	title = {The Geomorphic Significance of Log Steps in Forest Streams of the Oregon Coast Range},
	year = {1980},
	note = {Doctoral dissertation. {\textquotedblleft}A log step develops when large woody debris extends across the active channel, creating a change in the water surface elevation as the stream spills over the log step. By forming a series of vertical falls, log steps reduce the amount of potential energy available for conversion to kinetic energy used for water and sediment routing. By trapping sediment supplied from upstream and adjacent hillslopes, log steps introduce an additional storage component into the sediment budget for forest streams.{\textquotedblright} The author examined 13 different coastal streams in four different land-types and developed a method for determining the impact of log steps on stream sediment budgets. Maps, color photographs. Although dating from 1980, this work could provide useful insights for those interested in the watersheds studied here, many of which are not well studied elsewhere.  Major professor was Charles L. Rosenfeld.},
