Research
The Corvallis Forest welcomes access for projects and research that align with the guiding principles and access policy of the Corvallis Forest Stewardship Plan. The watershed's primary function is to provide drinking water for the City of Corvallis. To this end, the watershed is managed to enhance ecosystem functions that ultimately supports clean drinking water. Within this context, there are many opportunities for education and outreach about source water, observational studies and limited potential for collaboration for research in the context of a managed forest.
Below you will find some of the papers that have been produced, at least in part from work that occurred on or around Corvallis Forest. If you are interested in doing research, please reach out via email to Julia.Cline@corvallisoregon.gov or via the Watershed Access Request form.
