Shore protection structures in Oregon : An analysis of demand and the implementation of engineering recommendations

Creator:: Chenault, Carla Diane and Chenault, Carla D.
Abstract:: Stabilization structures are the most commonly used form of shore protection along the Oregon coast. Eighty-five percent of the hard stabilization structures built in Oregon from 1976 – 1999 were riprap revetments. An evaluation was conducted of 143 riprap revetments in the northern three counties of Oregon. Clear trends exist...

Selected rural interstate interchanges and adjacent land values

Creator:: Radcliffe, Steven A.
Abstract:: Land value appreciation and its relation to three interchanges on Interstate 5 were studied. Lots within a two mile (3.2 km.) radius and in existence in 1965 and 1975 were included. The interchanges were selected on the basis of form, setting, type of crossroad, and distance from urban areas. Lots...

Public domain withdrawn from mineral entry in Wallowa-Whitman National Forest: a case study

Creator:: Andersen, Steven B.
Abstract:: Since the passage of the mining and mineral leasing laws, a considerable amount of the public domain has been excluded from mineral exploration and development. It has been estimated that as much as fifty-three and sixty-four percent of the public lands have been withdrawn from the jurisdiction of the mining...

Spatial aspects of property value appreciation

Creator:: Wilson, Steven A.
Abstract:: An attempt is made to determine whether or not property value appreciation on land adjacent to an expanding urban center is related to distance from the city and to identify the temporal variation in this relationship. The results of simple linear regression strongly suggest that property value appreciation and distance...

The spatial location and temporal frequency of storm fronts along the Pacific Coast between 35 and 55 degrees north latitude during the period 1973-1994

Creator:: Barnett, Steven J.
Abstract:: Research Questions: 1) What are the characteristics of storm location and frequency that distinguish interannual forcing events, (ENSO periods) for the northwest Pacific Coast? 2) Are there differences in the spatial and temporal characteristics of storm events, (location and frequency), between interannual forcing periods and annual average periods? 3) Are...

Factors affecting solar access in the Portland-Vancouver Metropolitan Area

Creator:: Molnar, William
Abstract:: This study examines the relationships among variables influencing solar access in the Portland-Vancouver Metropolitan Area. The analysis is based on a random sample of approximately 400 single-family homes in 21 local jurisdictions outside the city limits of Portland. Relationships between percentage of available sunlight and selected variables were examined by...

Evaluation of a Habitat Suitability Model to predict the geospatial distribution of Olympia oyster presence in Yaquina Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Bohlen, Victoria L.
Abstract:: A massive reduction in historic populations of Olympia oysters (Ostrea lurida), the only native oyster found on the west coast of North America, has contributed to a loss of ecosystem and cultural services once provided by this species. Resource management agencies and environmental organizations are working to protect and enhance...

Regional variation of pull factors for retail sales in Oregon's nonmetropolitan counties 1979, 1982, 1984

Creator:: Corcoran, Patrick
Abstract:: The performance of pull factors for total retail sales in Oregon's nonmetropolitan counties during the economic cycle of boom, bust, and recovery of the early 1980s is examined for geographic patterns. One regional pattern and several county patterns are identified and discussed. Counties having the highest and lowest pull factors,...

Regional patterns of alkalinity in Oregon streams: an overview of ecological regionalization

Creator:: Henderson, Sandra
Abstract:: While many geographers believe that the regional concept is central to geographic study, no definitive regional scheme exists. The criteria considered in each regional study will relate to a stated objective or study. Ecological regionalization is a major contribution by geographers to environmental studies. By examining spatial patterns of factors...

Methodological considerations for implementing the U.S. Soil Conservation Service Land Evaluation and Site Assessment (LESA) System in Oregon, with special reference to Marion County, Oregon

Creator:: Fastner, Christopher John
Abstract:: Oregon land use specialists believe that the present definitions of farm and forest land in the state planning goals are too broad. This results in poor quality resource lands being as strongly protected as those of top quality. With persistent growth pressure on rural lands, a means to distinguish among...
