Water residence time and runoff generation in the western Cascades of Oregon

Creator:: McGuire, Kevin J.
Abstract:: The age, or residence time of water is a fundamental descriptor of catchment hydrology, revealing information about the storage, flow pathways and source of water in a single integrated measure. While there has been tremendous recent interest in residence time to characterize catchments, there are few studies that quantify residence...

Hydro-biogeochemical coupling at the hillslope and catchment scale

Creator:: van Verseveld, Willem J.
Abstract:: The specific objectives of this dissertation are to determine subsurface flow behaviors across different antecedent wetness conditions from a top-down perspective and to mechanistically assess the hydrological controls on DOC and N transport at the hillslope and catchment scale. The study area is a small catchment where hillslopes issue directly...

Beyond the paired-catchment approach : isotope tracing to illuminate stocks, flows, transit time, and scaling

Creator:: Hale, V. Cody
Abstract:: This dissertation integrates a process-based hydrological investigation with an ongoing paired-catchment study to better understand how forest harvest impacts catchment function at multiple scales. We do this by addressing fundamental questions related to the stocks, flows and transit times of water. Isotope tracers are used within a top-down catchment intercomparison...

Patterns of nitrogen fluxes in watersheds of the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, OR

Creator:: Vanderbilt, Kristin Lynn, 1967-
Abstract:: Seasonal and annual patterns of N fluxes and concentrations in streamwater in six conifer-dominated watersheds at the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, OR, were studied to gain insight into the factors that influence N retention in this ecosystem. Processes affecting N flux in streamwater differed between organic (DON) and inorganic (DIN;...

The historic and contemporary ecology of western Cascade meadows : archeology, vegetation, and macromoth ecology

Creator:: Highland, Steven A.
Abstract:: Montane meadows in the western Cascades of Oregon occupy approximately 5% of the landscape, but contribute greatly to the region's biodiversity. Western Cascades meadows are dynamic parts of the landscape and have contracted by over 50% in the past two hundred years in the HJ Andrews Experimental Forest (hereafter Andrews...

Study of some biological and nutritional factors that influence nodulation by Frankia on red alder (Alnus rubra) and snowbrush (Ceanothus velutinus) within three age-class Douglas-fir forests in H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest, Oregon

Creator:: Rojas-Melo, Nestor S.
Abstract:: Bioassays using red alder and snowbrush plants grown in soils collected from a clearcut, a young Douglas-fir plantation, and an old-growth stand were conducted. Sites are located at the Andrews Experimental Forest, Oregon. In the first bioassays, more alder than snowbrush plants survived and nodulated. Of the plants that survived,...

Inter-relationships of vegetation, hydrology and micro-climate in a young, Douglas-fir forest

Creator:: Barnard, Holly Rene
Abstract:: The links between forests, streamflow, and climate are poorly understood. Despite hundreds of studies over the past 60 years, fundamental questions of forests' effects on the hydrologic cycle remain unanswered. The hydrological cycle involves mutually-dependent biological and physical processes that operate at multiple scales of time and space, and this...

Post-harvest establishment influences ANPP, soil C and DOC export in complex mountainous terrain

Creator:: Peterson, Fox S.
Abstract:: The link between aboveground net primary productivity (ANPP) and resource gradients generated by complex terrain (solar radiation, nutrients, and moisture) has been established in the literature. Belowground ecosystem stocks and functions, such as soil organic carbon (SOC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and belowground productivity have also been related to the...

Effects of spatial scale and heterogeneity on avian occupancy dynamics and population trends in forested mountain landscapes

Creator:: Frey, Sarah J. K.
Abstract:: Population trends and patterns in species distributions are the major currencies used to examine responses by biodiversity to changing environments. Effective conservation recommendations require that models of both distribution dynamics and population trends accurately reflect reality. However, identification of the appropriate temporal and spatial scales of animal response, and then...

Local scale spatial and temporal variation in wet deposition of persistent organic pollutants by snow

Creator:: Walsh, Christopher D.
Abstract:: The objective of this research was to assess the variability of POP deposition by snow on a 10 km spatial scale by measuring the POP concentrations in fresh-fallen snow from remote alpine sites. Samples of pre-metamorphic snow were concurrently collected from three remote alpine sites, of matched altitude and exposure,...
