An ecological study of small forest mammals was conducted
from 1964 to 1970. The objectives were to obtain chronological information
relative to the effects of current logging practices on vegetational
succession and small mammal populations.

Riparian communities dominated by members of the
Salicaceae (Salix lasiandra, S. lutea, S. lemmonii,
Populus trichocarpa, P. tremuloides and S. exiqua) were
studied at the Crooked River National Grassland in central
Oregon. The objectives of this...

The purpose of this study was to determine the present status
of introduced parasites of the omnivorous leaf tier, Cnephasia
longana (Haworth) in Oregon.
The omnivorous leaf tier is native to Europe. It was introduced
into North America around...
