Jackson County, Oregon is noted for the production of high quality
pears. It is the fourth leading pear producing county in the United
States and is the number one producer of winter pears. This thesis
analyzes in detail the many aspects of the pear industry in the county.
Climate, soils,...
The Forest Homestead Act of 1906 precipitated one of the final rushes for free
land in American history. A nascent land management agency, the USDA Forest
Service, created a systematized process for the review and documentation of purported
forest homestead claims. One hundred years later, the forest-homestead examination
files of...

An investigation was conducted to determine the origin of
Mima mounds in Jackson County, Oregon and Thurston County,
Washington. Data on soil morphology, mineralogy, and particle
size distribution were used to test the periglacial ice wedge hypothesis,
the gopher hypothesis, the erosional hypothesis, and the
loess hypothesis.
The results of...

Planting trees in riparian areas is increasingly common in Oregon as part
of efforts to improve fish habitat, water quality, and other riparian functions. Yet tree survival and growth are poor in many projects, and some fail outright.
Despite the belief that fuels management, a form of prescribed fire that reduces accumulated fuels in commercially thinned forests, is necessary to restore forest 'health' in the Pacific Northwest, its effects on wildlife has received little attention in the scientific literature. Because fuels management is supported, funded, and implemented nationwide...
The population of Catostomus rimiculus from Jenny Creek basin is identified as a dwarfed derivative of the normally much larger C. rimiculus from the Klamath and Rogue River systems. C. rimiculus in Jenny Creek basin are separated from those in the Klamath by a series of 3-10m waterfalls resulting from...
An adequate soil fertility program will pay big dividends in the production of field corn, providing the recommended variety is seeded, weeds and other pests are controlled, and an adequate moisture level is maintained. Corn effectively uses the nitrogen built up by alfalfa or clover and the nutrients supplied by...
Alfalfa will out-yield other hay crops on deep, well-drained sot*in southern
Oregon. Irrigation is necessary for top yields, though good yietdcilpf either hay or seed can be expected without irrigation on deep soils with good moistureholding capacity. In addition to an adequate fertilizer program, these points are important for successful...
The purpose of this qualitative phenomenological study was to explore the successes of first generation, community college transfer students served by a TRiO/Student Support Services (TRiO/SSS) program. This study addresses a specific problem in higher education – there are a limited number of first generation transfer students who successfully matriculate...
In contrast with other Odocoileus species, Columbian black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) population dynamics are not well understood throughout the species’ range. Concerns over apparent long-term population declines have prompted efforts to fill basic knowledge gaps including estimates of vital rates (fecundity, recruitment and survival) and cause-specific mortality. The Oregon...
Climate change is expected to increase the occurrence of many climate-related natural hazards. Confidence that the risk of heat waves will increase is very high given strong evidence in the peer-reviewed literature, consistency among the projections of different global climate models, and robust scientific principles that explain why temperatures increase...
