These data collection efforts represent a variety of research objectives. Primarily data were collected to document landslide occurence in managed forest lands of the western Cascade Range and to assess the impact of road-building and timber harvest on landslide magnitude and frequency.
Shape file of landslide occurrences in the vicinity of the H. J. Andrews Experimental Forest. This layer is a combination of data from four landslide inventory efforts that have been conducted in the area beginning in the late 1960's. Data represent landslide occurrences between 1953 and 1996. Data are in the UTM coordinate system; zone 10, NAD27.
The data table that describes the characteristics of the landslides inventoried in the following: Individual layers tied to inventories by Ted Dyrness, Fred Swanson, Dan Marion, and Matt Wallenstein were appended and linked to the shape file. This file is associated with the slideinv layer, which is a combination of data from four landslide inventory efforts that have been conducted in the area beginning in the late 1960's. Points have been screen digitized from field maps using streams, roads, contour lines, and harvest units as reference layers.
Landslide inventory field collections were conducted by Ted Dyrness, Fred Swanson, Dan Marion, and Matt Wallenstein. Data sets were provided by the Forest Science Data Bank, a partnership between the Department of Forest Science, Oregon State University, and the U.S. Forest Service Pacific Northwest Research Station, Corvallis, Oregon. Significant funding for these data was provided by the National Science Foundation Long-Term Ecological Research program (NSF Grant numbers BSR-90-11663 and DEB-96-32921).
