Creator:: Kaufmann, Philip Robert
Abstract:: Tracer-derived estimates of hydraulic resistance and transient hydraulic storage were related to measures of pool volume and channel morphometric variability in small streams of the Oregon coast, U.S.A. Fourteen 100 m study reaches in 3 streams were selected to compare channel and hydraulic characteristics in streams representing a time series...
Resource Type:: Dissertation

Creator:: Hurley, Michael D.
Abstract:: A framework is presented for a more causal explanation and ordering of stream characteristics than traditional means have used. Patterns of stream habitat distribution are related to particular characteristics of the geomorphology of watersheds. Variability in stream characteristics can be explained by the spatial distribution of properties of the watershed...

Creator:: May, Christine L.
Abstract:: Channels that were scoured to bedrock by debris flows provided unique opportunities to calculate the rate of sediment and wood accumulation, to make inferences about processes associated with input and transport of sediment, and to gain insight into the temporal succession of channel morphology following disturbance. In an intensive investigation...

Creator:: Heimann, David C.
Abstract:: This study investigated the long-term consequences of timber stand removal on the recruitment, physical characteristics, and spatial distribution of coarse woody debris in small (second- and third-order) streams of the Oregon Coast Range. A chronosequence of stream-stand systems, ranging from 21- to 140-years since disturbance (YSD), were sampled to determine...

Creator:: Banks, Janel
Abstract:: This research was designed to broaden the understanding of how timber-harvest affects aquatic macroinvertebrates in perennial and intermittent headwater streams. This study compared emergent and benthic macroinvertebrate assemblages from 20 headwater streams in the central Oregon Coast Range that varied by harvest condition and flow duration. Through comparison of the...
