Habitat use and densities of cavity-nesting birds in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Nelson, S. Kim
Abstract:: I studied abundance patterns and habitat use of eight cavitynesting bird species in the Coast Ranges of Western Oregon during the spring and summer of 1985 and 1986. Three age classes of unmanaged Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) stands were selected for study: young (40-80 yrs), mature (80-200 yrs), and old-growth (>200...

Bird-habitat relationships at multiple spatial resolutions in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Brooks, Jonathan P.
Abstract:: I analyzed the relationship between avian abundance and landscape structure at five spatial resolutions for 30 subbasins in the central Oregon Coast Range using remotely sensed data and a geographic information system (GIS). I developed maps of forest successional stages from Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) data at a spatial resolution...

Birds of the Coast Range of Lincoln County, Oregon : v. 1. Birds of Thornton Creek

Creator:: Faxon, Darrel and Bayer, Range D., 1947-
Abstract:: Incidental to his outdoor activities such as farming, fern-picking, and horse logging, Darrel Faxon made 17.4 years of detailed observations at Thornton Creek during 1973-1990. He determined bird presence, not bird abundance, and made about 99,800 records, where a record is one bird species found during one day. Depending upon...

Habitat associations of small mammals and amphibians in the central Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Martin, Karl J.
Abstract:: One of the goals of ecosystem management is to integrate management of many species and processes across a range of temporal and spatial scales. I investigated the relationship between small mammals and amphibians at 3 spatial scales. My objective was to identify, habitat associations of forest floor vertebrates at the...

Habitat classification and characteristics of small mammal and amphibian communities in beaver-pond habitats of the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Suzuki, Nobuya
Abstract:: During 1988-1989, stream habitat variables were compared between beaver-dam sites and unoccupied-stream sites to identify variables that may have been important for beaver (Castor canadensis) in selecting dam sites in the streams of the Drift Creek basin, Lincoln County, Oregon. Increasing valley floor width and grass/sedge cover and decreasing stream...

Relationship between landscape structure and avian abundance patterns in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: McGarigal, Kevin
Abstract:: Human-induced fragmentation of forests is increasing, yet the consequences of these landscape changes to vertebrate communities are poorly understood. Despite progress in our understanding of how bird communities respond to forest fragmentation caused by agricultural or urban development, we have little understanding of these dynamics in landscapes undergoing intensive forest...

Abundance, habitat association, and foraging ecology of American dippers and other riparian-associated wildlife in the Oregon Coast Range

Creator:: Loegering, John P., 1964-
Abstract:: To quantify the distribution and abundance of the riparian-associated vertebrate community, I surveyed streams in four basins in the Oregon Coast Range, 1992-1994. I observed mostly birds with fewer observations of mammals. Belted Kingfishers (Ceryle alcyon), American Dippers (Cinclus mexicanus), Great Blue Herons (Ardea herodias), and Mallards (Anus plalyrhynchos) comprised...

Factors limiting the distribution of the sensitive lichen Usnea longissima in the Oregon Coast Range : habitat or dispersal?

Creator:: Keon, Dylan B.
Abstract:: The sensitive lichen Usnea longissima Ach., formerly a fairly common circumboreal species, has been extirpated from much of its range (e.g., Eastern Europe). Although the U.S. Pacific Northwest (PNW) remains a relative stronghold for the species, U longissima faces increasing pressure in the region from habitat loss, air pollution, and...

Channel morphology and hydraulic characteristics of torrent-impacted forest streams in the Oregon Coast Range, U.S.A.

Creator:: Kaufmann, Philip Robert
Abstract:: Tracer-derived estimates of hydraulic resistance and transient hydraulic storage were related to measures of pool volume and channel morphometric variability in small streams of the Oregon coast, U.S.A. Fourteen 100 m study reaches in 3 streams were selected to compare channel and hydraulic characteristics in streams representing a time series...

Bird communities in managed conifer stands in the Oregon Cascades : habitat associations and nest predation

Creator:: Vega, Robyn M. S.
Abstract:: Green-tree retention is being implemented on state and federal lands in Oregon. Silvicultural prescriptions with tree and snag retention are thought to mimic natural disturbance patterns in the Pacific Northwest more closely than traditional silvicultural practices, which reduce structural complexity. The effects of green-tree retention on native bird species in...
