A sequence of volcanic, volcaniclastic, and epiclastic deposits from Oligocene to Recent age are exposed in the region from Lake
Simtustus to Madras in central Oregon. The epiclastic sediments of the Oligocene John Day Formation are unconformably overlain by two flows of the middle Miocene Columbia River Basalt Group. The...
This project was carried out collaboratively by Oregon State University (OSU) and the Oregon Department of Geology and Mineral Industries (DOGAMI) and involved baseline observations and
modeling at the proposed wave energy conversion (WEC) array site near Reedsport, OR. In particular, observations and predictions of the wave conditions at the...

We inferred the population densities of blue whales (Balaenoptera musculus) and short-beaked
common dolphins (Delphinus delphis) in the Northeast Pacific Ocean as functions
of the water-column’s physical structure by implementing hierarchical models in a Bayesian
framework. This approach allowed us to propagate the uncertainty of the field observations
into the...

Coastal upwelling regimes are some of the most productive ecosystems in the ocean but are also among the most vulnerable to ocean acidification (OA) due to naturally high background concentrations of CO₂. Yet our ability to predict how these ecosystems will respond to additional CO₂ resulting from anthropogenic emissions is...

Significant seabird mortality on the Oregon (OR) and Washington (WA) coast in 2009 has been attributed
to a massive bloom of the dinoflagellate Akashiwo sanguinea (K. Hirasaka) G. Hansen & Ø. Moestrup.
Initial, albeit limited, observations suggested this bloom began in WA and reached OR waters through
southward transport. Here,...
While bubble plumes have been acoustically imaged in the water column above marine gas
hydrate deposits in many studies, little is known about the temporal variation in plume intensity. In
July 2008, we conducted surveys using 3.5 and 12 kHz echosounders and a 75 kHz acoustic Doppler
current profiler (ADCP)...
The 20-year US GLOBEC (Global Ocean Ecosystem Dynamics)
program examined zooplankton populations and their predators in four coastal
marine ecosystems. Program scientists learned that environmental controls on
zooplankton vital rates, especially the timing and magnitude of reproduction, growth,
life-cycle progression, and mortality, determine species population dynamics,
seasonal and spatial distributions,...
