Integration of submersible transect data andhigh-resolution sonar imagery for a habitat-based groundfish assessment of Heceta Bank, Oregon

Creator:: Nasby, Nicole M.
Abstract:: Dramatic declines in several groundfish populations have occurred along the U.S. West Coast during the last decade (PFMC 1999, Sampson 1997, Ralston 1998, Bloeser 1999). One problem exacerbating these declines is insufficient stock assessments, especially for species of west coast rockfish (Family Scorpaenidae, Genus Sebastes) which comprise the core of...

Oregon coastal community water supply assessment

Creator:: Achterman, Gail, Davis-Born, Renee, Rolston, Irene, and Gaines, Lisa
Abstract:: On the Oregon coast, however, the issue of water supply has become paramount, especially given the need to restore instream flows in order to restore coastal salmon runs and meet water quality standards. With the ebb and flow of population and the economic growth of Oregon coastal communities, three hypotheses...

The Distribution and Abundance of a Non-native Eelgrass, Zostera japonica, in Oregon Estuaries

Creator:: Dudoit, Chana Makale’a
Abstract:: Biological introductions may considerably alter the composition and community dynamics of invaded areas thereby changing many ecosystem processes including productivity, decomposition, nutrient cycling and hydrology. The effects on native species may be obscured by a lack of information on distribution and abundance patterns. The Japanese eelgrass, Zostera japonica, was introduced...
