  1. Micrometeorological Simulations to Predict the Impacts of Heat Mitigation Strategies on Pedestrian Thermal Comfort in a Los...

    The urban heat island impacts the thermal comfort of pedestrians in cities. In this paper, the effects of four heat mitigation strategies on micrometeorology and the thermal comfort of pedestrians were...

  2. Factors Driving the Concentration of Ephemeral Flow

    In spite of decades of related research, stream channel initiation is still not well understood. Current theories of channel initiation are grounded in research conducted by Montgomery and Dietrich, largely in...

  3. The Importance of Urban Habitat Connectivity and Influence on Native Avian Species and Community Science

    In what ways do small-scale urban backyards contribute to local bird abundance and biodiversity? In what ways might these yards serve as an ‘extension’ of neighboring native forest areas? This project...

  4. Assessment of a Mycorrhizal Fungi Application to Treat Stormwater in an Urban Bioswale

    This study assessed the effect of an application of mycorrhizal fungi to stormwater filter media on urban bioswale soil and stormwater in an infiltration-based bioswale aged 20 years with established...

  5. Use of Water Indices Derived from Landsat OLI Imagery and GIS to Estimate the Hydrologic Connectivity of Wetlands in the...

    This study compared two remote sensing water indices: the Normalized Difference Water Index (NDWI) and the Modified NDWI (MNDWI). Both indices were calculated using publically-available data from the Landsat 8...

  6. Tsunami and Salvage: The Archaeological Landscape of the Beeswax Wreck, Oregon, USA

    Unidentified shipwrecks were a relatively common sight on the beaches of the Pacific Northwest coast of North America in the nineteenth century, as recorded in accounts written in newspapers and journals of the...

  7. Assessing Mechanisms of Climate Change Impact on the Upland Forest Water Balance of the Willamette River Basin, Oregon

    Projected changes in air temperature, precipitation, and vapor pressure for the Willamette River Basin (Oregon, USA) over the next century will have significant impacts on the river basin water balance, notably...

  8. Community Science and the Ecological Merits of Backyard Habitat Patches and Adjacent Green-Spaces for Urban Avian Species

    In what ways do small-scale urban backyards contribute to local bird abundance and biodiversity? In what ways might these yards serve as an ‘extension’ of neighboring native forest areas? This project...

  9. Paleosol data from Kenya.

    These data were collected to evaluate the changing vegetation and paleoclimate of Kenya over the past 20 million years, and its relevance for human evolution. Data was collected in several areas of Kenya with...

  10. WOVEN SUBURBIA PROJECT: RETROFITTING SUBURBAN NEIGHBORHOODS WITH ECOLOGICAL, SOCIAL, AND AGRICULTURAL CORRIDORS

    38 pages. A thesis presented to the Department of Landscape Architecture and the Clark Honors College of the University of Oregon in partial fulfillment of the requirements for degree of Bachelor of Arts,...
