Optics, structure and variability of the offshore Columbia River plume

Creator:: Saldías, Gonzalo
Abstract:: The Columbia River delivers the greatest amount of freshwater to the coastal ocean along the U.S. Pacific coast. This freshwater forms the Columbia River plume, a mesoscale plume with significant implications on coastal ocean physical, biological, chemical, and geological processes. The plume is transported south and offshore during the upwelling...

Pacific Coast Groundfish Fishery Assessment and Management: Incorporating Nearshore Surveys into the Fishery Management Framework

Creator:: Haven, Katlyn M. M.
Abstract:: The Pacific coast groundfish fishery is a diverse, important and lucrative commercial and recreational fishery. Part of this fishery’s monitoring process includes regular fishery-independent surveys for stock assessment. Although these fishery-independent surveys are cost-effective, they are susceptible to scientific uncertainty, and they do not currently sample in nearshore (water depth...

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...

Sixth Oregon climate assessment

Creator:: Fleishman, Erica and Oregon Climate Change Research Institute
Abstract:: Consistent with its charge under Oregon House Bill 3543, the Oregon Climate Change Research Institute (OCCRI) conducts a biennial assessment of the state of climate change science, including biological, physical, and social science, as it relates to Oregon and the likely effects of climate change on Oregon. This sixth Oregon...

Incorporation of diet information derived from Bayesian stable isotope mixing models into mass-balanced marine ecosystem models: A case study from the Marennes-Oleron Estuary, France

Creator:: Pacella, Stephen R., Lebreton, Benoit, Richard, Pierre, Phillips, Donald, DeWitt, Theodore H., and Niquil, Nathalie
Abstract:: We investigated the use of output from Bayesian stable isotope mixing models as constraints for a linear inverse food web model of a temperate intertidal seagrass system in the Marennes-Oléron Bay, France. Linear inverse modeling (LIM) is a technique that estimates a complete network of flows in an under-determined system...

Stratigraphic correlation of seismoturbidites and the integration of sediment cores with 3.5 kHz chirp subbottom data in southern Cascadia

Creator:: Black, Bran
Abstract:: In order to evaluate the shallow stratigraphy along the southern Cascadia abyssal margin and northern California abyssal plain, CHIRP subbottom profiles capable of imaging individual turbidite beds in the upper tens of meters of the subsurface were collected. Reflectors imaged with the 3.5 kHz CHIRP subbottom data represent turbidite beds...

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...

Modeled Larval Connectivity Patterns in two Coral Reef Regions : the Western Caribbean and the Kenyan-Tanzanian Shelf

Creator:: Mayorga Adame, Claudia Gabriela
Abstract:: Tropical coral reef ecosystems are very important from both the ecological and economical points of view. However, they are also particularly fragile, and have been declining in recent years in most regions of the world, since they are highly susceptible to anthropogenic stressors operating at global scales (e.g., global warming...

Atmospheric CO₂ over the last 1000 years: A high-resolution record from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide ice core

Creator:: Ahn, Jinho, Brook, Edward J., Mitchell, Logan, Rosen, Julia, McConnell, Joseph R., Taylor, Kendrick, Etheridge, David, and Rubino, Mauro
Abstract:: We report a decadally resolved record of atmospheric CO₂ concentration for the last 1000 years, obtained from the West Antarctic Ice Sheet (WAIS) Divide shallow ice core. The most prominent feature of the pre-industrial period is a rapid ∼7 ppm decrease of CO₂ in a span of ∼20–50 years at...

Advancements in the Monitoring of Forests and Quantification of Live Aboveground Biomass Using Moderate Resolution Spaceborne Multispectral Imagery and Synthetic Aperture Radar Data

Creator:: Kilbride, John B.
Abstract:: The objective of this dissertation is to enhance the monitoring of forest ecosystems through the utilization of remotely sensed data to address the exigencies posed by the Anthropocene. On a global scale, rising temperatures and fluctuating precipitation patterns have strained forests and produced shifts in natural disturbance regimes. Additionally, the...
