Vegetation composition and response to fire of native Willamette Valley wetland prairies

Creator:: Pendergrass, Kathy L. (Connelly)
Abstract:: Fires set by Native Americans were important in shaping and maintaining Willamette Valley prairie plant communities. With fire exclusion after Euro-American settlement in the 1840's, composition of the remaining prairies shifted toward shrub and tree dominance with a concomitant decline in endemic prairie plant populations. I hypothesize that by restoring...

Ni-les’tun tidal wetland restoration effectiveness monitoring: Baseline: 2010-2011

Creator:: Brophy, Laura S. and van de Wetering, Stan
Abstract:: This report describes results of baseline monitoring at the Ni-les’tun tidal wetland restoration site, Bandon National Wildlife Refuge, Coquille River estuary of Oregon. Baseline monitoring provides a basis for comparison to post-restoration conditions, allowing future determination of project effectiveness. The report focuses on 2010-2011 baseline data, but it also includes...

Vegetation ecology and net primary productivity of selected freshwater wetlands in Oregon

Creator:: Boss, Theodore R. (Theodore Robert)
Abstract:: Vegetation ecology of eight Oregon freshwater wetlands was described and net aerial primary productivity estimated in four wetlands. Plant cover samples were used to classify 37 wetland and 11 terrestrial communities by agglomerative hierarchical clustering. Samples and species were ordinated. Direct measurements were made of sample relative elevation, inundation duration,...

Vegetation as Impacted by Soil Characteristics and Moisture in a Conservation Wetland, Willamette Valley, OR

Creator:: Aslan, Fevziye
Abstract:: Wetland degradation has negative influences on wetland functions and services. The understanding of wetland functions requires the intersection of two science disciplines, ecohydrology and plant physiology for a correct approach on wetland restoration and management. Although studies assessing ecohydrological relationships to protect wetlands are relatively common, studies evaluating both ecohydrological...

The Influence of fire on the Radiocarbon Signature and Character of Soil Organic Matter in the Siskiyou National Forest, Oregon, USA

Creator:: Heckman, Katherine, Campbell, John, Powers, Heath, Law, Beverly, and Swanston, Chris
Abstract:: Forest fires contribute a significant amount of CO₂ to the atmosphere each year, and CO₂ emissions from fires are likely to increase under projected conditions of global climate change. In addition to volatilizing aboveground biomass and litter layers, forest fires have a profound effect on belowground carbon (C) pools and...

Understanding natural wetlands

Creator:: Oregon State University. Extension Service, Smith, Dawn, and Moore, James A. (James Allan), 1939-
Abstract:: Marsh, bog, swamp, slough, fen–these are just a few of the names commonly applied to the class of natural habitats called "wetlands." Broadly defined, wetlands are land areas that have a prolonged high water table or at least are covered with shallow water. As a transition habitat between dry land...

Giant gartersnake spatial ecology in agricultural and constructed wetlands

Creator:: Valcarcel, Patricia M.
Abstract:: The spatial ecology of a species is a vital component of informed management and restoration plans, yet little is known about how animals use restored or constructed habitat. We assessed home ranges, core areas, and habitat selection of the federally threatened Giant Gartersnake (Thamnophis gigas) using rice agricultural habitat and...

History, Current Conditions, and Wetland Restoration at Killin Wetlands Natural Area, Washington County, Oregon

Creator:: Christy, John A.
Abstract:: In September 2014, the Metro Natural Area Program engaged The Wetland Conservancy to develop a scientific assessment of Metro’s 590-acre Killin Wetlands Natural Area. Metro acquired the lands comprising the KWNA between 2000 and 2012 with funds from two voter approved open space bond measures. Since 2000, Metro has sought...
