A case analysis of Oregon's Willamette River Greenway Program

Creator:: Bauer, Webb Sterling
Abstract:: The Willamette River Greenway Program was created by an act of the Oregon Legislature in 1968 and modified by a second act in 1973. The purpose of the program was to protect the natural environment of the river from approximately the foot of the Cascade Range near Eugene, north to...

The Willamette River greenway : environmental and attitudinal considerations

Creator:: Honey, William D.
Abstract:: The Willamette River Basin, Oregon, viewed in terms of a cultural-ecological system, has been subject to three phases of cultural development: hunting and gathering, agrarian, and industrial-urban. Each population base has employed a technology to exploit the environment to the extent that its patterns of culture would allow. This technology...

Epichloë typhina (fungus) - Botanophila lobata (fly) interaction : an invasive "pollinator" system in its introduced range in western Oregon

Creator:: Kaser, Joseph M.
Abstract:: Epichloë typhina (Ascomycetes: Clavicipitaceae) is an endophytic fungus that infects perennial Pooid grasses and is the causal agent of choke disease. It is endemic to Europe and was inadvertently introduced into orchardgrass seed production fields in western Oregon. Choke disease, which was first recorded in Oregon in 1996, currently infects...

Oregon's Mid-Willamette Valley wetlands : agricultural uses, alternative uses, problems and trends

Creator:: Tsutsui, Setsuo Harry
Abstract:: The wetlands are distinguished from other lands of the Mid-Willamette Valley by excessive soil moisture. The wetlands, as defined for this study, consist of 20 soil series (in 22 soil mapping units) which are classified by the Soil Conservation Service as having excessive wetness as the major factor limiting their...

Geochemical characteristics of iron-manganese nodules in seasonally-saturated soils of the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Seter, Lisa M.
Abstract:: This study was initiated to characterize the distribution of Fe-Mn nodules and to elucidate trends of Fe, Mn, and P relative to the intensity of the annual cycles of reduction and oxidation. Nodules were enriched in Fe, Mn, and P relative to the soil matrix making them an integral part...

The effects of land use on mineral flat wetland hydrologic processes in lowland agricultural catchments

Creator:: Marshall, Sarah M.
Abstract:: Hydrologic processes within mineral flat wetlands, along with their connections to groundwater and downstream surface water in lowland agricultural catchments are poorly understood, particularly under different land uses. In the three field studies included in this thesis, we examined infiltration, wetland hydroperiod, groundwater recharge dynamics, surface runoff generation, and water...

Butterfly and flower community composition among prairie-oak ecosystem habitats in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Powers, Breanna F.
Abstract:: Prairie-oak ecosystems in the Willamette Valley, Oregon have experienced habitat loss and degradation; most of these ecosystems are fragmented into smaller patches. Prairie-oak butterfly species, in the Willamette Valley, have decreased dramatically due to loss or degradation of habitat. More research is needed on sustaining the populations of butterflies in...

Highlights in the changing resource perception and land use of the Willamette River flood plain, Albany-Corvallis area

Creator:: Lewis, Anthony J.
Abstract:: Taking advantage of a favorable physical system but also risking the hazards of flooding, man has long occupied flood plain land. He has attempted to adjust rivers to his needs in order to reduce flood loss, but the rising cost of flood protection accompanied by an increase in flood damage...

Conserving avian diversity in agricultural systems : the role of isolated Oregon white oak legacy trees

Creator:: DeMars, Craig A.
Abstract:: Over one third of the earth’s land surface has been modified to some extent for agricultural purposes. The large global footprint of agriculture, combined with the knowledge that existing reserve networks are likely insufficient for long-term conservation of native biodiversity, has necessitated that agricultural systems contribute to conservation of native...

Bird Abundance and Microhabitat Associations with Oak Mistletoe in Willamette Valley Oak Woodlands

Creator:: Pritchard, Kyle R.
Abstract:: In the last 200 years there have been significant declines in the amount and structural complexity of oak-dominated forests and savannahs in the Pacific Northwest. Restoring oak systems often involves selectively thinning stands of oaks in order to reduce competition for sunlight. In choosing which trees to cut, land managers...
