Land Cover Classification (5-meter) - Kings River Fisher Project 2014 - 2018

Creator:: McGregor, Eric L., Purcell, Kathryn L., Green, Rebecca E., Matthews, Sean M., Green, David S., and Tucker, Jody M.
Abstract:: These high resolution (5x5-meter pixel) categorical models of land cover were created by training random forest classification models on RapidEye (Planet Labs Inc.) satellite spectral data for each year and then predicting those models across the landscape. Training data were created by visually interpreting random plots over high resolution NAIP...

Proposal to Establish Ruchi Glades Research Natural Area

Creator:: Murray, Michael
Abstract:: Ruchi Glades is proposed for designation as a Research Natural Area. It is located on the upper slopes of Oregon Caves National Monument which is administered by the National Park Service. Ruchi Glads has an impressive diversity of plant communities for such a small area. The Oregon Natural Heritage Plan...

Spatial patterns and trends of summertime low cloudiness for the Pacific Northwest, 1996-2017

Creator:: Dye, Alex W., Rastogi, Bharat, Clemesha, Rachel E. S., Kim, John B., Samelson, Roger M., Still, Christopher J., and Williams, A. Park
Abstract:: Summertime low clouds are common in the Pacific Northwest (PNW), but spatiotemporal patterns have not been characterized. We show the first maps of low cloudiness for the western PNW and North Pacific Ocean using a 22‐year satellite‐derived record of monthly mean low cloudiness frequency for May through September and supplemented...

Burning the legacy? Influence of wildfire reburn on dead wood dynamics in a temperate conifer forest

Creator:: Donato, Daniel C., Fontaine, Joseph B., and Campbell, John L.
Abstract:: Dynamics of dead wood, a key component of forest structure, are not well described for mixed-severity fire regimes with widely varying fire intervals. A prominent form of such variation is when two stand-replacing fires occur in rapid succession, commonly termed an early-seral “reburn.” These events are thought to strongly influence...

Investigating Calving Areas for Rocky Mountain Elk on the Plumas National Forest: Implications for Land Management

Creator:: Marshall, Abigail C.
Abstract:: Sustainable elk (Cervus canadensis) habitat management on U.S. Forest Service (USFS) lands involves a complex relationship between management practices and ecological processes. A relatively novel Rocky Mountain elk population (Cervus canadensis nelsoni) on the Plumas National Forest (PNF) in northeastern California became established in the early 2000s, but there is...

A quantitative wildfire risk assessment using a modular approach of geostatistical clustering and regionally distinct valuations of assets—A case study in Oregon

Creator:: Schmidt, Andres, Leavell, Daniel, Punches, John, Rocha Ibarra, Marco A., Kagan, James S., Creutzburg, Megan, McCune, Myrica, Salwasser, Janine, Walter, Cara, and Berger, Carrie
Abstract:: The intensity and scale of wildfires has increased throughout the Pacific Northwest in recent decades, especially within the last decade, destroying vast amounts of valuable resources and assets. This trend is predicted to remain or even magnify due climate change, growing population, increased housing density. Furthermore, the associated stress of...

A Systematic Review of Diversity and Inclusion Scholarly Sources in Natural Resources (1919 – 2018)

Creator:: Brown, Jasmine K. and Rempel, Hannah G.
Abstract:: This dataset was created for the purpose of collecting and cataloguing sources that mentioned aspects of cultural diversity or workforce diversity within natural resource professions. The exploratory questions that prompted the collection of sources in this dataset were: - Is diversity discussed in scholarly sources within natural resources? - If...

Recovery of ectomycorrhizal fungus communities fifteen years after fuels reduction treatments in ponderosa pine forests of the Blue Mountains, Oregon

Creator:: Hart, Benjamin T. N., Smith, Jane E., Luoma, Daniel L., and Hatten, Jeff A.
Abstract:: Managers use restorative fire and thinning for ecological benefits and to convert fuel-heavy forests to fuel-lean landscapes that lessen the threat of stand-replacing wildfire. In this study, we evaluated the long-term impact of thinning and prescribed fire on soil biochemistry and the mycorrhizal fungi associated with ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa)....

Environmental Relationships in Forests of Early 20th Century Coos County, Oregon, Based on Timber Cruise Data

Creator:: Zobel, Donald B.
Abstract:: Timber cruise data can provide useful information not available elsewhere. Measurements of timber volume (timber cruises) from the early 20th century for Coos County, Oregon, were used to assess the degree to which tree species distribution and timber volume varied with edaphic and climatic factors. The study area has diverse...

Discharge and suspended sediment a paired watershed study examining the effects of contemporary forest harvesting in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Hatten, Jeff, Segura, Catalina, Bladon, Kevin, Hale, Cody, Ice, George, and Stednick, John
Abstract:: Forest harvesting practices can expose mineral soils, decrease infiltration capacities of soils, disturb the stream bank and channel, and increase erosion and fine sediment supply to stream channels. To reduce nonpoint source sediment pollution associated with forest management activities and to maintain the high water quality typically provided from forests,...
