An examination of several methods of quantifying forest structure in headwater riparian forests of western Oregon

Creator:: Haxton, Zane A.
Abstract:: Headwater streams are generally small, first-order streams that can comprise up to 80% (by stream length) of the drainage network in mountainous areas of the Pacific Northwest. These streams are intimately connected with downstream reaches, serving as a source of sediment, woody debris, organic matter and nutrients. The surrounding forests...

Northwest of normal

Creator:: Larison, John J.
Abstract:: Northwest of Normal is the first part of a novel that takes place along an imaginary Oregon river called the Ipsyniho. The story grows from valley’s fertile loam like a blackberry vine, entangling a group of locals—fly fishing guides and midwives, artists and dope growers—just as a posse of wealthy...

Artificial means of distinguishing smooth-line map unit boundaries : an examination of Oregon soil survey maps

Creator:: Sun, Yulin
Abstract:: Soil is a complex living system with high heterogeneity, which makes locating soil map boundaries a challenge. In traditional soil survey, the placement of soil map boundaries relies largely (at least initially) on identifying the soil-forming factors of biota and topographic relief through stereo aerial photo pairs. Future soil survey...

Fishing Guides in the Anthropocene

Creator:: Wind, Thad A.
Abstract:: How do fishing guides of the Cascade and Coast Range rivers negotiate the conflicting tensions between their client’s desire to experience the wild and the extractive nature based tourism of their role as fishing guides? How do they position their services relative to the environment and an imagined landscape that...

Accuracy and suitability of several stand sampling methods in riparian zones

Creator:: Marquardt, Theresa
Abstract:: Stand structure in headwater riparian areas of western Oregon is highly variable making quantification of structural attributes within these stands difficult. A reliable sampling design is important to characterize and monitor changes in stand structure over time. This study examined sixteen alternatives for sampling live conifers and six alternatives for...

Improving community profiles for Oregon fisheries and coastal communities through collaboration

Creator:: Package, Christina
Abstract:: In an effort to supplement the recently completed NOAA fishing community profiles, three coastal Oregon communities were chosen as sites for a collaborative project designed to produce long-form profiles. In order to provide a representation of the coast Newport, Port Orford, and Garibali, Oregon were included based on community size,...

Examination of imputation methods to estimate status and change of forest attributes from paneled inventory data

Creator:: Eskelson, Bianca N. I.
Abstract:: The Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program conducts an annual inventory throughout the United States. In the western United States, 10% of all plots (one panel) are measured annually, and a moving average is used for estimating current condition and change of forest attributes while alternative methods are sought in...

Structure-forming benthic invertebrates : habitat distributions on the continental margin of Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Strom, Natalie A.
Abstract:: Structure-forming invertebrates belong to a polyphyletic group of primarily sessile and sedentary megafauna that can significantly enhance the complexity of physical habitats. A number of these organisms, including cold-water corals and sponges, are known to be slow growing and vulnerable to physical disturbance. In addition, as filter feeders, these invertebrates...

The Siletz Eels: Oral History Interviews with Siletz Tribal Elders and Neighboring Residents Regarding The Decline in Siletz River Lamprey Populations

Creator:: Downey, Tom, Rilatos, Darin, Sondenaa, Annette, and Zybach, Bob
Abstract:: Lamprey eel harvesting has systematically and periodically occurred along the Siletz River and its tributaries for as many as hundreds, or thousands, or tens of thousands of years that human families and lamprey eel populations have coexisted in the Siletz Valley ecosystem. Historical, cultural, and biological information for the twentieth...

Pacific lamprey Entosphenus tridentatus : integrating traditional ecological knowledge and contemporary values into conservation planning, and stream substrate associations with larval abundance in the Willamette River Basin, Oregon, U.S.A.

Creator:: Sheoships, Gabe
Abstract:: Pacific lamprey Entosphenus tridentatus is a valuable icon and traditional food source for Indigenous people of western North America. Native Americans have utilized traditional ecological knowledge (TEK) since time immemorial to guide their ways of life, transmitting cultural values and natural history to further generational knowledge. Pacific lamprey are in...
