Disturbance and landscape history as a reference for evaluating forest management effects at a regional scale : examples from the Coast Range of Oregon, USA

Creator:

Nonaka, Etsuko

Abstract:

History is an invaluable source of information to understand and evaluate management influences on contemporary ecosystems and landscapes. The first two chapters (Chapters 2 and 3) explored the concept of historical range of variability (HRV) in landscape structure and stand structure using a stochastic fire simulation model to simulate presettlement...

Nutrient losses and nitrogen mineralization on forested watersheds in Oregon's Coast Range

Creator:

Miller, James H.

Abstract:

Nutrient losses of the biologically responsive anions, nitrate and bicarbonate together with the major cations, were monitored on 14 small watersheds in Oregon's Coast Range and evaluated in relation to management-induced disturbance. Mixed forests of Douglas-fir and red alder had dominated these high-nitrogen sites prior to treatment. A paired-watershed experimental...

Tradeoffs associated with managing forested landscapes for multiple-uses

Creator:

Lichtenstein, Mark E.

Abstract:

This study focuses on the tradeoffs that exist for managing forested landscapes for biodiversity and timber production. Tradeoff evaluation is important to natural resource managers so they can understand the benefits and costs of alternative management prescriptions. The study examines three watersheds in the Oregon Coast Range and 166 terrestrial...

The use of ơ15N and ơ¹³C to analyze food webs and identify source-sink relationships in riparian canopy vegetation of the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:

Scott, Emily E.

Abstract:

In the Coast Range of western Oregon, some natural resource managers are converting red alder-dominated riparian areas to conifers to increase the future source of in-stream large wood for salmonid habitat. However, studies in Alaska have shown red alder-dominated riparian areas support greater invertebrate biomass compared to conifer-dominated areas. In...

Distribution of understory species in relation to maximum and minimum tree influence in the montane forest of the Central Oregon Cascades

Creator:

Robinson, Andrew Frederick, Jr.

Abstract:

Twenty sites of uniform topography and soil were select ed in the montane forest found on the East flank of the Central Oregon Cascades. These sites were located along a vegetational gradient composed of five plant communities: Abies/Pachistima, Pinus/Ceanothus, Pinus Arctostaphylos-Purshia, Pinus/Purshia/Festuca, and Juniperus Festuca. An attempt was made to...

Growth and yield, structure, composition, and soil compaction in a Western Oregon Douglas-fir forest after 35 years of modified selection thinning

Creator:

Stringer, Darin S.

Abstract:

Modified selection thinning has been utilized by some non-industrial foresters in Douglas-fir forests of Western Oregon and Washington for at least 35 years. This silvicultural strategy has not been tested, but has often been associated with reduced volume production and other undesirable effects. It continues to be used on many...

The great fires : Indian burning and catastrophic forest fire patterns of the Oregon Coast Range, 1491-1951

Creator:

Zybach, Bob

Abstract:

The purpose of this study is to examine the relationship between land management practices of Indian communities prior to contact with Europeans and the nature or character of subsequent catastrophic forest fires in the Oregon Coast Range. The research focus is spatial and temporal patterns of Indian burning across the...

Structural and functional comparison of human-impacted and natural forest landscapes in the western Cascades of Oregon

Creator:

Pennington, Deana D.

Abstract:

This study compared effects of human and natural wildfire disturbance on age class distribution and associated ecosystem properties of forests in a 15,670 km2 area of the western Cascades of Oregon. The study site is characterized by three forest use types: low elevation, intensively harvested private industrial lands; mid elevation...

Kinship, environment and the Forest Service : homesteading in Oregon's Coast Range

Creator:

Prior, Jan M.

Abstract:

The settlement history of a remote area in the Coast Range of Oregon, from the 1870s to the 1930s, is examined through factors that may have influenced the success or failure, and length of residence of the homesteaders and later residents. Despite the rugged and isolated location, a small community...
