Survival and nest site characteristics of translocated mountain quail on Steens Mountain, Oregon

Creator:: Nelson, Jamie N.
Abstract:: Mountain Quail (Oreortyx pictus) populations have declined in the eastern portion of their range during the last century. However, few studies have investigated the nesting habitat and survival of Mountain Quail translocated into an area from which they have been extirpated. We translocated 217 wild Mountain Quail (Oreortyx pictus) from...

Habitat parameters associated with the distribution of seven willow species on a stream in southeastern Oregon

Creator:: Gilbert, Griffith J.
Abstract:: Thirteen different habitat parameters were measured either quantitatively or qualitatively around seven different Salix (willow) species on a defined reach of stream on the southwestern slope of Steens Mountain in southeastern Oregon in order to both broaden the current information base of riparian ecology and inform future willow plantings aimed...

The effects of burning in mountain big sagebrush on key sage grouse habitat characteristics in southeastern Oregon

Creator:: McDowell, Michelle K. D.
Abstract:: Sage grouse are a species of concern because their abundance, distribution, and productivity have declined during the past century. Sage grouse productivity has been linked to specific habitat components including particular forbs and native bunchgrasses. Studies on the effects of fire were conducted in Southeastern Oregon in mountain big sagebrush...

Understory vegetation response and nitrogen cycling following cutting of western juniper

Creator:: Bates, Jonathan D.
Abstract:: Since the late 1880's western juniper has expanded in range and increased in density in sagebrush-bunchgrass, riparian, and forested plant communities of the Pacific Northwest. Succession to western juniper woodland has been shown to reduce the productivity and diversity of the understory component, result in concentration of soil nutrients beneath...

Petrogenesis of the Steens Basalt : Variation in Source Contributions and Effects of Crustal Passage During the Onset of Columbia River Flood Basalt Volcanism

Creator:: Moore, Nicole E.
Abstract:: Continental flood basalts represent short-lived but immense blasts of mafic magma to the continental crust. The youngest and smallest continental flood basalt worldwide, the Columbia River Basalt, initiated with the eruption of the most mafic member, the Steens Basalt (~16.9 Ma). The Steens Basalt is exposed in southeast Oregon, southwest...

Offloading of I/O transactions in current CPU architectures

Creator:: Larsen, Steen K.
Abstract:: IO transactions within a computer system have evolved along with other system components (i.e., CPU, memory, video) from programmed IO (PIO). In current mainstream systems (spanning from HPC to mobile) the IO transactions are CPU-centric descriptor-based DMA transactions. The key benefit is that slower IO devices can DMA write system...

Master/slave parallel processing

Creator:: Larsen, Steen K.
Abstract:: An 8 bit microcontroller slave unit was designed, constructed, and tested to demonstrate advantages and feasibility of master/slave parallel processing using conventional processors and relatively slow inter-processor communications. An 8 bit ISA bus controlled by an 80X86 is interfaced to a logic block that controls data flow to and from...

Archaeological investigation and technological analysis of the Quartz Mountain Obsidian Quarry, central Oregon

Creator:: Hatch, John B.
Abstract:: The Quartz Mountain Obsidian Quarry is located in the Southeast corner of the Bend Fort Rock Ranger District in central Oregon, approximately forty-five miles southeast of Bend, Oregon. The research of the Quartz Mountain Obsidian Quarry began with a literature search of other quarry sites in the area and the...

Investigating the Tibetan crust through automatic S wave detection and travel-time tomography using the Hi-CLIMB seismic array

Creator:: Riddle, Evan
Abstract:: The Hi-CLIMB broadband seismic experiment (2002-2005) operated 233 stations along an 800 km long north-south line from the Himalayan foreland into the central Tibetan Plateau and in a 350x350 km sub-array within southern Tibet and central and eastern Nepal. Station spacing was approximately 8 km along the line and 50...

Partial melting of tonalite at the margins of a Columbia River Basalt Group dike, Wallowa Mountains, northeastern Oregon

Creator:: Petcovic, Heather L.
Abstract:: Columbia River Basalt Group dikes cut the tonalite-granodiorite Wallowa Batholith in northeastern Oregon, providing a natural setting in which to examine partial melting. Many dikes have up to 5 m-wide zones of quenched partially melted wallrock at their margins. This paper examines the progressive partial melting reactions in biotite-and hornblende-bearing...
