    John Strong Newberry, MD (1822-1892) Stuart G. Garrett, MD Bend, Oregon t the age of 33 John Strong Newberry became assistant surgeon and geologist on the 1855 War Department railroad survey. Led by Williamson and AAbbot, the mission of the expedition was to find a location for a railroad link between the San Francisco Bay area and the Columbia River, tying together the western termini of the proposed Transcontinental Railroads between the San Francisco Bay area and the Columbia River. The connec- tion was finally completed in 1927, crossing the Cascades just south of the current highway across Willamette Pass. At the time it was called Pengra Pass. As one of the first well-trained scientists to travel through much of Oregon, Newberry made many discov- eries in botany, paleontology and geology, especially in eastern Oregon. He was the first scientist to accurately interpret the drowned forests of the Columbia River as being due to landslides damming the river. (First noted by Lewis and Clark in 1807, these submerged snags are in the Columbia River between Cascade Locks and The Dalles.) Newberry was one of the first two geologists to recognize the power of water erosion in sculpting land- scapes, then known as fluvialism (O’Conner 2018). He correctly observed and interpreted glacial activity in the Cascade Mountains: “All the projecting points and ridges of the older trap rock were worn down, smoothed off, and cut by deep furrows, which now pointed northeast toward the centre of the mountain mass formed by the Three Sisters … there is little doubt that all this surface was once covered, not simply by lines of ice following the valleys, but by a continuous sheet.” He corresponded with Portrait of John Strong Newberry.

B. 2019. Golden eagles (Aquila chrysaetos) nesting in Oregon, 2011–2018: Annual Report, 20 February 2019. Oregon Eagle Foundation, Inc., Klamath Falls, Oregon, USA. POPULARIZED INTRODUCTION & SUMMARY The golden eagle (Aquila chrysaetos) is found throughout the Northern Hemisphere. In North America, it occurs from the arctic to central Mexico and is one of the largest North American raptors. In Oregon, golden eagles occur statewide and are most common in the eastern half of the state. Migrant golden eagles from other areas visit the state in the winter, while nesting pairs mostly appear to be year-round residents. Golden eagles take five years to attain full-adult plumage and can breed prior to that. Subadult golden eagles can stay close to their natal areas as they mature or may travel great distances from where they were hatched, or both. Non-breeding golden eagles from Oregon may visit surrounding states, and those from surrounding states may spend time in Oregon. There were no statewide research projects on golden eagles nesting in Oregon until this study. The project was initiated in 2011 because of concerns about the effects of energy development on the species. The goal of this work is to find as many golden eagle nests in the state as possible each nesting season (February through July) to document nest use and determine how many eaglets are raised each year.

  • Biological Soil Crust Survey, Rome Cliff Areas
    Biological Soil Crust Survey - Rome Cliffs Area, T31S, R41E, Sec. 32, Malheur County, Oregon Original prepared for the Bureau of Land Management Oregon State Office January 28, 2010 (Revisions, additions – September 1, 2016) Ann DeBolt 2032 South Crystal Way Boise, ID 83706 [email protected] Abstract During a 2009 biological soil crust survey of the Rome Cliffs area in southeast Oregon, forty-six species of lichens, bryophytes, and cyanobacteria taxa were identified. Of the 46 taxa, there were 38 lichens (36 on soil, 1 on wood, 1 on pebbles), 6 bryophytes (mosses/liverworts; soil), and 2 cyanobacteria (soil). The lichen Placidium acarosporoides is reported as new for Oregon. Heteroplacidium congestum, Lecidea laboriosa, and Acarospora obpallens, each collected during this Rome Cliffs survey, have been reported one other time from Oregon, all from Deschutes County, and all by different collectors over a period of 40+ years. Soil types and vegetation differed considerably among the four study plots, as reflected by the biological soil crusts, with up to eleven taxa unique to one of the plots. Overall biological soil crust diversity ranged from 14 to 26 species per 1 acre plot. This survey exemplifies the diversity and richness found within this micro-flora, and illustrates just how poorly known it is. Introduction The Rome Cliffs Area and associated zeolite deposits are located in the vicinity of Rome, Oregon, approximately 130 km southwest of the town of Vale. Neogene and Quaternary volcanic and sedimentary rocks are the primary outcroppings in this area (Sheppard 1987). The zeolites and associated minerals occur in a sequence of alluvial and lacustrine volcaniclastic rocks known informally as the Rome beds (Sheppard 1987).
