The Environmental, Economic, and Social Factors that Contribute to the Importance of the Pacific Razor Clam (Siliqua patula) Fishery for Oregon Coastal Communities: A Northern Oregon Case Study

Creator:: Baker, Laura C.
Abstract:: Pacific razor clams (Siliqua patula) are narrow oblong bivalves that can be found in sandy habitats along the western coast of the United States, from Alaska (Aleutian Islands) to southern California (Pismo Beach). In Washington state, the razor clam fishery has been documented to be an important contributor to the...

Understanding the economic benefits of tidal wetlands restoration

Creator:: Shaw, Graham R.
Abstract:: Habitat restoration projects are vital for recovering ecosystems, but they can be expensive. One way to help justify the price tag is to value the economic benefits provided by the restored habitat. The issue is that many ecosystem services and the flow of benefits they produce are complex, requiring careful...

Shell Boring Polychaetes and the Oregon Oyster Aquaculture Industry: Spatial Distribution, Regulatory Actions, and Stakeholder Engagement

Creator:: Considine, Megan E.
Abstract:: Shell-boring polychaetes pose economic risks for oyster aquaculture industries as they reduce the aesthetic quality of oyster products by creating unsightly mud-filled blisters on the inside of the shell. Recently there has been a reported uptick in infested oysters on commercial farms along the west coast of the US, which...

Fishing for Hypoxia: Exploring Coastal Oxygen Dynamics and Predictability of Low Oxygen Episodes through a Partnership with the Oregon Dungeness Crab Fishing Fleet

Creator:: Stoltz, Linus O.
Abstract:: Coastal hypoxia, or low oxygen episodes pose a threat to marine resources in the Pacific Northwest. Previous research into nearshore oxygen dynamics have linked coastal upwelling to this seasonally occurring phenomenon, however the manifestation of hypoxic waters over coastal fishing grounds was not well understood. Through a partnership with Dungeness...

Mobility Push Factors: Modeling the Influences of Natural Disasters on Migration Flows and Adaptation Interventions on Coastal Housing Prices

Creator:: Rose, Stefan A.
Abstract:: Natural disasters are an increasingly costly and frequent occurrence globally and in the United States (IPCC, 2012; IPCC, 2014; Berlemann & Steinhardt, 2017). Discrete disaster events, such as coastal flooding, have been shown to be push factors in temporary and long-term migration (Black et al., 2013). Policy efforts to adapt...

An Exploration of Climate Change, Conservation, and Cooperation, in Three Essays

Creator:: Johnson, Steven Mana'oakamai
Abstract:: The defining feature of our planet are the oceans, which make up 70% of the Earth’s surface. The importance of the ocean cannot be understated: 50% of oxygen originates from phytoplankton; heat is absorbed and redistributed by ocean currents; and hundreds of millions of people rely on the ocean for...

Management Applications of Remotely Sensed Dynamic Seascapes: Two Case Studies

Creator:: Klajbor, Willem C.
Abstract:: Dynamic seascapes, which are classified using a combination of remotely sensed data and model output, represent a potential tool for dynamic ecosystem-based management in marine systems. This work explores the utility of seascape classification in the context of marine resource management by examining two case studies: one involving biological relationships...

Effects of Stage 0 treatment on spring Chinook juveniles within South Fork McKenzie River in Oregon

Creator:: Hahn, Aleah
Abstract:: Low-tech habitat restoration techniques, including Stage 0 treatments, are increasingly applied but often lack robust evaluation of their effects. In 2018, one kilometer of the South Fork McKenzie (SFMK) River, OR was modified to the Stage 0 condition for the benefit of ESA-listed Chinook by raising the incised channel to...

The Deep Sea and Me : using a science center exhibit to promote lasting public literacy and elucidate public perception of the deep sea

Creator:: Darr, Katherine D., East, Jennifer L., Seabrook, Sarah, Dundas, Steven J., and Thurber, Andrew R.
Abstract:: A critical barrier to effective management of deep-sea resources is a lack of understanding by society of the benefits received from the oceans. To address this knowledge gap, we applied an iterative design-based research methodology to evaluate (1) how to effectively use an exhibit to increase public literacy of the...

Fisheries Connectivity Networks to Measure the Adaptive Capacity of Small-Scale Fisheries in the Baja California Peninsula, Mexico

Creator:: Nomura, Keiko
Abstract:: Small-scale fisheries around the world are increasingly facing pressures from a range of environmental, economic, and social sources. In order to sustain the societal benefits of small-scale fisheries, it is imperative to understand how fishing communities adapt to disturbances. Fishermen often catch multiple different species as an adaptation technique because...
