Relationship between allometric variables and biomass in western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis)

Creator:: Sabin, Breanna S.
Abstract:: A tenfold expansion of western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis spp. occidentalis) into the sagebrush steppe has led to the degradation of the economic and ecological potential of these landscapes. Land managers have enacted numerous methods to reduce distributions and densities of these trees. Assessment of above ground juniper biomass, expressed overall...

Analysis of hydrology and erosion in small, paired watersheds in a juniper-sagebrush area of central Oregon

Creator:: Fisher, Michael, (Michael Patrick), 1966-
Abstract:: Current research indicates that the expansion of western juniper can inhibit soil water retention, storage and prolonged releases from watersheds. This phenomenon is of great importance in eastern Oregon, as western juniper is encroaching into sagebrush/grass communities with a correlated reduction in herbaceous ground cover, resulting in reduced infiltration rates...

Long-term Ecohydrologic Response to Western Juniper (Juniperus occidentalis) Control in Semiarid Watersheds of Central Oregon : A Paired Watershed Study

Creator:: Ray, Grace L.
Abstract:: Rangelands span over 50% of the globe and approximately 70% of the United States. Although livestock production is an important use of rangelands, the benefits of rangelands are highly diverse. Humans find intrinsic value in protecting these unique and variable landscapes for wildlife, vegetation, and recreation enthusiasts. Woodland plant encroachment...

Vegetation and soil response to tree removal methods in invasive western juniper woodlands

Creator:: O'Connor, Casey A.
Abstract:: On piñon-juniper encroached sites that lack the understory fuels to carry a prescribed fire, treatment options are limited to mechanical methods. Cutting with chainsaws and leaving the trees on site has been the primary treatment method for such sites, however this method creates a potential fire hazard, particularly in the...

Spatial and age class analysis of managed western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis) woodlands in central Oregon

Creator:: Zophy, Kelley T.
Abstract:: Juniper is a native species to Oregon and confers ecological benefits to wildlife when it is at savannah and transitional densities. Its range and extent have fluctuated with climatic change, but the current range expansion is unprecedented in its extent. The range expansion has been associated with the degradation of...

The economics of western juniper management on ranches located in the John Day Ecological Province of north-central Oregon

Creator:: Aldrich, Gwendolyn A.
Abstract:: Western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis Hook) is a species of juniper native to arid regions of the Pacific Northwest. The western juniper tree has a number of competitive strategies that, in conjunction with an almost complete removal of fire from the ecosystem, have resulted in a significant expansion of its population...

Watershed response to western juniper control

Creator:: Deboodt, Timothy L.
Abstract:: Western juniper (Juniperus occidentalis) encroachment has been associated with increased soil loss and reduced infiltration resulting in the loss of native herbaceous plant communities and the bird and animal species that rely on them. Hydrologically, however, change in water yield has been linked with the amount of annual precipitation a...

Vegetation and Small Mammal Responses to Western Juniper (Juniperus occidentalis) Control in Eastern Oregon

Creator:: Morozumi, Corinne N.
Abstract:: Shrub-steppe ecosystems of western North America provide habitat for many wildlife species, are important components of public and private rangelands, and offer recreational opportunities for millions of people. They are some of the most vulnerable ecosystems in the United States and have been altered by human activities such as livestock...
