It can be reasonably assumed that lamprey eel harvesting has systematically and periodically occurred along the Siletz River and its tributaries for as many hundreds, or thousands, or tens of thousands of years that human families and lamprey eel populations have coexisted in the Siletz Valley ecosystem. This report is...
The principal goal of this study was to determine the potential benefits of using Geographic
Information Systems (GIS) to manage marine resources and ocean space, emphasizing state
ocean interests. We also wanted to know how these benefits might foster more integration in
ocean management, as well as more equity, efficiency,...
Determination of the source and fate of natural (higher plant lipids, marine
lipids, etc.) and anthropogenically (e.g., petroleum, coal emissions) derived
hydrocarbons and oxygenated compounds in the environment was accomplished
using gas chromatography (GC) and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS)
to characterize or identify molecular biomarkers to be utilized as tracers....
The following study was commissioned by the Oregon State University Extension Service, Oregon Sea Grant College, and the Oregon State Marine Board (OSMB) to address the public transient moorage needs of large craft cruising and sailing vessels on the Lower Columbia River. The study will focus on the Oregon side...

Building institutional and human capacity for integrated coastal zone management (ICZM) is
increasingly recognized as critical to the future of sustainable development in coastal states.
Agenda 21 of the UNCED conference has underscored the urgency of capacity building for
ICZM as have other international bodies such as the North American...
The current and potential benefits of using geographic information systems (GIS) to support state-level and regional-scale ocean management in the United States are evaluated. Specifically, the role of GIS in facilitating improved integration of management strategies for a variety of resource use issues across multiple management jurisdictions is examined, along...
