Historical Change and the Hydrogeomorphic Context of Present-day Floodplain Forests in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Bervid, Heather D.
Abstract:: Floodplain forests play many important roles in the fluvial processes and environments of large alluvial rivers, including acting as geomorphological influences and habitat for native fish during high flows. Many large, gravel-bed river systems have undergone substantial change in recent centuries, resulting in loss of forested area to agriculture, reduction...

An evaluation of the potential for land use management as an air pollution control measure within the Willamette Valley

Creator:: Vinton, Larry Richard
Abstract:: The rapid population growth and related economic growth of the Willamette Valley has resulted in a significant reduction in air quality over the past several decades. Within the Willamette Valley air ventilation is very poor and therefore the airpo1lutton potential is one of the highest in the United States. There...

A geographic application project utilizing location-allocation computer programs to determine canning facility locations in the Willamette Valley

Creator:: Maddocks, Nicholas Anthony
Abstract:: A Willamette Valley farm cooperative was interested in evaluating locations for their canning facilities based on the criterion of minimizing aggregate distance to their contract farms. This location problem presented an excellent opportunity for a geographic application project as it was characterized by one, a spatial distribution of farms and...

Small mammal assemblages in natural and restored wet prairies: an evaluation of habitat in Oregon's Willamette Valley

Creator:: Slane, Lori B.
Abstract:: This study was conducted to explore differences in diversity and abundance of small mammal populations in natural and restored wet prairies in Oregon's Willamette Valley. Mammals were live-trapped in eight Willamette Valley wet prairies (four natural remnants and four restorations) during the summer of 2000; population abundance estimates for each...

Development of a GIS for the Marys River Watershed for fish and wildlife analysis

Creator:: Callahan, Brady
Abstract:: GIS technology has reached a point where it can be utilized by nonprofessionals in a desktop environment. This paper reviews the implementation of a pilot project for developing a localized-natural resource GIS. The resulting GIS was custom designed to answer questions posed by fish and wildlife biologists who need to...

One-dimensional numerical model test and predictions for the Siuslaw Estuary

Creator:: Farreras, Salvador F.
Abstract:: The one-dimensional numerical model developed by Carl R. Goodwin is applied to the Siuslaw estuary. Vertical displacement, horizontal velocity and flow of the water as a function of time and distance from the mouth given by the model are compared with field observations taken under different water mixing conditions in...

Influences of landslides, floods and land use on channel changes of the upper Middle Fork Willamette River, Oregon 1936-1980

Creator:: Lyons, Joseph Kevin
Abstract:: Time trends in flow and channel characteristics were evaluated for the Middle Fork Willamette (MFW) River, which drains a 668 km2 forested watershed in the Cascade Mountains of western Oregon. Timber production is the primary land use in the watershed. Analysis of precipitation and peak flow data from 1959 to...

Geology, flooding & human activities : establishing a hierarchy of influence for controls on historic channel change, Willamette River, Oregon

Creator:: Wallick, Jennifer Rose
Abstract:: Channel evolution and influences of changing floodplain characteristics, heterogenous bank materials, and altered flow regimes were examined along the Willamette River, a large alluvial river in northwestern Oregon. The Willamette River is composed of a series of geomorphically diverse reaches, which have each evolved uniquely in the century following Euro-American...
