The Applegate Fire Plan is a collaborative effort, hatched from an idea that was developed jointly by local citizens and federal agency folks in the Spring of 2001. Due to wide-spread participation throughout the Applegate Valley, general project coordination was organized by the Applegate Partnership, a non-profit communitybased group founded...
To examine the influence of forest management on wildlife immunity, the innate immune system of wild deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) inhabiting forest plots of different management intensities in the Oregon coast range was measured by bactericidal assay. Bactericidal activity was compared across three management levels, including 40-50 year old forest...

We conducted this 2-year study to determine if lesser prairie-chickens Tympanuchus pallidicinctus and ring-necked pheasants Phasianus colchicus used the same habitats where their ranges overlapped in southwestern Kansas. Telemetry locations of 50 transmitter-equipped lesser prairie-chickens and 28 pheasants were used to monitor habitat use by the two species. Additionally, vegetation...
Invertebrates are an important food source for grouse chicks, especially within the first 2 weeks of life. Invertebrate abundance is highly patchy and dependent upon herbaceous cover and vegetation structure. We examined the relationship between invertebrate biomass (from sweepnet samples) and habitat structure at lesser prairie-chicken (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus) brood-use and...
We used mark-recapture methods to estimate age-specific apparent survival rates for male Lesser Prairie-Chickens (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus), a gamebird of conservation concern. A total of 311 male prairie-chickens (135 yearlings, 176 adults) were captured and banded during a 5-year study in southwest Kansas. Time-since-marking models were used to estimate apparent survival...
The ability to ascertain gender and age of juvenile grouse is essential for determining gender-specific population age structure and studying timing of reproductive events, respectively. We examined outer rectrix feathers from juvenile Lesser Prairie-Chickens (Tympanuchus pallidicinctus) captured at 30–40 and 50–60 days post-hatching. Blood samples were collected from most chicks...
These documents resulted from a summer 2013 internship for a OSU Systems Engineering student. Mr. Applegate was charged with documenting the existing seawater system at the Hatfield Marine Science Center and recommending efficiency upgrades. He produced a written report with various appendices containing system documentation and recommendations and a map....

Introduction
The
Excavation of two archeological sites, 353A47 and 35JA49,
in the upper Applegate River Valley of southwestern Oregon was
conducted in 1978 by the Department of Anthropology, Oregon State
University. Site 353A47 is a multi-component site, of which only
the late-prehistoric stratum, containing one complete and two
partial housepits and a...
