Characterization of ecosystem structure and function recovery within the NOAA MOC-P mitigation basin, Newport, Oregon

Creator:: Lewis, Nate S.
Abstract:: Seagrass ecosystems are considered some of the most productive coastal habitats in the world. One such seagrass within estuaries of the Pacific Northwest, Zostera marina (eelgrass), is recognized to be an ecosystem engineering species that provides many important ecosystem functions and services. In 2010, construction of the National Oceanic and...

Juvenile Rockfish (Sebastes spp.) Community Composition and Habitat use of Yaquina Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Lindsley, Amy J.
Abstract:: Estuaries, which provide viable habitat for a plethora of fish and invertebrate species, are being increasingly impacted by anthropogenic and natural forces. Estuaries are important nursery habitat for young-of-the-year (YOY) Pacific rockfish (Sebastes spp.). Yaquina Bay, a marine-dominated estuary on the central Oregon Coast, served as a study site for...

A Plan for Implementing a Clean Marina Program in Oregon

Creator:: Feindel, Kristin B.
Abstract:: Nonpoint source pollution is currently the major source of water pollution in Oregon as well as the United States as a whole. The Environmental Protection Agency designated marinas as one of the sources of nonpoint pollution to coastal waters. In an effort to reduce nonpoint pollution from marinas and to...

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...

Impacts of dredged material disposal on estuarine benthic macrofaunal communities in Coos Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Erman, Lisa T.
Abstract:: Hopper dredge disposal of coarse grained sediment was investigated between May and September, 1986, at a designated disposal area, Site G, in Coos Bay, Oregon. The objectives of the study were to: (a) identify and describe the benthic macrofaunal community structure at Site G during May and September, 1986; (b)...

Juvenile coho salmon movement and migration through tide gates

Creator:: Bass, Arthur
Abstract:: Tidal marshlands in the upper estuary ecotone provide essential habitat for juvenile salmonids. In this environment, salmonids grow rapidly and acclimate to saltwater. Worldwide, tidal marshes have been diked and drained to provide agricultural and residential land. Tide gates are one-way doors integrated into dike systems that prevent saltwater flooding...

The development and evaluation of an interactive exhibit to support real-time water quality data interpretation by the public at an informal education setting

Creator:: Mikulak, Sarah E.
Abstract:: Ocean observing groups are currently making efforts to work with well-defined end-user groups, like boaters and fishermen, to provide meaningful and effective real-time data (RTD) products and visualizations. However, providing meaningful data products for undefined groups such as the general public is not straightforward. In Oregon, several industry, science, and...

Communicating science : developing an exhibit with scientists and educators

Creator:: Lemagie, Emily
Abstract:: Outreach is a small, but significant component to modern research. Developing an exhibit for public display can be an effective way to communicate science to broad audiences, although it may be a less familiar method to scientists than writing papers or giving presentations. I outline the process of developing an...
