Evaluation of dungeness crab pots as platforms of opportunity for ocean-observing research

Creator:: Childress, Jeremy L.
Abstract:: Oregon Fishermen in Ocean Observing Research (OrFIOOR) is a cooperative research program between ocean scientists and fishermen in the Pacific Northwest. Dungeness crab fishermen attach sensor packages (temperature and dissolved oxygen) to crab pots. The pots serve as platforms of opportunity for ocean observing. This study examines three principle questions...

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...

An experimental investigation of the effects of temperature and dissolved oxygen on the growth of juvenile English sole and juvenile Dungeness crab

Creator:: Bancroft, Morgan P.
Abstract:: In the past two decades, occurrences of summertime upwelling-driven low dissolved oxygen (DO) events, or hypoxia, have increased along the northeast Pacific coast. If hypoxic events are severe enough to cause marine species mortality, the areas affected are often called "dead zones." In 2002 and again in 2006, the events...

Fishing for Hypoxia: Exploring Coastal Oxygen Dynamics and Predictability of Low Oxygen Episodes through a Partnership with the Oregon Dungeness Crab Fishing Fleet

Creator:: Stoltz, Linus O.
Abstract:: Coastal hypoxia, or low oxygen episodes pose a threat to marine resources in the Pacific Northwest. Previous research into nearshore oxygen dynamics have linked coastal upwelling to this seasonally occurring phenomenon, however the manifestation of hypoxic waters over coastal fishing grounds was not well understood. Through a partnership with Dungeness...

An internship at NWAFC : The Bering Sea crab database

Creator:: McDowell, Michael K.
Abstract:: I served an internship with the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS), Northwest and Alaska Fisheries Center (NWAFC), Resource Assessment and Conservation Engineering (RACE) division in Seattle, Washington from June, 1983 to December, 1983. This experience proved to be very rewarding because of the techniques I learned, the job experience I...

The Chilean King Crab Industry : A Descriptive Analysis

Creator:: Montero, Gustavo Antonio
Abstract:: One of the most important fisheries of the Austral zone, corresponding to the Magallanes area and the Magellan Strait, is the king crab (Centolla), Lithodes antarctica. The basic objective of this project is to describe the fisheries of this resource from an economic-biological stand point.

Eyes on the Seafloor : Using Video Tools to Monitor Benthic Communities at Dredged Material Disposal Sites at the Mouth of the Columbia River

Creator:: Fields, Stephanie A.
Abstract:: The mouth of the Columbia River (MCR) is an intersection of more than a river and ocean, but also multiple economically valuable activities including dredging to maintain a deep draft shipping channel and an active Dungeness crab (Metacarcinus magister) fishery. More than three million cubic meters of sediment are annually...

Utilization of the Non-Native Seagrass, Zostera japonica, by Crab and Fish in Pacific Northwest Estuaries

Creator:: Sund, Daniel M.
Abstract:: The introduction of non-native species often results in fundamental changes in the structure and function of disturbed environments. In the Pacific Northwest (PNW), the introduced seagrass Zostera japonica is rapidly expanding in distribution, impacting stakeholders and public use of the intertidal. Z. japonica’s expansion has prompted a number of different...

Emerging Impacts Resulting from the Implementation of the United States Pacific Coast Groundfish Trawl Rationalization Program

Creator:: Thompson, Jenny
Abstract:: On January 11, 2011, the Pacific Fishery Management Council (PFMC) instituted a catch share program for the West Coast groundfish trawl fishery. The program was intended to create a more sustainable fishery and increase economic efficiency through the use of individual fishing quotas and fishing cooperatives. While there are extensive...

Fishermen in Ocean Observing Research

Creator:: Holmes, Susan
Abstract:: Recent observational programs to understand the coastal ocean, like the Oregon Coastal Ocean Observing System (OrCOOS) are under development (www.orcoos.org). A challenge in facing observing systems is achieving spatial and temporal coverage at scales that are useful for ocean modeling. Observational buoys are relatively few and towed arrays and gliders...
