Historic fires in the central Western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Burke, Constance J.
Abstract:: The history of fire between 1850 and 1977 in a portion of the Willamette National Forest in-the central Western Cascades of Oregon was documented using historical sources. Three types of records were available: (1) records and writings not primarily concerned with fire but yielding information about fire in context with...

Analyzing fire mosaics in temperate coniferous forests with GIS and remote sensing

Creator:: Kushla, John D.
Abstract:: This investigation on fire mosaics addressed several aspects: (1) quantifying the role of terrain variables in fire-related mortality and historical mean fire return interval (MFRI), (2) comparing post-burn Landsat Thematic Mapper (TM) imagery, TM difference imagery, and aerial photo interpretation to map forest survival after wildfire, and (3) to describe...

Development of two coniferous stands impacted by multiple, partial fires in the Oregon Cascades : establishment history and the spatial patterns of colonizing tree species relative to old-growth remnant trees

Creator:: Goslin, Matthew N.
Abstract:: Trees that survive disturbances can form a prominent legacy which may influence post-disturbance successional pathways. The effects of biological legacies on community dynamics is a critical question in ecology. In the present study, I examined two mapped stands in which old-growth remnant trees, survivors of partial fires, emerge above a...

Buffer strip dynamics in the Western Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Sherwood, Kim
Abstract:: Although buffer strips have long been used as a protection tool when logging near streams, long-term studies investigating buffer strip dynamics are rare. Steinblums et al. (1984) inventoried 40 buffer strips 1 to 15 years old in the western Oregon Cascades beginning in the summer of 1975. Numerous site and...

Skyline thinning production and costs : experience from the Willamette Young Stand Project

Creator:: Kellogg, L. D. (Loren D.), Miller, Mark E., Olsen, Eldon D., and Oregon State University. Forest Research Laboratory
Abstract:: Production rates and costs for skyline harvesting were examined over a range of residual thinning intensities, operational methods, and sites. The sites included three stands of 40- to 50-yr-old Douglas-fir on the Willamette National Forest in the Cascade Mountains of Oregon. Three silvicultural treatments were studied at two sites, and...

Meadow classification in the Willamette National Forest and conifer encroachment patterns in the Chucksney-Grasshopper meadow complex, Western Cascade Range, Oregon

Creator:: Dailey, Michele Meadows
Abstract:: This study delineates and characterizes the distribution of montane meadows in the Willamette National Forest, identifies encroachment patterns in relation to topographic features and proximity to trees in the Chucksney-Grasshopper meadow complex, and examines tree species and age distributions in relation to distance from forest edges or isolated tree clusters...

Transportation planning on the Willamette National Forest

Creator:: Nesmith, William Paul
Abstract:: The objective of this study is to answer four questions concerning the transportation network on the Willamette National Forest. These questions are 1) how many and what kind of roads exist on the forest, 2) how much annual traffic can these existing roads handle, 3) can the existing system handle...
