Areal distribution, change, and restoration potential of wetlands within the lower Columbia River riparian zone, 1948-1991

Creator:: Allen, Tracy Hunter
Abstract:: The lower Columbia River (LCR) riparian zone is rich in habitat diversity. However, the natural beauty and species diversity along the river have increasingly become affected by human activity. This study quantifies the areal extent and degree of wetlands change and associated causes along the LCR over the past 44...

Biological control of purple loosestrife Lythrum salicaria (Lythraceae) : stability of control and integration with wetland management practices

Creator:: Schat, Marjolein
Abstract:: Purple loosestrife is a wetland perennial that came to the eastern seaboard of North America in ship ballast and raw wool in the 1800's. Since coming to the United States, it has spread across the country, forming dense monospecific stands in wetlands. Mechanical and chemical control was expensive and ineffective,...

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,...

A historical reconstruction and land use history of six tidal wetlands in Oregon

Creator:: Hennessey, Jennifer T.
Abstract:: This Master's Degree project is intended to document historical ecological conditions and land use histories during the past 150 years for selected Oregon watersheds and tidal wetland sites. The sites are the subject of current research into the ability of tidal wetlands to provide rearing habitat and prey for juvenile...

Oregon's wetland regulatory framework : A synthesis of approaches

Creator:: Wirth, Julie A.
Abstract:: This paper will address Oregon's ability to regulate and manage its wetland resources as a means for protecting and enhancing salmon habitat. After identifying the importance of wetland environments the paper will look into OWRF to assess its effectiveness. Ultimately the paper will conclude that OWRF's design is an effective...

Ecophenology and Control of European Frogbit in a Hybrid Cattail Marsh of the St. Marys River, Michigan

Creator:: Wellons, Kathryn C.
Abstract:: Great Lakes coastal wetland communities are threatened by the impacts of invasive plants on ecosystem function and biodiversity. What allows invasive plants to become dominant in invaded communities can be hard to define and context-dependent. Traits associated with invasion success in wetland systems – rapid vegetative growth, competitive superiority in...
