Download or read book Management Plan for the Western Painted Turtle at the Sandy River Delta in Troutdale Oregon written by and published by . This book was released on 2023 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This management plan has been prepared for the Lower Columbia Estuary Partnership and is intended to provide guidance for the improvement and protection of western painted turtle (Chrysemys picta bellii) habitat at the Sandy River Delta in Troutdale, Oregon. The Sandy River Delta is a 1500-acre natural area situated where the Columbia and Sandy Rivers meet. Its dynamic floodplain habitat supports a diverse assemblage of species, including the western painted turtle, an Oregon Conservation Strategy Species. A small, unknown number of western painted turtles utilize the wetland habitats of the Sandy River Delta, and the frequency in observations of these turtles has decreased over time. The habitat utilization of western painted turtles at the Sandy River Delta has likely been influenced by changes in site hydrology, disturbance by off-leash dogs, and the presence of invasive vegetation in key turtle habitat. To create this management plan, western painted turtle habitat at the Sandy River Delta was evaluated to determine the necessary management actions for habitat improvement and protection.

Download or read book Management Plan for Western Painted Turtle Chrysemys Picta Belli At Fairview Creek Headwaters written by and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 98 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Western painted turtles (Chrysemys picta belli) are found occupying Fairview Creek Headwaters (FCH) in Gresham, Oregon. This urban stream contains a large wetland with an adjacent butte, all managed by the City of Gresham. This management plan addresses the preferred habitat and population of turtles at the site. A habitat delineation of the site revealed specific locations where habitat improvements could take place as well as areas of already beneficial habitat. Two site plans were prepared showing areas of the site that could be enhanced with nesting habitat as well as additional aquatic habitat and basking habitat. A habitat study was conducted comparing the terrestrial and aquatic habitat in the northern part of the site and the southern portion of the site. The northern portion of the site, where the most turtles are seen, was found to have more bare ground, with a rush species and emergent vegetation as indicator species. The southern portion of the wetland was dominated by reed canary grass and birdsfoot trefoil. This area had high plant density with very little bare ground. The aquatic habitat in the southern portion of the wetland had less emergent vegetation and more floating vegetation. Two management plans were created for Fairview Creek Headwaters northern section of the site. The first plan is a low impact plan, focusing on nesting habitat creation along the west edge of the north wetland. Plan 2 is a more comprehensive plan which includes improving aquatic habitat and basking habitat. Seven years of mark-recapture data collected on the turtle was used to summarize findings on the turtle population. Two methods were used to estimate the population size, Lincoln Petersen and Schnabel methods.
