This is an integrated assessment across terrestrial, freshwater, and coastal marine realms. It includes the coast range of Oregon and Washington as well as Vancouver Island in British Columbia. The marine portion only includes the coastline and shallow subtidal; the next iteration will include the offshore component.
Climate warming is projected to affect forest water yields but the effects are expected to vary. We investigated how forest
type and age affect water yield resilience to climate warming. To answer this question, we examined the variability in historical
water yields at long-term experimental catchments across Canada and the...
Two ash-flow tuff units of the late Miocene-early Pliocene Deschute Formation in central Oregon were studied in detail because of the widespread distribution, diverse compositions, and stratigraphic importance.
The Lower Bridge tuff is a double-flow simple
cooling unit that is poorly welded. The upper flow grades from rhyolite in the...

The oldest strata present in the Swales Mountain area
are part of the Roberts Mountains allochthon. These include
the western-facies Ordovician Vinini Formation and unnamed
transitional-facies Devonian limestones. The Vinini Formation
comprises dark cherts and black to brown shales
deposited in a deep-water oceanic environment. The Devonian
limestones include numerous...

There is a lack of consensus regarding the roles of sulfide saturation versus volatile degassing on the partitioning of Cu and Ag during differentiation and eruption of convergent margin magmas. Because of their oxidized character, volatile-rich magmas from the Eastern Manus Back-arc Basin (EMBB) only reach sulfide saturation following magnetite-driven...

The purpose of this book is to
provide you with a bit more information about the organisms maintained at the ASLC so that you
may deepen your understanding and appreciation of them.
However, as a prelude to the more species-specific information contained in this document, there
are three short chapters...

This study demonstrates the utility of combining available scientific data with local ecological knowledge in a Geographic Information System (GIS) to support
community-based fisheries management. The approach used provides both the framework for capturing important ecological, economic and social information relevant to marine fisheries management, and also offers coastal citizens...

The Facey Rock area includes approximately 4 square miles in
the Eastern Paleozoic Subprovince of the Klamath Mountains north
of Callahan, California. The structurally complex terrain is composed
of sparcely fossiliferous Silurian graywacke, sparsely fossiliferous
Ordovician limestone, Devonian to Cretaceous chloritic
quartzite and minor gabbroic and dioritic intrusive rocks.
The...
