Topographic heterogeneity and the spatial pattern of air temperature in a mountain landscape

Creator:: Wilson, Brian Marc
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to compile, validate, and map minimum and maximum mean monthly temperature and temperature ranges for periods of 10 to 14 months between July 2009 and June 2012, measured using 16 to 182 sensors distributed over the HJ Andrews Forest, a mountain landscape of 64...

The effects of ownership pattern on forest road networks in western Oregon

Creator:: Freid, Matthew A.
Abstract:: The pattern of ownership imposed on the-forest landscape of Western Oregon defines the boundaries in which differences in jurisdiction, regulation, and land use operate. Road building is controlled by these factors, and in turn has an effect on the cumulative effects of human utilization of the forest. This study examined...

A review and assessment of network concepts and their applications in geography and related disciplines

Creator:: Versluis, Anna J.
Abstract:: Networks are a structure common to many disciplines. Research on networks has taken different forms in domains such as graph theory, sociology, vascular networks, small-world networks, geomorphology, ecology, evolution and engineering. Networks may be modeled as non-spatial networks (unvalued graphs), which contain only topological information, or as spatial networks (valued...

A study of varying logging practices on stream temperature in the Blue River drainage, Western Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Nicolello, Jon
Abstract:: Three (3) streams with desired similar characteristics, located in the Blue River Watershed in the Central Oregon Cascades, were studied to better understand the impacts of forest harvest on stream temperature and aquatic habitat. Of the 3 designated streams, North Fork Quartz Creek, Blue River Face, and Wolf Mann, only...

Stream temperature response to partial canopy removal in first and second order streams in the central Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Sullivan, Lawrence
Abstract:: Stream temperature response of first and second order streams to the Blue River Landscape Study (BRLS), an alternative land management strategy based on historic fire regimes, was analyzed in the central Oregon Cascades. The BRLS treatment prescription of a 50% canopy reduction and low intensity burn was applied with a...

Forestry herbicide use on private forest lands in Lincoln and Benton County Oregon, 1991-1994

Creator:: Godino, John Alessandro
Abstract:: The use of phenoxy herbicides is an established practice in industrial forestry, particularly in the Pacific Northwest. Forestry herbicide use in this region has often been controversial. To better understand the spatial patterns of herbicide use and the potential for human health and environmental impacts, a landscape level perspective is...

The Spatial distribution of parks and crime in Seattle, Washington

Creator:: Weems, Candice Michelle
Abstract:: Parks help to build social cohesion within a community. Urban open spaces offer a sense of place, act as the focal points for public gatherings, and provide an opportunity for social networking (Francis, 2003; Hayward, 1989). While offering so much they are also known to be places of disgust and...

The effects of stand thinning on soil erosion rates at Jim's Creek in the Willamette National Forest, Oregon

Creator:: McFadden, Andrew K.
Abstract:: Surface sediment transport is an important geomorphic process which can be significantly altered by management activities in forested ecosystems. Disturbance of the soil surface may result in increased sediment delivery to fish bearing streams and degradation of soil structure. Selective thinning and low impact yarding techniques were utilized in an...

The use of ecological principles for riparian zone management in four forest planning documents

Creator:: Sinton, Diana Stuart
Abstract:: The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the extent to which ecological principles were used in four documents of differing scope and intent, that address management of forest resources and riparian zones in three National Forests of the Pacific Northwest. We use the phrase "ecological principles" in a very...

Trends in streamflow from old growth forested watersheds in the western Cascades

Creator:: Moore, Kathleen M.
Abstract:: Increasing temperatures in western North America are expected to result in a decline in winter snowpacks, earlier snowmelt, and a shift in the timing of streamflows, with an increasing fraction of streamflows occurring earlier in the water year and drier conditions during the summer. However, few streamflow datasets have associated...
