“Jellyfish : Dispatches from a Gelatinous Ocean”: A non‐fiction book proposal

Creator:: Register, Rhett
Abstract:: Jellyfish benefit from many of the changes mankind is making to the ocean. Climate change, overfishing, nutrient runoff, the introduction of invasive species, and coastal development all promote these ancient, gelatinous creatures. Because of their familiarity to readers and affinity for degraded places in the ocean, jellyfish are used to...

A Bayesian approach to habitat suitability prediction

Creator:: Lockett, Daniel Edwin, IV
Abstract:: For the west coast of North America, from northern California to southern Washington, a habitat suitability prediction framework was developed to support wave energy device siting. Concern that wave energy devices may impact the seafloor and benthos has renewed research interest in the distribution of marine benthic invertebrates and factors...

A Broader Overview and Investigation into Seafood Traceability Developments and the Current Landscape for the US West Coast Seafood Industry

Creator:: Ahlers, Brian L.
Abstract:: Seafood is one of the most diverse and highly traded natural resources worldwide. Widespread evidence of increased seafood fraud and IUU fishing has placed enormous pressure on industry and governments to determine the authenticity, safety, and sustainability of seafood. The recently established US National Ocean Council has addressed several gaps...

A community-based approach for evaluating tradeoffs across marine ecosystem services in Oregon

Creator:: Freeman, Peter M.
Abstract:: As competing uses of our coastlines increase, natural resource agencies are employing marine spatial planning (MSP) to designate areas for different uses or activities in order to reduce conflicts while achieving ecological, economic and social objectives. A central challenge of implementing MSP is development of a rigorous approach for analyzing...

A comparison of seafloor sonar classification methods through the use of error matrices and 3 dimensional GIS visualization : a multibeam sonar investigation of Nehalem Bank, Oregon

Creator:: Lanier, Andrew S.
Abstract:: Multibeam sonar data was collected on Nehalem Bank, off of the Oregon Coast with the purpose of increasing the spatial resolution of our knowledge of the area and delineating seafloor habitats. The system used was the Kongsberg Simrad EM-300 operating at 30 kHz. The data set collected includes both topographic...

A comprehensive evaluation of product quality in the Pacific Whiting (Merluccius productus) and Albacore tuna (thunnus alalunga) industries

Creator:: Greene, Elizabeth
Abstract:: In the highly competitive animal protein market, seafood faces increasing pressure to improve and standardize product quality. While there is general consensus that quality can be improved for many seafood products, there is little agreement on the types and levels of characteristics that should define "quality." This is a fundamental...

A cooperative effort to track Humboldt squid invasions in Oregon

Creator:: Chesney, Tanya A.
Abstract:: Interannual variability of Humboldt squid (Dosidicus gigas) occurrence in the northern California Current System is largely unknown. In Oregon, the distribution of this versatile predator and what is influencing their range expansion from Mexico is poorly understood due to the recent nature of their "invasion" and a lack of monitoring....

A draft management plan for the Sapelo Island National Estuarine Sanctuary: a look to 1980 and beyond

Creator:: Snow, Patricia L.
Abstract:: The Sapelo Island National Estuarine Sanctuary (will be referred to as Sapelo Island Estuarine Sanctuary) has been in operation since 1976, but to this date no management plan has been drafted or implemented. Management of the Sanctuary has changed from the management structure outlined in the initial Sanctuary Proposal and...

A framework for the preliminary assessment of vulnerability of fisheries-dependent communities

Creator:: Berns, Richard Hunter and Berns, Richard Hunter
Abstract:: Global climate change is projected to have far-ranging effects on the oceans and marine life. In turn, fisheries will likely undergo changes in their distributions and abundance. Coastal Alaskan communities are often highly dependent on commercial fisheries, and as a result will likely be vulnerable to climate change. The purpose...
