Creator:: Fritz, Cara E.
Abstract:: A year-long field study was undertaken to investigate the influence of a number of physical and biological factors, specifically temperature, organic carbon content, and shrimp population dynamics on sediment reworking rates by the ghost shrimp Neotrypaea calforniensis. Because of its role as a structuring agent in estuaries along the West...

Abstract:: Lingcod (Ophiodon elongatus) are known to utilize certain estuaries along the Pacific coast of the United States, but the importance of these habitats to the coast-wide population is not well understood. In this study, general patterns of estuarine habitat use were assessed by tracking the movement of sub-adult and adult...

Creator:: Nielsen, Mark E.
Abstract:: A benthic microbial fuel cell (BMFC) is an electrochemical device that generates current from the redox gradient at the sediment-water interface. Early prototypes had anodes buried in anoxic sediments and cathodes in overlying water. The BMFCs described in this dissertation are based on a chamber design that enables the use...

Creator:: Mikulak, Sarah E.
Abstract:: Ocean observing groups are currently making efforts to work with well-defined end-user groups, like boaters and fishermen, to provide meaningful and effective real-time data (RTD) products and visualizations. However, providing meaningful data products for undefined groups such as the general public is not straightforward. In Oregon, several industry, science, and...

Creator:: Lemagie, Emily
Abstract:: Outreach is a small, but significant component to modern research. Developing an exhibit for public display can be an effective way to communicate science to broad audiences, although it may be a less familiar method to scientists than writing papers or giving presentations. I outline the process of developing an...
