Ecology of Temporary Streams -- Leaf Degradation

Purpose

This study focuses on the degradation process of leaves that can be divided into mechanical processing consisting of sediment abrasion and biological processing by animal feeding. For this purpose, leaf packs in four different streams and within one str

Quantifying the Relationship Between Riparian Zones and Stream Bio in the Willamette Basin

Purpose

The project is a continuation of work we did in 1997. In 1997, we conducted stream surveys at 25 sites in agricultural areas of the Willamette Valley. Using site-scale and under shed-scale (through air photo analysis) analyses , we attempted to qualify
