Spatial and temporal characteristics of bottom-trawl fish assemblages of the continental shelf and upper slope of the Pacific Coast of the United States, 1977-1992

Creator:: Jay, Chadwick V.
Abstract:: Twenty-three bottom-trawl fish assemblages were identified from the relative biomass of 33 dominant species that occurred in the National Marine Fisheries Services' triennial trawl surveys over the continental shelf and upper slope off California, Oregon, and Washington from 1977 to 1992. The assemblages accounted for about 70% of the total...

Transhumance as an adaptive strategy of West Coast RV retirees

Creator:: Williams, Diane
Abstract:: This ethnography describes RV [recreational vehicle] seasonal migration as an adaptive, transhumant strategy. The study population is retired, transhumant migrants, who are members of a nation-wide, membership camping organization. Fieldwork was conducted over a period of seven months at two sites located on the West Coast. These sites reflect northern...

Fishery databases : description, documentation and narrative for the State of Oregon : final report

Creator:: Oregon. Dept. of Fisheries, Northwest Indian Fisheries Commission (Wash.), and United States. Minerals Management Service. Pacific OCS Region
Abstract:: In 1987, U.S. Department of the Interior's Minerals Management Service (MMS) began a new proposed 5-Year Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) Oil and Gas Leasing Program for mid-1987 through mid-1992. Proposed OCS Lease Sale 132 (off Oregon and Washington) was included in this 5-Year Program. Under the agreement, the Oregon Department...

Industry-scientist cooperative research : application to the West Coast groundfish fishery

Creator:: Harms, John
Abstract:: Declining harvest levels, static agency research budgets, and increasing tension among scientists, managers, and industry members are the legacy of the present research and management institutions in the West Coast groundfish fishery. Cooperative research, the active participation of the commercial fishing industry in scientific research, is receiving increased attention as...

Genetic variation in phenology of bud and cambial activity in coastal Douglas-fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii var. menziesii (Mirb.) Franco)

Creator:: Li, Peng, 1961-
Abstract:: Growth phenology (i.e., timing of growth initiation and cessation) is important to adaptation. This study examined the extent of genetic control of bud and cambial phenology and their relationships with stem growth in pole-size Douglas-fir (ages 13 to 16 years) from 60 open-pollinated families. The availability of bud phenology data...

Interannual and interdecadal variability in the timing and strength of the spring transitions along the United States west coast

Creator:: Bilbao, Pablo A.
Abstract:: Past studies of the Oregon and Washington coast have shown a rapid change in the coastal ocean conditions with the onset of upwelling in spring. This process, called the spring transition marks the change from winter to summer conditions along the west coast of Unites States. To examine the interannual...

Diversity of bacterioplankton and plastid SSU rRNA genes from the eastern and western continental shelves of the United States

Creator:: Rappé, Michael Stephen
Abstract:: The phylogenetic diversity of two continental shelf picoplankton communities was examined by analyzing SSU (16S) ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes amplified from environmental DNA with bacterial-specific primers and the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Picoplankton populations collected from the pycnocline (10 m) over the eastern continental shelf of the United States near...

Prevalence, geographic distribution, and biology of a dungeness crab, Cancer magister, microsporidian parasite

Creator:: Childers, Richard K.
Abstract:: The microsporidian parasite Nadelspora canceri infects Dungeness crabs, Cancer magister, along the United States Pacific Northwest coast. The prevalence and seasonal variation of N. canceri in Dungeness crabs from Alsea Bay, Oregon, are described based on examination of 2991 crabs collected at monthly intervals from October, 1991 to June, 1993....
