study entitled Evaluating Cumulative Ecosystem Response to Restoration Projects in the Columbia River Estuary (Diefenderfer et al. 2005). The major objective of the study was to develop a...

Monitoring Restoration in South Sister Creek : The Effect of Stream Enhancement Structures on Water Temperature

Creator:: Harewood, Alessandra Greer
Abstract:: This pilot study of South Sister Creek (8 km length) examined stream-scale (i.e., longitudinal trends) and sub-reach scale (less than 100 m) water temperature. Hourly summer temperature time-series data were gathered at four to seven locations along South Sister Creek in 2006, 2012, and 2013 and were used to explore...

Pasture renovation with herbicide suppression of weeds and no-till seeding of orchardgrass

Creator:: Fitzsimmons, James P.
Abstract:: No-till pasture renovation can increase the quality and forage yield of underproductive pastures. Decreased erosion, lower costs, and less lost grazing time are advantages of no-till renovation compared to conventional renovation. Unwanted vegetation is first controlled with herbicides to decrease competition for introduced orchardgrass. Two field trials were conducted using...

A Bayesian network for prioritizing restoration of aquatic connectivity

Creator:: Andersen, Eric J.
Abstract:: Re-establishing connectivity is a primary restoration activity for enhancing the recovery of migratory fishes, but actions are often limited by lack of funds and understanding of the benefits of individual projects. The objective of this study was to develop a Bayesian Network (BN) to assess priorities for restoration of aquatic...

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...

Evaluating "nuisance" beaver relocation as a tool to increase coho salmon habitat in the Alsea Basin of the central Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Petro, Vanessa M.
Abstract:: Many stakeholders involved with stream restoration in the Pacific Northwest have discussed the potential benefits of using beaver dam construction activities (Castor canadensis) as a management tool to improve degraded stream habitat for anadromous salmon species. In addition, there has been growing interest in using nuisance beavers, primarily controlled by...

Exploring the relationship between engineering design project characteristics and risk indicators

Creator:: Yim, Rachel L.
Abstract:: Engineering design projects are implemented to accomplish a variety of goals in organizations. As the complexity of each project grows, the risk and uncertainty accompanying each project increases as well. As a result project managers must identify potential risks to projects and create plans to avoid realized risks leading to...

An evaluation of the likelihood of successful implementation of the long term coral reef monitoring program on the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands

Creator:: Kylstra, Pam
Abstract:: Coral reef ecosystems are the oceanic equivalent of tropical rainforests, in terms of biodiversity. The estimated 1,037,000 square kilometers worldwide of reef provide habitat for over one million species of plants and animals (Hinrichsen, 1997). Coral reefs are important to the economy of coastal nations because of the fisheries and...
