A Bayesian approach to marine spatial planning

Creator:: Erhardt, Morgan William
Abstract:: The marine ecosystem provides a broad spectrum of services for a wide array of user groups. Such broad use of marine resources often results in use conflicts between ecosystem elements and human interests. To help mitigate these conflicts, the Bayesian Analysis for Spatial Siting (BASS) tool was developed to incorporate...

A statistical study of Oregon coastal winds

Creator:: Detweiler, John Henry
Abstract:: The data recorded between March 3, 1969, and October 31, 1969, by a wind gauge installed at the South Jetty, Newport, Oregon, were analyzed. The components of each observation were treated as if they were an independent, normal, bivariate distribution and standard statistical procedures were applied. It was found that...

Above and Below : Oregon Coastal Phytoplankton Bloom Dynamics from Sea and Space

Creator:: McKibben, S. Morgaine
Abstract:: Phytoplankton are a sentinel class of organisms in the marine environment. Through their photosynthetic activity in sunlit waters worldwide, phytoplankton shape the health and productivity of marine ecosystems and impact the global climate. In this work a range of ocean sensing technologies (via ships, surf zone sampling, moorings, gliders, and...

Abrupt deglacial climate changes in the North Pacific and implications for climate tipping points

Creator:: Praetorius, Summer Kate
Abstract:: Paleoclimate archives have revealed abrupt climate events that are superimposed on more gradual climate changes throughout the last glacial and deglacial periods. The underlying causes of such rapid climate changes are still poorly understood, but the strong expression of these events in northern hemisphere records likely points to climatic mechanisms...

An experimental evaluation of a passive anti-roll tank system

Creator:: Plank, William Sanford
Abstract:: The effectiveness of the passive anti-roll tank system aboard the R/V YAQUINA was determined. Measurements of ship roll, effective waveslope and tank water transfer were analyzed using a systems analysis technique. Time series of the inputs and outputs of the ship/tank system and of the tank itself were processed using...

An investigation of the distribution and abundance of ichthyoplankton and juvenile benthic fishes in relation to nearshore hypoxia within the Northern California Current system

Creator:: Johnson, Angela M.
Abstract:: Nearshore hypoxia within the Northern California Current (NCC) system is a seasonal phenomenon caused by coastal upwelling and occurs mainly during late-summer and early fall. The effects of low oxygen levels on fish and invertebrate communities, particularly during early-life history stages, however, are poorly known for this area. I investigated...

An X-radiographic study of the October 2000 Po River flood deposit, Italy

Creator:: Hunt, Louise
Abstract:: During October 2000 the Po River, Italy's largest river, experienced a historically significant flood, producing a deposit on the adjacent prodelta. In December 2000 an event-response study of the deposit was conducted, and during the ensuing 16 months three additional sampling cruises were conducted to study the subsequent evolution of...
