MicroSoar : a high speed microstructure profiling system

Creator:: May, Glenn H.
Abstract:: As ocean ecosystems continue to deteriorate in the face of human induced pressures, marine management professionals are increasingly being urged to predict the impacts of various activities on ocean ecosystems. Many ecosystem interactions are still not adequately understood, so managers often turn to scientists to provide data and analysis on...

Shoreline setbacks on the island of Maui, Hawaii : An analysis of shoreline variability, existing policy, and recommended alternatives

Creator:: Niles, Matt
Abstract:: Coastal erosion hazards on the Island of Maui can be divided into two general categories. Chronic shoreline retreat results from the gradual narrowing of beaches and shorelines over time under the influence of long-term dominant coastal processes and features of the littoral sediment budget that cause local sediment deficiencies. Episodic...

Prediction of Initial Mixing for Municipal Ocean Discharges

Creator:: Teeter, Allan M. and Baumgartner, D. J.
Abstract:: The purpose of this report is to present procedures by which applicants and reviewers can calculate initial dilution and describe the zone of initial dilution surrounding the discharge site. These calculations would be required under regulations proposed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on April 25, 1978 (1) implementing section...

Pacific Blue Marlin management in Hawaii: review of the Blue Marlin Fishery and an assessment of the current management needs

Creator:: Mitsuyasu, Mark K.
Abstract:: The Pacific Blue Marlin stock supports both recreational and commercial fisheries throughout their Pacific-wide distribution. The commercial component of the fishery imposes a greater fishing mortality on the stock but the recreational component may be more economically dependent on the continued health of the fishery (Orbach 1989). The recreational or...

Benefits of Geographic Information Systems for State and Regional Ocean Management

Creator:: Sowers, Derek C.
Abstract:: 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...

Changing Ocean Chemistry: A High School Curriculum on Ocean Acidification’s Cause, Impacts, and Solutions

Creator:: Erickson, Brian and Crews, Tracy
Abstract:: This five-lesson curriculum seeks to increase students' understanding of ocean acidification (OA) and help them understand that it is an issue they can address. There are five lessons in the unit and a final Call to Action project. Lesson 1 explores a real-life story about the near collapse of the...

Citizen Science Research : A Focus on Historical Whaling Data and a Current Marine Mammal Citizen Science Project, Whale mAPP

Creator:: Hann, Courtney
Abstract:: Citizen science work has built the foundation of much of our knowledge on regional-scale large cetacean spatial patterns through historical whaling data. Historical whaling data on sperm whales was used as an example to show the type of ecological questions large-scale, long-term citizen science datasets can address. Results from the...

Marine protected areas : Gathering stakeholder input via an internet-based survey

Creator:: Demirdjian, Renee
Abstract:: Conservation efforts have been increasing in recent years to help preserve threatened coastal and ocean resources. Marine protected areas (MPAs) are an important tool to protect and conserve ocean resources. The MPA Center was established to take the lead in developing a framework for a national system of MPAs. The...

Assessing the effectiveness of the Kosrae Island Resource Management Program (KIRMP) implementation strategy

Creator:: Phillips, Brady Allen
Abstract:: In summer 1992, I interned as a Technical Assistant with the Kosrae Bureau of Planning and Statistics, Kosrae, Federated States of Micronesia (F.S.M). The University of Oregon Micronesia Program sponsored the internship, which proved to be a unique professional and cross-cultural experience. The internship, initiated by Mr. Gerson Jackson, Director...

Assessing the Impact of Fishery Bait on Spatiotemporal Variation in the Feeding Ecology of Dungeness Crab (Cancer magister) Using Stable Isotopes, Gut Content Analysis & Fishermen Interviews

Creator:: Harbison, Toby N.
Abstract:: The commercial Dungeness crab (Cancer magister) fishery is Oregon’s largest trap-based fishery. Each year, crab vessels discard millions of pounds of bait, including squid, razor clams, and sardines, into the near-coastal ocean. Although the fishery season typically runs from December 1st through August 14th, most landings occur within the first...
