Abstract:: Straw wattles are common erosion control devices used to trap sediment. This thesis studies the relationship of straw wattles on slope stability through a case study demonstrating their use on steep slopes (1.5H:1V) for the US20 highway realignment project. Several surficial slope failures have occurred on these fill slopes, often...

Creator:: Appt, Jeremy
Abstract:: A landslide inventory, statistical analyses and a Geographic Information System (GIS) are used to analyze landslide sites and potentially unstable terrain in the Oregon Coast Range. The objectives are to evaluate the efficacy of locating landslide sites with topographic variables and discriminate the difference between sites where landslides have and...

Creator:: Bransom, Mark
Abstract:: Six headwalls in the central Oregon coast range were selected for study of soil engineering properties and vegetativecharacteristics important for analysis of slope stability. The headwalls were considered representative of those which would be candidates for timber leave areas due to geomorphic and topographic features, including steepness of slope and...

Creator:: Woelke, Franziska
Abstract:: The John Day Reservoir, a large reservoir between the John Day and the McNary Dams on the Columbia River, must be lowered several feet below design level during salmon migration season in order to preserve anadromous fish habitat. This research assessed the north shore of the John Day Reservoir for...

Creator:: Flint, Benjamin R.
Abstract:: The development of bioenergy from biomass has dominated the minds of forest engineering researchers over the last decade. One of the main themes that has been generated from that research is that bioenergy from biomass has major operational hurdles to overcome before becoming economically feasible. More directly, the impact of...

Creator:: Murillo, Michelle L.
Abstract:: A simple debris-slide model, employing a digital elevation model (DEM) and geological data, was used in a geographic information system (GIS) to map slope stability in the Andrews Experimental Forest, located in the western Cascade Range in Oregon, USA. To evaluate the contribution of error in elevation to the uncertainty...
