Utilizing cooperative fisheries research to monitor and understand harmful algal blooms along the Oregon coast

Creator:

Gilliland, Raquel C.

Abstract:

Harmful algal blooms (HABs) are a problem for coastal communities, the fishing industry, and coastal organisms. Pseudo-nitzschia spp. is a regularly occurring diatom in Oregon’s coastal waters. At times, Pseudo-nitzschia spp. can facultatively produce domoic acid, a neurotoxin that can bioaccumulate in the food chain. While regular shore-based sampling provides...

Factors Influencing Streamflow Generation Processes in Rain-dominated, Coastal Watersheds in Oregon

Creator:

Pazdral, Rosemary

Abstract:

Relative to other systems in the PNW, the rain-dominated, coastal watersheds of western Oregon have shallow aquifers. Given the seasonality of streamflow and storage limitations in coastal, rain-dominated watersheds, changes in the temporal patterns of precipitation have the potential to magnify the risk of extreme streamflow conditions during both high-...
