Creator:: Kuonen, Jessica, Conway, Flaxen D. L., and Strub, Ted
Abstract:: This case study explores how to add value to regional ocean condition forecast information by bringing awareness to the processes that govern decision-making and outcomes within the system. A modified mental models research approach is applied to examine differences and similarities in perceptions of risk and comfort with uncertainty between...

Creator:: Kuonen, Jessica, Conway, Flaxen D. L., and Strub, Ted
Abstract:: This case study is in response to a recognized need to transform short-term regional ocean condition forecast information into useful data products for a range of end users, considering their perceptions of uncertainty and risk associated with these forecasts. It demonstrates the value of user engagement in achieving long-term goals...

Creator:: Cramer, Lori A., Flathers, Courtney, Caracciolo, Deanna, Russell, Suzanne M., and Conway, Flaxen D. L.
Abstract:: Commercial fishing is deeply embedded in the economy and culture of many communities on the Oregon coast. Recent economic, environmental, and regulatory changes impacting fisheries have exacerbated the need to investigate the relationship between the commercial fishing industry and their host communities. The objective of this study is to examine...

Creator:: Stone, David, Lam, Jennifer, Conway, Flaxen D. L., and Chan, Samuel S.
Abstract:: OBJECTIVE To document the environmental stewardship practices (decisions and actions regarding use and disposal) of pet and human pharmaceuticals and personal care products (PPCPs) among pet-owning veterinary-care professionals (practicing veterinarians, veterinary students, and veterinary technicians and trainees) and environmental educators. DESIGN Internet-based cross-sectional survey. SAMPLE 191 pet owners (103 veterinary-care...

Abstract:: In the mid-2000s the U.S. west coast oyster industry experienced several years of significant production failures. This industry has been referred to as the “canary in a coal mine” for ocean acidification (OA). Industry-led collaboration with university and government scientists identified a relationship between elevated carbon dioxide in seawater and...

Creator:: Sullivan, Colleen M., Conway, Flaxen D. L., Pomeroy, Caroline, Hall-Arber, Madeleine, and Wright, Dawn J.
Abstract:: Agencies in the US with oversight for marine renewable energy development have idealistically sought space where this new use might proceed unhindered by other uses. Despite experiential evidence of spatial overlap among existing ocean uses, a lack of documentation makes the identification of potential space-use conflicts, communication among existing and...

Creator:: Ciannelli, Lorenzo, Hunsicker, Mary, Beaudreau, Anne, Finley, Carmel, Heppell, Selina, Conway, Flaxen, Bailey, Kevin, Crowder, Larry B., Webb, Colleen, Reynolds, John, Sagmiller, Kay, Anderies, John M., Hawthorne, David, Parrish, Julia, Conway, Flaxen D. L., and Chigbu, Paulinus
Abstract:: In this article we consider the current educational needs for science and policy in marine resource management, and we propose a way to address them. The existing literature on cross-disciplinary education in response to pressing environmental problems is vast, particularly in conservation biology. However, actual changes in doctoral-level marine science...

Creator:: Kerr, Sandy, Watts, Laura, Colton, John, Conway, Flaxen D. L., Hull, Angela, Johnson, Kate, Jude, Simon, Kannen, Andreas, MacDougall, Shelley, McLachlan, Carly, Potts, Tavis, and Vergunst, Jo
Abstract:: To date, academic research relating to Marine Renewable Energy (MRE) has largely focused on resource assessment, technical viability and environmental impact. Experiences from onshore renewable energy tell us that social acceptability is equally critical to project success. However, the specific nature of the marine environment, patterns of resource distribution and...
