Genetic Connectivity of Dungeness Crab (Cancer magister) in the California Current System and Puget Sound

Creator:: Jackson, Tyler M.
Abstract:: Understanding connectivity among exploited populations is critical to their sustainable management and long-term viability. In the marine environment, estimates of connectivity often rely on the use of genetic markers, as dispersal primarily occurs during a planktonic larval phase which is difficult to track using direct methods. In this thesis, we...

Eyes on the Seafloor : Using Video Tools to Monitor Benthic Communities at Dredged Material Disposal Sites at the Mouth of the Columbia River

Creator:: Fields, Stephanie A.
Abstract:: The mouth of the Columbia River (MCR) is an intersection of more than a river and ocean, but also multiple economically valuable activities including dredging to maintain a deep draft shipping channel and an active Dungeness crab (Metacarcinus magister) fishery. More than three million cubic meters of sediment are annually...

Dietary responses of marine predators to variable oceanographic conditions in the Northern California Current

Creator:: Gladics, Amanda J.
Abstract:: Variable ocean conditions can greatly impact lower trophic level prey assemblages in marine ecosystems, with effects propagating up to higher trophic levels. Our goal was to better understand how varying ocean conditions influence diets and niche overlap among a suite of low- to mid trophic level predators. We studied the...

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...

Unrealized Economic Benefits in the West Coast Non-Whiting Groundfish Trawl Fishery

Creator:: Gann, Aaron K.
Abstract:: In Oregon, commercial fishing is estimated to contribute $544 million in income and 10,000 jobs per year to coastal communities. However not all fisheries are reaching their allocated quotas for catch. In 2017, 187.6 million pounds of non-whiting groundfish trawl quota worth $67 million was not attained, nearly three times...

Influence of Regional Oceanography on the Distributions, Trophic Interactions, Growth, and Survival of the Early Life History Stages of Fishes

Creator:: Swieca, Kelsey
Abstract:: Most marine fishes experience high rates of mortality during their early life history stages with far reaching consequences for adult population dynamics. Within a few weeks of hatching, relatively small changes in larval growth and mortality rates can lead to orders of magnitude variability in year-class strength. Growth and survival...

Growth, Condition, and Survival of Larval Arctic Cod and Walleye Pollock in a Warming Ocean

Creator:: Koenker, Brittany L.
Abstract:: Arctic cod (Boreogadus saida) is an ecologically significant species that plays a critical role channeling energy throughout the Arctic marine food web. Arctic cod is uniquely adapted to occupy ice edge habitats, however, a basic understanding of its larval physiology and habitat requirements is lacking due to widespread sea ice...

Influence of Novel Ocean Conditions on Life History Characteristics of a Nearshore Rockfish with Implications for Population Assessment and Management

Creator:: Rosemond, Rebecca C.
Abstract:: The California Current Large Marine Ecosystem (CCLME), located on the eastern boundary of the North Pacific Ocean, is highly dynamic, with variable conditions driven by seasonal upwelling, regional oceanography, and broad scale climate patterns. In the last decade, the northeast Pacific Ocean has experienced several marine heatwaves (MHWs), prolonged periods...

The Space Between: How We Understood, Valued, and Governed the Ocean Through the Process of Marine Science and Emerging Technologies

Creator:: Newton, Samantha
Abstract:: Ian Angell, in the New Barbarian Manifesto, said “A ‘brave new world’ is being forced upon unsuspecting societies by advances in information technology.” It would seem then, that technological advances happen automatically and have a life of their own. There is a logic to technological advancements that is outside human...

Bio-physical interactions of small pelagic fish schools and zooplankton prey in the California Current System over multiple scales

Creator:: Kaltenberg, Amanda May
Abstract:: Small pelagic fish represent a critical trophic link between plankton and large predators in marine upwelling ecosystems such as the California Current System. Populations of these fish are highly variable over time and are characterized by extreme fluctuations in abundance, which have significant ecosystem impacts. The causes driving this instability...
