Characterization of fire effects on forest ecosystems in the Tillamook Forest, Oregon

Creator:: Chen, Shu-Huei
Abstract:: From the 1920's through 1951 several severe fires occurred in the predominantly conifer forest ecosystems of the northern Oregon Coast Range. Of the 211,151 ha. of mapped area, 57 percent was burned. The effects of frequent fires with high severity on forest ecosystems over time at the landscape level is...

Characterization of selected plant communities within the Tillamook Burn in northwestern Oregon

Creator:: Bailey, Arthur W.
Abstract:: A study was initiated in 1961 to characterize seral plant communities in a part of the Cedar Creek drainage in the Tillamook Burn. Stratification of vegetation into ecological units was a necessary first step in conifer-animal damage studies supported by the Oregon State Game Commission. Reconnaissance information was recorded in...

Tillamook Burn to Tillamook State Forest

Creator:: Oregon. Department of Forestry
Abstract:: Several generations of Oregonians carry memories of a series of forest fires so sweeping that they spurred an entire state into action. These fires created what was for a long time called the "Tillamook Burn" -- a wide swath of devastation cut through old growth forests in the Coast Range....

Dead wood dynamics and relationships to biophysical factors, forest history, ownership, and management practices in the Coastal Province of Oregon, USA

Creator:: Kennedy, Rebecca S.H.
Abstract:: Dead wood patterns and dynamics vary with biophysical factors, disturbance history, ownership, and management practices. Through field and modeling studies, I examined the current and potential future amounts of dead wood in two landscapes and region-wide in the Coastal Province of Oregon. The objectives of the first study were to...

Hydrology and delineation in four wetlands in the Oregon Cascades

Creator:: MacLeod, Norman A.
Abstract:: Four wetland sites were identified and delineated in Silver Falls State Park, Oregon using procedures outlined in the 1989 Federal Manual for the Identification and Delineation of Jurisdictional Wetlands and subsequently monitored for a ten month period. A network of 225 shallow (32") wells was installed throughout the sites to...

The Response and Effect of Emergent Coastal Vegetation to Sedimentation and the Distribution of Coastal Vegetation Communities along Environmental Gradients

Creator:: Lemein, Todd
Abstract:: Coastal marsh vegetation is an important component in maintaining marsh stability that is threatened by changes in sedimentation, sea level rise, natural and anthropogenic disturbances, and competition from invasive species. Vegetation has been demonstrated to reduce wave energy, increase sedimentation, and decrease erosion in tidal environments under a range of...

Understory herb and shrub responses to root trenching, pre-commercial thinning, and canopy closure in Douglas-fir forest of the western Cascades, Oregon

Creator:: Lindh, Briana C.
Abstract:: This thesis examines factors limiting understory herb presence and flowering in young second-growth Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii) forests on the west side of the Cascade Mountains, Oregon, USA. I studied the belowground effects of canopy trees on understory herbs and shrubs in old-growth forests using trenched plots from which tree roots...

Analysis and prediction of patterns in lichen communities over the western Oregon landscape

Creator:: Peterson, Eric B.
Abstract:: The diverse lichen flora of the Pacific Northwest is being impacted by population growth and by forest management practices. Accumulating information about our lichen flora will improve our conservation strategies. This dissertation first collects information to improve our understanding of how lichen communities vary among forests of differing structure, and...

A preliminary classification of forest communities in the central portion of the western Cascades in Oregon

Creator:: Dyrness, C. T., Franklin, Jerry F., Moir, William H., and U.S. International Biological Program. Coniferous Forest Biome
Abstract:: Forest communities in the central portion of Oregon's western Cascades are arrayed along moisture and temperature gradients. With the aid of reconnaissance data and a computerized ordination technique, 23 forest communities have been provisionally recognized in two distinct forest zones, the Tsuga heterophylla (300 to 1050 m in elevation) and...
