  • Spatial and temporal patterns of fire in the forests of the central Oregon Coast Range

    Creator:
    Impara, Peter C.
    Abstract:
    Fire history and fire regime were interpreted from tree ring analysis of 4320 stumps at 178 sites in a 25 by 55 km area in the central Oregon Coast Range. A total of 27 fire episodes were identified in a 516 year period, with sizes estimated at 18 to 544...

    Wong, Peter, Hurst, Charlene N., Ray, R. Adam, and Bartholomew, Jerri L.
    Abstract:
    Native to the Pacific Northwest, Ceratomyxashastais a myxosporeanparasite that infects wild and cultivated salmon and has a significance impact on its population in the Klamath River basin. The study suggests that the transmission of mixed genotypes of the parasite are common in Chinook salmon but the age of the fish...

  • 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...

  • Tidal influence on downstream fining in gravel-bed rivers

    Creator:
    Coles, Derron Rafiq
    Abstract:
    This research examines the downstream fining phenomenon as it operates in coastal gravel-bed rivers of Oregon. Downstream fining is a change in bed composition toward smaller sediment sizes in the downstream direction. Changes in stream flow discharge and channel slope affect the rate of bed-load transport, thereby altering the downstream...

  • Parallelism encapsulation in C++

    Creator:
    Wu, Youfeng and Lewis, Ted G.
    Abstract:
    Object oriented programming features information hiding and encapsulation, meaning that 1) each object hides the the implementation details tram access from outside and only a set of methods (interface routines) are visible outside of the object, and 2) changes to the implementation of the object do not require changes to...

  • The salinity extrema of the world ocean

    Creator:
    Ingham, Merton C., 1930-
    Abstract:
    The principal salinity extrema and extremum surfaces of the world ocean are described by the analysis and plotting of data from 885 hydrographic stations in the three major oceans, the Southern Ocean, and the American Mediterranean Sea. The distributions of salinity, temperature, depth, and density along the extremum surfaces, plotted...

  • Soil carbon and nitrogen in old-growth forests in western Oregon and Washington

    Creator:
    Remillard, Suzanne Marie
    Abstract:
    Soil organic carbon (SOC, kg C m-2) is an important component in evaluating global C stores. The nitrogen (TN, kg N m"2) cycle is closely linked to C and understanding its role is also important. Contents and distributions of SOC and TN in soil profiles, to 1-meter depth, were estimated...
