Estimating large woody debris recruitment from adjacent riparian areas

Creator:: Minor, Kathleen P.
Abstract:: Large woody debris recruitment to streams from adjacent riparian forests influences stream channel morphology, sediment routing, and fish habitat. A mathematical model was developed to 1) determine whether the trees in a stand adjacent to a stream, upon falling, would provide large woody debris of a specified size to the...

Wildlife habitats in managed rangelands : the Great Basin of southeastern Oregon

Creator:: Hall, Frederick C.
Abstract:: Management practices and options to provide habitat for wildlife in the Great Basin of southeastern Oregon deal with both vegetation treatment and protection, livestock management, maintenance or distribution of water developments, protection of wildlife areas through road closures or fencing, and direct manipulation of wildlife through hunting, trapping, or other...

Small mammal micro- and macrohabitat selection in streamside ecosystems

Creator:: Doyle, Arlene T.
Abstract:: During summer and fall of 1981 to 1983, mark-recapture was conducted in riparian and upland habitats within old-growth and mature forests in the Cascade Range of Oregon. Number of individuals and species richness were greater in riparian than upland habitat. For most species, the mean adult weights and the percentages...

The response of soils, streambanks and instream coliform bacteria levels to grazing management in a riparian area

Creator:: Bohn, Carolyn C.
Abstract:: This thesis describes a case study of the effects of five systems of grazing on watershed values in a deteriorated riparian area. Soil infiltration, bulk density and penetrability, streambank edge movement and coliform bacteria were monitored for seven years along a stream in the Blue Mountains of northeastern Oregon. For...

Ecology of aquatic habitats associated with stream margins

Creator:: Moore, Kelly M. S.
Abstract:: The morphology and ecological importance of habitats associated with the margin of third-order stream channels in the Oregon Cascades were studied in streams in three different riparian types: 450-year-old conifers, 40-year-old alder, and an open, herbaceous-dominated clearcut. Margins, backwaters, and side channels in streams create important habitat for fry of...

Ecology of the Salix and Populus species of the Crooked River National Grassland

Creator:: Busse, Kathryn Grace
Abstract:: Riparian communities dominated by members of the Salicaceae (Salix lasiandra, S. lutea, S. lemmonii, Populus trichocarpa, P. tremuloides and S. exiqua) were studied at the Crooked River National Grassland in central Oregon. The objectives of this study were to examine the relationships between the Salix and Populus species and microsite...

Modeling riparian zone processes : biomass production and grazing

Creator:: Korpela, Edwin J.
Abstract:: Seasonal trends in forage production and environmental parameters for five plant community types within a northeastern Oregon riparian zone were described and modeled using correlation and path analysis. Wet meadows produced the greatest amount of herbage biomass, followed by moist bluegrass meadows, gravel bars, forests and dry bluegrass meadows. Trends...

Soil conditions along a hydrologic gradient and successional dynamics in a grazed and ungrazed montane riparian ecosystem

Small-mammal herpetofauna abundance in riparian and upslope areas of five forest conditions

Creator:: Gomez, Douglas M.
Abstract:: I compared species composition and relative abundance of'small mammals and herpetofauna between riparian and upslope habitats among 5 forest types. Riparian- and upslope- associated species were identified based on capture frequency. Small mammal species richness was similar between stream and upslope habitats and among the 5 forest types. There were...

Breeding bird community composition in relation to riparian vegetation structure in grazed habitats

Creator:: Sanders, Todd Alan
Abstract:: Riparian zones provide habitat for breeding birds in the semiarid western United States; however, there are few data available that address the effects of livestock grazing strategies on riparian habitats and avian communities. Documenting avian community composition in different riparian vegetation communities and relating vegetation communities to livestock grazing strategies...
