Abstract
  • This report discusses major characteristics of western Oregon’s lowland rivers, streams, and estuaries that the IMST finds to be important to wild salmonids. IMST describes how landscape scale factors (landscape structure, landscape function, disturbance regimes, and landscape scale biological processes) historically supported salmonid populations in western Oregon lowlands. The report also covers human modifications to these ecosystems that impact salmonids. IMST assesses how lowland land use practices may have altered lowland systems so that the landscape’s ability to support healthy salmonid populations was reduced. Finally, IMST discusses how functioning lowland ecosystems might be protected and restored. The geographic scope of this report is the lowland portion of Oregon west of the crest of the Cascade Range. This area stretches from the lower Columbia River south to the Siskiyou Mountains and includes estuaries, coastal lakes, and alluvial rivers and valleys that provide potential habitat for wild salmonids. In addition to major rivers, this report covers the many small tributaries and streams in western Oregon lowlands.
  • This report was prepared by the Independent Multidisciplinary Science Team to the Oregon Plan for Salmon and Watersheds.
