A decision framework for the implementation of appropriate logging practices in developing countries : case study -- Ethiopia

Creator:: Spong, Ben
Abstract:: In many areas of the developing world, the continued overexploiting forest resources has the potential to have significant detrimental impacts be placed on sustainable forest management (SFM) can help communities and organizations responsibly manage and utilize the remaining forests over the long term. Ethiopia’s forest lands provide tangible benefits from...

Composition and variability of a Willakenzie map unit in Yamhill County, Oregon

Creator:: Kastens, Marilyn K.
Abstract:: The variability in morphologic, chemical, and physical soil properties within the Willakenzie silty clay loam, 2 to 12 percent slopes, map unit in Yamhill County, Oregon was measured. The objectives of the study included (1) describing the frequency distributions of individual soil properties, (2) measuring the taxonomic composition of the...

Microcomputer simulation for subsurface water potential on hillslope

Creator:: Malstaff, Greg
Abstract:: This research paper focuses upon subsurface flow because of its dominant influence on the other types of hilislope water flow processes. The basic theory of water movement is quickly discussed in order to build the reader's general background knowledge. With this background, the journey starts into the poorly understood realm...

The implementation of two distributed databases of water-related information

Creator:: Ward, Brian S.
Abstract:: One of the most pressing concerns in the Geographic Information Science community is the distribution of spatial datasets over the Internet. Two projects of the Department of Geosciences at Oregon State University are in the process of distributing data. The Oregon Coast Geospatial Clearinghouse was implemented with the goal of...

Sources and perceptions of controversy in establishing a protected area for biodiversity : a case study in the New River Area of Oregon

Creator:: Erickson, Dana C.
Abstract:: The process of land acquisition for the conservation of plants or wildlife habitat can raise controversial issues, issues often perceived differently by the individuals and groups involved. After the land acquisition process is completed, there is rarely an opportunity to analyze the differing perceptions of the issues and their relative...

Building and sharing spatial metaphors for the Catalogue of Oregon Marine and Coastal Information

Creator:: Cooper, Colin A.
Abstract:: Spatialization is an innovative way to expand searching capabilities for a marine/coastal reference database by using a metaphorical map framework to establish a sense of place for non-spatial information. Spatializing the Catalogue of Oregon Marine and Coastal Information (COMC1), a coastal reference database, enables the marine and coastal resource community...

Using an internet map server and coastal remote sensing for education

Creator:: Bower, Peter A.
Abstract:: An Internet Map Server (IMS) web site was constructed with the goal of helping middle- through high-school students learn about ocean processes. This IMS was developed in conjunction with the activities of the Science & Math Investigative Learning Experience (SMILE) program, and for eventual use with the Oregon Coastal Atlas,...

Using remote sensing, in situ observations, and geographic information systems to map benthic habitats at Heceta Bank, Oregon

Creator:: Whitmire, Curt E.
Abstract:: Dramatic declines in many species of demersal fishes off the West Coast have resulted in the designation of nine commercially important species as being overfished. While the causes of those declines are not clearly understood, the fact remains that a paucity of life history and abundance data exists for many...

Harnessing the power of Google Earth for seagrass conservation in the Comoros Islands

Creator:: Reifke, Lisa M.
Abstract:: Google Earth has given internet users the power of a virtual globe at their fingertips. It is a free, easy to use tool that avoids the need for technical training, and uses a simple, intuitive interface. For this reason, Google Earth appeals to general and more specialized users. This project...
