    Creator:
    Waye, Heather L.
    Abstract:
    While there are many more species of reptiles in the tropics than in temperate latitudes, relatively little is known about the natural history of tropical species of snakes.

  • Relationships among in-stream physical habitat, land use, and geology in small coastal streams of northern Oregon

    Creator:
    Scott, Larissa E.
    Abstract:
    Salmonid populations in the Pacific Northwest are at historic lows and many populations continue to decline. Previous studies have linked salmonid declines to land use through degradation of in-stream physical habitat, but few of these studies have taken geology into consideration. This study relates habitat parameters known to be important...

  • Environmental variables as predictors of fish assemblages in the Tillamook Basin, Oregon

    Creator:
    Rose, Cathleen E.
    Abstract:
    The Tillamook and Kilchis subbasins of the Tillamook Bay watershed (Oregon Coast Range) have differences in geology and land use history and, therefore, varied environmental conditions that could affect fish assemblages. Fifty-two randomly selected wadeable stream reaches in these two subbasins were surveyed for stream habitat and fish assemblage composition...
