This dataset contains records of identified benthic and aquatic emergent invertebrates from pre-timber harvest, post-timber harvest, and reference (no harvest) collection sites in the Hinkle Creek watershed. A variety of fish-bearing tributaries, fishless tributaries, and mainstem creek sites were sampled. Benthic invertebrates were collected using Serber nets and emergent adults...
Experiments were conducted to determine survival, growth, and accumulation of HEOD (major component of dieldrin) in the tissues of steelhead trout (Salmo gairdneri) embryos, alevins, and fry exposed to dieldrin concentrations ranging from 0.012 to 52 ppb. The fish were held in specially designed exposure chambers provided with continuously renewed...
Project AFS-58 Final Report (part 3). The final of three reports on a 15-year study to determine the effects of logging on the aquatic resources of three tributaries of the lower Alsea River. The study took place from 1959-1973. Primary objectives included in-depth study of population characteristics of fish species...

Rivers impacted by human activities often have multiple stressors present. The effects of multiple stressors on biological communities can often be difficult to predict, due to the potential for complex interactions between stressors and communities. This thesis explores the impacts of two stressors often associated with agricultural land use, increased...
Honey bees (Apis mellifera) are responsible for approximately $17 billion in crop production per year in the United States, and are arguably the most important pollinators in the nation. The future of crop pollination and production is threatened by widespread national honey bee colony losses, which have averaged approximately 30%...
