These data were all collected in summer 2021 at Hinkle Creek watershed, a headwater ecosystem in a managed forest landscape in western Oregon. The data set has two components. The first component of the data set includes information about age 1 and older fish collected from two sections of the...
Dataset contains a 2015 partial re-measurement of the Blue Mountains Fire and Fire Surrogate study. 8 plots were measured from each of the 16 units, selected
randomly from all plots in each unit. Species are recorded using USDA plant codes, "UNKN" is unknown species. For fine fuels, 3 Brown's transects...
European green crab, Carcinus maenas, trapped and collected in coastal Oregon and Washington coastal estuaries during the 2019. Data for individual crabs include: estuary, site, date of collection, sex, carapace width, weight, molt stage (color of abdomen), missing limbs, estimated year class, method of collection, and name of collector.
Data on green crabs collected and trapped from Makah Bay to Coos Bay in 2018. Data included: Estuary, site, date, sex, carapace width, weight, molt state, estimated year class, missing limbs, collection method, collector and pheromone treatment.
The dataset was generated as part of a study conducted by Oregon State University (OSU) and funded by the Oregon Department of Transportation (ODOT). The study, titled "Use of Blue Lights on Paving Equipment in Work Zones," was conducted from June to December 2018. The dataset includes vehicle speed and...
This presentation talks about 1) data repositories in general, what they are, how to select one, and characteristics of good data repositories. 2) Alternatives to data repositories. 3) ScholarsArchive@OSU as a data repository: who it is for, what is the deposit process, and how to prepare datasets for submission.
This...
All necessary data files (including a README file) associated with the Master's Thesis titled: Contrasting Epiphytic and Ground Layer Macrolichen Communities along the Coast-to-inland Climatic Gradient in Oregon.
Small, single-point load cells were used to measure force exerted by the first leaf of three hard red cultivars (Farnum, Finley, and Norwest 553) as it emerged from a deep planting depth in a small containerized volume of soil. Coleoptile diameter was determined using a 0 to 25 mm, ratchet-stop...
The Integrated Landscape Assessment Project (ILAP) was a multi-year effort to produce information, maps, and models to help land managers, policy-makers, and others conduct mid- to broad-scale (e.g., watersheds to states and larger areas) prioritization of land management actions, perform landscape assessments, and estimate cumulative effects of management actions for...
The dataset contains three loblolly pines (Pinus taeda Lindl.) stems reconstructed with terrestrial photogrammetric techniques. The trees were growing in west-central Louisiana, Vernon parish. The reconstructed models reached over 50% of the relative height, the proportion of the stem, on which the majority of the merchantable volume is located. After...
This study seeks to address the following questions: What are the research practices and needs of graduate students? How can new library services and features reduce the gap between graduate student needs and current IR services and features? Semi-structured qualitative interviews were conducted with eight graduate students from different disciplines....
In this dataset we present the environmental effect of solar panels. We had two weather stations, one in a control area and one in an area with solar panels. The weather stations collected wind speed, temperature, solar radiation and relative humidity. We also measured soil moisture in different shaded zones...
We characterized wildfire transmission and exposure within a matrix of large land tenures (federal, state, and private) surrounding 56 communities within a 3.3 million ha fire prone region of central Oregon US. Wildfire simulation and network analysis were used to quantify the exchange of fire among land tenures and communities...
1.) We investigated the potential of cross-scale interactions to affect the outcome of density reduction in a large-scale silvicultural experiment to better understand options for managing forests under climate change.
2.) We measured tree growth and intrinsic water-use efficiency (iWUE) based on stable carbon isotopes (d13C) to investigate impacts of...
In the Pacific Northwest, USA, the extraordinarily low snowpacks of winters 2013–2014 and 2014– 2015 stressed regional water resources and the social environmental system. We introduce two new approaches to better understand how seasonal snow water storage during these two winters would compare to snow water storage under warmer climate...
Continuous integration (CI) systems automate the compilation, building, and testing of software. Despite CI rising as a big success story in automated software engineering, it has received almost no attention from the research community. For example, how widely is CI used in practice, and what are some costs and benefits...
This is the data set used for the analysis in the paper "Dams and Population Displacement on China’s Upper Mekong River: Implications for Social Capital and Social-Ecological Resilience." In 2010, in collaboration with Chinese colleagues, we administered a household survey questionnaire to 729 households in more than 30 villages across...
These slides were presented at a 1.5 day workshop on research data management and curation for the Northwest Five Consortium (NW5C). The NW5C is composed of Willamette University, Whitman College, University of Puget Sound, Reed College, and Lewis and Clark College. The mission of the NW5C is to enhance the...
