Wildlife habitat mapping has evolved at a rapid pace over the last few decades. Beginning with simple, often subjective,
hand-drawn maps, habitat mapping now involves complex species distribution models (SDMs) using
mapped predictor variables derived from remotely sensed data. For species that inhabit large geographic areas,
remote sensing technology is...
These datasets were used in the prospective meta-analysis of northern spotted owl reproductive rates over 25 years across 11 study areas located throughout the range of the owl. A multi-state occupancy file was created by collapsing site-specific information on owl reproductive status into bimonthly (2 per month) survey occasions. These...

Estimates of species' vital rates and an understanding of the factors affecting those parameters over time and space can provide crucial information for management and conservation. We used mark–recapture, reproductive output, and territory occupancy data collected during 1985–2013 to evaluate population processes of Northern Spotted Owls (Strix occidentalis caurina) in...
The City of Waldport, Oregon, has been periodically exposed to the
effects of marine flooding and erosion. Consequent to the erosion of the
Alsea Bay sandspit during the fall of 1985, one Waldport residential neighborhood
was faced with the imminent threat of serious marine flood inundation.
This study includes a...
Many studies suggest that weedy plant species are most successful when
soil nitrogen in abundant. Consequently, I used soil nitrogen manipulations to
determine if altering nitrogen would affect the establishment of both weedy and
native plant species in a western Oregon wetland prairie. In two studies, we
added carbon amendments...
I studied the water relations traits, twig conductivity, C'3 isotopic composition,
and wood density of three conifer and five angiosperm species in western Oregon. This
study took place from spring 2002 to fall 2003 on four sites. Species were selected to
represent the diversity of drought tolerance of woody plants...
