This book serves as a comprehensive guide to understanding the natural environment and resources found within the Rogue River Watershed. It contains information on the Rogue River and its tributaries including the surrounding landscapes such as the mountain ranges, geographic regions, geologic provinces, and vegetative communities. It also describes the plant and wildlife species contained within as well as their ecological relationships.
2. Bredensteiner K.C, Palacios, K; Strittholt, J.R; and Conservation Biology Institute. Assessment of Aquatic Habitat Monitoring Data in the Rogue River Basin and Southern Oregon Coastal Streams. Conservation Biology Institute. Corvallis, Oregon. (2003) [Special Collections: QH96.8.B5 B73]
The report assesses the health of aquatic habitats in the Rogue River Watershed. It also describes the conditions and methods used to gather information on the areas’ ecoregions, ecosystem processes, habitat layers, water quality, hydrology, and native species and proposes recommendations to conserve watershed health.
3. Doppelt, Bob; Hamilton, Roger; Deacon Williams, Cindy; Koopman, Marni; Climate Leadership Initiative; National Center for Conservation Science & Policy; Pacific Northwest Research Station (Portland, Or.). Preparing for Climate Change in the Rogue River Basin of Southwest Oregon: Stressors, Risks, and Recommendations for Increasing Resilience and Resistance in Human, Built, Economic, and Natural Systems. National Center for Conservation Science & Policy. (2008) [Special Collections: GE155.O7 C55]
This report assesses the most likely consequences that climate change will have on natural systems in the Rogue River Basin.

The research contained in this report is used to make recommendations on policies to protect ecosystems and human socio-economic systems.
4. Rogue Basin Coordinating Council; Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board. Watershed Health Factors Assessment. Rogue Basin Coordinating Council; Oregon Watershed Enhancement Board. (2006) [Special Collections: Government Publications: OR Y/W31.2W31]
This report identifies the factors that limit stream health in the Rogue River Watershed. It also describes the degree to which water quality, water quantity, in-stream habitat, barriers, channel modification, hydrologic function, development, roads, invasive species, shade, and wetlands are functioning in the watershed to produce high-quality water and healthy fish populations.
