  • Coarse Woody Debris in Streams of the Drift Creek Basin, Oregon by Curt N. Veldhuisen a THESIS Oregon State University in Partia
    Coarse Woody Debris in Streams of the Drift Creek Basin, Oregon by Curt N. Veldhuisen A THESIS submitted to Oregon State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Completed February 20, 1990 Commencement June 1990 AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Curt N. Veldhuisenfor the degree of Master of Science in Forest Engineeringpresented on February 27, 1990. Title: Coarse Woody Debris in Streams of the Drift Creek Basin. Oregon Abstract Approved: Robert L. Beschta This study examined the occurrence ofcoarse woody debris (i.e., pieces greater than 0.15m in diameter and 2.0 m in length) in first- through fifth-order streams located within the Drift Creek Basin of the Oregon Coast Range. Nine "tributary reachest were surveyed to determine how three land management treatments (undisturbed, patch clearcut with buffer strip, and entirely clearcut) and/or geomorphologywere associated with CWD loadings or piece characteristics. An additional 45 km of third- to fifth-order channelswere surveyed to identify CWD distribution patternsover changing stream size. All surveys recorded channel characteristics and the dimensions and attributes ofeach CWD piece. Coarse woody debris loadings varied greatly (11 to 62 pieces/lOOm, 0.3 to 4.3 m3/100m2 of inchannelvolume) between the tributary reaches, but were not significantly (p > 0.10) related to harvest treatment. However, reaches associated with clearcut treatment containedless hardwood CWD and pieces were significantly shorter, and more decayed than in the other treatments. This suggested that little CWD recruitment had occurred in the 15 to 20 years since harvest. The undisturbed and buffer strip tributaries contained CWD that reflected continued recruitment of both hardwood and conifer trees.

  • Ecosystem Use by Indigenous People in an Oregon Coastal Landscape
    3220 Donald B. Zobel, Department of Botany and Plant Pathology, Oregon State University, Corvallis, Oregon 97331- 2902 e-mail: [email protected] Ecosystem Use by Indigenous People in an Oregon Coastal Landscape Abstract Data regarding probable uses of biological materials by the indigenous people of the Salmon River-Cascade Head area of the Oregon coast were used to estimate the peoples use of various ecosystems near villages. Of 308 uses identified, 256 were attributable to a given species; 124 species were identified. All local ecosystems were important sources of organisms for the people, with no apparent concentration of highly used species in any particular ecosystem. One species was cultivated, one domesticated, and five acquired by trade. Four major plant resources, camas, yew, hazel, and beargrass, are not known from the Cascade Head landscape, but may have been available from elsewhere in village territory. House construction without use of cedar planks, as indicated by ethnographic records, may have resulted from the paucity of western redcedar in the Salmon River lowlands. The scarcity of several widely used taxa near coastal village sites, especially western redcedar, may have limited the wealth of this indigenous population, even on the resource-rich Oregon coast. Introduction Tillamook, who resided near Cascade Head on the north-central Oregon Coast, in an area where Indigenous people used resources primarily from information about historic and modern plant and the landscape in which they resided. The natural animal species distribution is unusually complete. distribution of resources governed the pattern and The list of taxa used was compared to historic richness of their lives.
