The effects of thinning on forest-floor small mammals in the Coast Range of Oregon

Creator:: Larson, David J.
Abstract:: Thinning of young Douglas-fir forests has the potential to enhance structural diversity and improve habitat for wildlife. I examined the effects of thinning and thinning intensity on abundance and demographic characteristics of forest-floor small mammals in the Coast Range of Oregon 5 and 6 years after thinning had occurred. Thinning...

Habitat selection by juvenile Swainson’s thrushes (Catharus ustulatus) in headwater riparian areas, Northwestern Oregon, USA

Creator:: Jenkins, Stephanie R., Betts, Matthew G., Huso, Manuela M., and Hagar, Joan C.
Abstract:: Lower order, non-fish-bearing streams, often termed ‘‘headwater streams’’, have received minimal research effort and protection priority, especially in mesic forests where distinction between riparian and upland vegetation can be subtle. Though it is generally thought that breeding bird abundance is higher in riparian zones, little is known about species distributions...

Influence of red alder competition on cambial phenology and latewood formation in Douglas-fir

Creator:: Grotta, A. T., Gartner, Barbara L., Radosevich, S. R., and Huso, M.
Abstract:: To better understand the influence of competition on wood formation and wood quality in Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii [Mirb.] Franco), patterns of cambial growth and latewood production were examined for one growing season in 15-year-old plantations with similar densities but differing Douglas-fir/red alder (Alnus rubra Bong.) ratios. The treatments consisted of...

Factors Affecting Incubation Patterns and Sex Roles of Black Oystercatchers in Alaska

Creator:: Spiegel, Caleb S., Haig, Susan M., Goldstein, Michael I., and Huso, Manuela
Abstract:: Studies examining the effects of human disturbance on avian parental behavior and reproductive success are fundamental to bird conservation. However, many such studies fail to also consider the influence of natural threats, a variable environment, and parental roles. Our work examines interactive relationships of cyclical (time of day, tide, temperature,...

Creator:: Zald, Harold S.J., Spies, Thomas A., Huso, Manuela, and Gatziolis, Demetrios
Abstract:: Tree invasions have been documented throughout Northern Hemisphere high elevation meadows, as well as globally in many grass and forb-dominated ecosystems. Tree invasions are often associated with large-scale changes in climate or disturbance regimes, but are fundamentally driven by regeneration processes influenced by interactions between climatic, topographic, and biotic factors...

Management, Morphological, and Environmental Factors Influencing Douglas-Fir Bark Furrows in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Sheridan, Christopher D., Puettmann, Klaus J., Huso, Manuela M.P., Hagar, Joan C., and Falk, Kristen R.
Abstract:: Many land managers in the Pacific Northwest have the goal of increasing late-successional forest structures. Despite the documented importance of Douglas-fir tree bark structure in forested ecosystems, little is known about factors influencing bark development and how foresters can manage development. This study investigated the relative importance of tree size,...

Region-Wide Ecological Responses of Arid Wyoming Big Sagebrush Communities to Fuel Treatments

Creator:: Pyke, David A., Shaff, Scott E., Lindgren, Andrew I., Schupp, Eugene W., Doescher, Paul S., Chambers, Jeanne C., Burnham, Jeffrey S., and Huso, Manuela M.
Abstract:: If arid sagebrush ecosystems lack resilience to disturbances or resistance to annual invasives, then alternative successional states dominated by annual invasives, especially cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.), are likely after fuel treatments. We identified six Wyoming big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata ssp. wyomingensis Beetle & Young) locations (152–381 mm precipitation) that we...

Spatial and temporal movement patterns of wintering Dunlin (Calidris alpina) and Killdeer (Charadrius vociferus) in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Sanzenbacher, Peter M.
Abstract:: Avian movement behavior provides insight on patterns of regional and local fidelity, habitat and resource requirements, the scale at which individuals perceive the landscape, and the relative influence of the spatial array of resources. Shorebirds (suborder: Charadrii) are a diverse and mobile group of wetland associated species. Large numbers of...
