The late Oligocene Yaquina Formation is exposed in an arcuate outcrop pattern which extends along the central Oregon Coast from
Siletz Bay on the north to Seal Rock on the south. Maximum inland extent of the Yaquina outcrop is :five miles. Maximum thickness of the Yaquina Formation is 2, 000...

Simplifying stand structure to reduce fuel density is a high priority for forest managers; however, affects to Pacific marten (Martes caurina) movement and connectivity are unknown. We evaluated whether thinning forests to reduce fuels influenced movements of Pacific marten. We collected movement paths from 22 martens using global positioning system...
Climate change is arguably the greatest challenge to conservation of our time. Most vulnerability assessments rely on past and current species distributions to predict future persistence but ignore species’ abilities to disperse through landscapes, which may be particularly important in fragmented habitats and crucial for long-term persistence in changing environments....
Ecological niche theory holds that species distributions are shaped by a large and complex suite of interacting factors. Species distribution models (SDMs) are increasingly used to describe species’ niches and predict the effects of future environmental change, including climate change. Currently, SDMs often fail to capture the complexity of species’...
Widespread, rapid, drought-, and infestation-triggered tree mortality is emerging as a phenomenon affecting forests globally and may be linked to increasing temperatures and drought frequency and severity. The ecohydrological consequences of forest die-off have been little studied and remain highly uncertain. To explore this knowledge gap, we apply the extensive...
More than 200 sites between 500 and 2000 meters elevation
were examined utilizing a reconnaissance sampling technique for a
portion of the eastern slopes of the northern Oregon Cascade Mountains.
Twelve different forested plant communities were described
with data on vegetation, soils and topography. A map of their distribution
and...
