The Oregon Nearshore Research Inventory Project : the importance of science and the scientific research community in marine spatial planning

Creator:: Sherman, Kate
Abstract:: The purpose of Oregon's Nearshore Research Inventory (NRI) project was to inventory and map the current and future use of Oregon's nearshore environment by the scientific research community for use in Oregon's marine spatial planning process. Spatial and qualitative data on the use of Oregon's ocean and coast by the...

A Study of Vegetation Change Over Time in the Salt Marshes of the Salmon River Estuary, Oregon

Creator:: Schrank, Keaton A.
Abstract:: The salt marshes of the Salmon River Estuary, Oregon have been of interest for decades due to their disturbance and restoration history, as well as the presence of long-term vegetation transects that were established as early as the 1970s. Vegetation abundance data have been gathered in the four sites of...

Basalts erupted along the Tongan fore arc during subduction initiation: Evidence from geochronology of dredged rocks from the Tonga fore arc and trench

Creator:: Meffre, Sebastian, Falloon, Trevor J., Crawford, Tony J., Hoernle, Kaj, Hauff, Folkmar, Duncan, Robert A., Bloomer, Sherman H., and Wright, Dawn J.
Abstract:: A wide variety of different rock types were dredged from the Tonga fore arc and trench between 8000 and 3000 m water depths by the 1996 Boomerang voyage. ⁴⁰Ar-³⁹Ar whole rock and U-Pb zircon dating suggest that these fore arc rocks were erupted episodically from the Cretaceous to the Pliocene...

Interactions of wind-driven and tidally-driven circulation in the Oregon coastal ocean

Creator:: Osborne, John J.
Abstract:: Influences of tidal and slower (subtidal) oceanic flows over the continental shelf and slope off Oregon are studied using a high-resolution ocean circulation model and comparative model-data analyses. The model is based on the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS), a fully nonlinear, three-dimensional model (using hydrostatic and Boussinesq approximations). The...

Investigation of Slip and Tectonics of the Blanco Transform Fault using High-resolution Ocean Bottom Seismic Data

Creator:: Kuna, Václav M.
Abstract:: The dissertation concentrates on seismicity of the Blanco Transform Fault (BTF), a 350-km-long oceanic transform fault (OTF) in the northeast Pacific Ocean. I analyze data collected during the Blanco Transform Fault OBS experiment, which comprised of a 1-year deployment of 55 three-component seismometers co-located with differential pressure gauges on and...

Ocean Mixing by Kelvin-Helmholtz Instability

Creator:: Smyth, William D. and Moum, James N.
Abstract:: Kelvin-Helmholtz (KH) instability, characterized by the distinctive finite-amplitude billows it generates, is an important mechanism in the development of turbulence in the stratified interior of the ocean. In particular, it is often assumed that the onset of turbulence in internal waves begins in this way. Clear recognition of the importance...

An investigation of the distribution and abundance of ichthyoplankton and juvenile benthic fishes in relation to nearshore hypoxia within the Northern California Current system

Creator:: Johnson, Angela M.
Abstract:: Nearshore hypoxia within the Northern California Current (NCC) system is a seasonal phenomenon caused by coastal upwelling and occurs mainly during late-summer and early fall. The effects of low oxygen levels on fish and invertebrate communities, particularly during early-life history stages, however, are poorly known for this area. I investigated...

Novel Copper and Iron Complexes along the Oregon Coastal Upwelling Margin

Creator:: Bright, Peter, W.
Abstract:: Copper and iron are essential micronutrients that are required by marine primary producers for a variety of metabolic processes. Over 99% of both copper and iron are bound within organic complexes in the marine environment, however the molecular identity of many of these complexes remains unknown. The speciation of these...

Marine Neritic and Epipelagic Community Dynamics: An Investigation of the 'Yin' and 'Yang', No-Analog, and Refugia from a Multi-species Perspective

Creator:: Barceló, Caren
Abstract:: Changes in ocean conditions influenced by climatic fluctuations have lead to changes in individual species distributions, which alter the diversity, communities and species interactions across marine ecosystems worldwide. Assessing the species composition and identifying regions and habitats that can safeguard the persistence of biota are critically important. In this dissertation,...
