Using Satellite Imagery to Count Nesting Albatross from Space

Creator:: Dolliver, Jane E.
Abstract:: One fundamental concern in conservation biology is species abundance. For many taxa, however, these data are costly to obtain via direct observation and thus limited in geographic or temporal scope. Very high-resolution satellite imagery provides a means to address these limitations and provide remotely-sensed counts of large, colonial species. We...

Precipitation-snowmelt timing and snowmelt augmentation of large peak flow events, western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Jennings, Keith S.
Abstract:: Despite advances in the understanding of rain-on-snow storms and their resulting peak flows, little is understood about the response of snowmelt to precipitation and the relative timing of the two at multiple temporal scales within such events. To address this issue, climate, snowmelt, and streamflow data were analyzed for 26...

Evaluation of instream flow restoration targets and the carrying capacity of Oncorhynchus mykiss according to temperature, Whychus Creek, Deschutes Basin, Oregon

Creator:: Jones, Lesley M.
Abstract:: The Pelton Round Butte Hydroelectric Project (Oregon) was built between 1957 and 1964. As a result the anadromous steelhead trout was extirpated from the upper Deschutes Basin by 1968. The Deschutes Basin is a model for instream flow restoration projects in the Pacific Northwest that are largely driven by the...

Mapping vegetation using landsat TM and ETM+ in Eritrea

Creator:: Iyob, Biniam
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to examine vegetation and vegetation change in Eritrea over a period from the mid 1980s to 2002 using satellite remote sensing, and relate observed changes to the recent history of drought and war in the region. Specific objectives were (1) to examine vegetation change...

Eastward Routing of Glacial Lake Agassiz Runoff caused the Younger Dryas Cold Event

Creator:: Leydet, David J.
Abstract:: The purpose of this thesis is to analyze an abrupt case of climate change in the past as a means to understand the mechanisms that force climate change. By looking to past analogs of climate change, we hopefully will gain an understanding of these events, which could be used to...

Automated web-based analysis and visualization of spatiotemporal data

Creator:: Keon, Dylan B.
Abstract:: Most data are associated with a place, and many are also associated with a moment in time, a time interval, or another linked temporal component. Spatiotemporal data (i.e., data with elements of both space and time) can be used to assess movement or change over time in a particular location,...

Quantitative, multi-spectral, light-transmission imaging of colloid transport in porous media at the meso scale

Creator:: Kraft, Erika Lorna
Abstract:: Colloids, particles smaller than ten microns in diameter, are ubiquitous in the subsurface. Colloids have an effect on the transport of contaminants that bind to their surfaces, and can reduce the permeability of aquifer materials through deposition. Some microorganisms, including pathogens, are also transported in the subsurface as colloids. The...

Searching for Early Archaeological Sites Along the Central Oregon Coast: A Case Study From Neptune State Park (35LA3), Lane County, Oregon

Creator:: Jenevein, Steven A.
Abstract:: Locating archaeological sites that predate the arrival of modern sea level has been difficult along the Oregon coast. This is in part believed to be the result of geologic processes that have influenced the preservation, distribution, and visibility of sites within the Oregon coastal landscape. Because of these changes, researchers...

Simulating vegetation shifts and carbon cycling in Yosemite National Park

Creator:: Conklin, David R.
Abstract:: The vegetation in Yosemite National Park changed during the 20th century and may change in the 21st century in response to climate change. Vegetation surveys made during the 1930s and the 1990s provide benchmark records separated by 60 years. This study uses the MC1 dynamic global vegetation model to forecast...

Measurement and modeling the physical controls of snowmelt in the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Mazurkiewicz, Adam B.
Abstract:: The physical controls of snowmelt in the Pacific Northwest (PNW) are poorly understood. While there have been numerous field and modeling investigations at the plot and watershed scale, few studies have identified how the snow energy balance (EB) components vary in importance both spatially and temporally. The identification of how...
