Oregon's estuaries are important ecosystems for scientific study. Consequently, knowledge of what research has been conducted helps us identify benchmarks and plan new projects. A comprehensive bibliography of published research, technical reports, local documents, and data sets is one means of recording this knowledge. For these reasons, the Guin Library...

The morphology and genesis of soils of the Willamette series
and of some Willamette-associated soils and their relationships to
geomorphic surfaces were studied in an area near McCoy, Polk
County, Oregon. Influences of regional extent, such as climate and
parent material, were related to the soils and landforms. The soils...
Fires affect animals mainly through effects on their habitat. Fires often cause short-term increases in wildlife foods that contribute to increases in populations of some animals. These increases are moderated by the animals’ ability to thrive in the altered, often simplified, structure of the postfire environment. The extent of fire...
