Urbanization and Oregon’s Wild Salmonids Executive Summary This technical report by the Independent Multidisciplinary Science Team (IMST) is a comprehensive review of how human activities in urban and rural-residential areas can alter aquatic ecosystems and resulting implications for salmonid recovery, with a geographic focus on the state of Oregon. The following topics are considered in the form of science questions, and comprise the major components of this report: 1) The effects of urban and rural-residential development on Oregon’s watersheds and native wild salmonids. 2) Actions that can be used to avoid or mitigate undesirable changes to aquatic ecosystems near developing urban and rural-residential areas. 3) The benefits and pitfalls of salmonid habitat rehabilitation within established urban or rural-residential areas. 4) Suggested research and monitoring focus areas that will facilitate the recovery of salmonid populations affected by development. The fundamental concepts presented in this report should be applicable to most native salmonid populations across the state. IMST encourages managers and policy-makers with interest in a specific species or geographic region to carefully research local ecological conditions, as well as specific life history characteristics of salmonids in the region. Conserving watershed condition and salmonids in the face of increasing development requires consideration of two distinct sets of processes. First are the human social and economic processes that drive patterns in land use change. Second are the ecological processes, altered by land use, that underlie salmonid habitat changes. This report focuses on the latter and summarizes the effects of rural-residential and urban development on native, wild salmonid populations and the watersheds upon which they depend. GENERAL EFFECTS OF URBANIZATION The pressures of urban and rural residential land use affect aquatic ecosystems and salmonids through alterations of, and interactions among, hydrology, physical habitat structure, water quality, and fish passage. These alterations occur at local and, especially, watershed scales, and thus require study and management at multiple scales. Urban and rural-residential development causes profound changes to the pathways, volume, timing, and chemical composition of stormwater runoff. These changes alter stream physical, chemical, and biological structure and potential, as well as the connectivity of streams with their watersheds. Although some authors have reported effect or no-effect thresholds between percent urbanized or impervious watershed and biological or hydrological responses, IMST uncovered no evidence of consistent thresholds in its examination of results presented in the scientific literature. Urbanization generally results in the urban stream syndrome, marked both by increases in peak flows in streams, in channel erosion, and in non-native and tolerant species abundances, and by decreases in base flows in streams, in channel and physical habitat complexity, in physical and chemical water quality, in fish passage, and in intolerant species. The result of all these changes associated with the urban stream syndrome is a decline in overall biological condition. The magnitudes and rates of those i Urbanization and Oregon’s Wild Salmonids changes vary with prior land use and natural geographic or ecoregional factors (i.e., climate, geology, landform, soils, and natural vegetation). RESEARCH AND MONITORING NEEDS There are many research and monitoring needs directly related to urban and rural residential areas, some of which overlap with the research and monitoring needs for other land use types. Given the marked effects of developed areas on surface waters, the continued expansion of development in Oregon, the proportion of the human population residing in these areas and the limited amount of research and monitoring conducted on them, IMST believes that the following research and monitoring needs warrant greater attention from Oregon Plan agencies. Better knowledge is needed on the general effects of urban development, including the major factors that impair aquatic ecosystems and limit salmonid populations in urban and rural residential areas. Specifically, there are needs to: 1) Assess how effective impervious area (including its proximity and connectivity to streams), landscape development indices, and measures of traffic or road density affect aquatic ecosystem responses to varying degrees. 2) Insure that research on water quality (e.g., toxic chemicals) is integrated into other inter- related factors that affect entire aquatic ecosystems (i.e., from headwaters to estuaries and near-shore marine environments) for salmonid recovery. 3) Consider large-scale, long-term changes and anticipate at least 50-100 years of human population and economic growth on salmonid-supporting watersheds, through the use of futuring and systematic analyses. Better knowledge is needed on the variation of effects of development across Oregon, including

    CHARLES E. HEANEY: MEMORY, IMAGINATION, AND PLACE Hallie Ford Museum of Art at Willamette University January 22 through March 19, 2005 Teachers Guide This guide is to help teachers prepare students for a field trip to the exhibition, Charles Heaney: Memory, Imagination, and Place; offer ways to lead their own tours; and propose ideas to reinforce the gallery experience and broaden curriculum concepts. Teachers, however, will need to consider the level and needs of their students in adapting these materials and lessons. Preparing for the tour: • If possible, visit the exhibition on your own beforehand. • Using the images (print out sets for students, create a bulletin board, etc.) and information in the teacher packet, create a pre-tour lesson plan for the classroom to support and complement the gallery experience. If you are unable to use images in the classroom, the suggested discussions can be used for the Museum tour. • Create a tour Build on the concepts students have discussed in the classroom Have a specific focus, i.e. the theme Memory, Imagination and Place; subject matter; art elements; etc. Be selective – don’t try to look at or talk about everything in the exhibition. Include a simple task to keep students focused. Plan transitions and closure for the tour. • Make sure students are aware of gallery etiquette. At the Museum: • Review with students what is expected – their task and museum behavior. • Focus on the works of art. Emphasize looking and discovery through visual scanning (a guide is included in this packet). If you are unsure where to begin, a good way to start is by asking, “What is happening in this picture?” Follow with questions that will help students back up their observations: “What do you see that makes you say that?” or “Show us what you have found.” • Balance telling about a work and letting students react to a work.

  • Muralist Roster
    Muralist Roster Updated January 2020 Introduction The Regional Arts & Culture Council (RACC) established the Muralist Roster as an on-line resource that can be used by anyone seeking an artist for a mural project – community groups, business or property owners, schools, architecture firms, private developers or other public art programs. The artists on the roster were selected by RACC’s Public Art Murals Program Committee* and have demonstrated skills, experience and interest in designing and painting large scale paintings and/or murals. The intent of the roster is to provide users a range of artistic styles from which to select an artist that fits the needs of a particular project. All artists live and work in either Oregon or Washington and have previous experience working large scale. As you review this roster, read about each of the artists in their own words and view details of up to three past projects to get a feel for their work. Links to websites and social media outlets allow you to further explore their practice. Questions? Salvador Mayoral, Public Art Associate, 503.823.5865, [email protected] Arts and culture help spark conversations, spur social change and make our community strong. RACC is committed to ensuring that everyone in our region has equal access to arts and the fundamental right to express their culture through the arts. *Public Art Murals Committee members: Brigid Blackburn, Mehran Heard, Jason Powers, Wendy Red Star, Tomas Valladares Cover artists clockwise from left: Jennifer Kuhns, Ellen Picken, Michael Feliz, Plastic Birdie DAVEY BARNWELL Portland, Oregon daveybarnwell.com Instagram My paintings are grounded in cartography, landscape, architecture, as well as the human interactions that happen in these physical spaces.
