Creator:: Brumo, Abel F.
Abstract:: Recently, there has been concern over the decline of the Pacific lamprey, Lampetra tridentata, in the northwestern United States. However, effective management has been impeded by data gaps in basic biology, especially in the early life stages. Consequently, in 2004 and 2005 I examined reproductive ecology, larval recruitment, and lamprey...

Creator:: Whitmire, Curt E.
Abstract:: Dramatic declines in many species of demersal fishes off the West Coast have resulted in the designation of nine commercially important species as being overfished. While the causes of those declines are not clearly understood, the fact remains that a paucity of life history and abundance data exists for many...

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...

Creator:: Shaff, Courtney D.
Abstract:: Stream restoration techniques in western Oregon and Washington include physical habitat restoration and more recently the addition of salmon carcasses to improve food availability for juvenile fish. Although both are common practices, few studies have examined the effects of carcass placement and the interaction of nutrient enrichment with physical habitat...

Creator:: Duncan, Corinne M.
Abstract:: Expansion of Juniperus occidentalis into the sagebrush steppe has resulted in significant changes in understory composition. A consequence of increased J. occidentalis dominance may be a depletion of the seed bank. The potential for depletion is problematic because a reduction in the amount of species available from the seed bank...

Creator:: Castelao, Renato Menezes
Abstract:: The effects of alongshore variability in topography (banks and capes) and spatial variability in the wind forcing, including the wind-stress curl, on coastal ocean circulation are studied using a combination of observations and model simulations. Satellite sea surface temperature observations are used to describe the seasonal evolution of temperature fronts...

Creator:: Fluharty, Suzanne M.
Abstract:: This dissertation looks at one landscape component of the Coquille Indian Tribe's ancestral lands in order to understand the place meaning created and assigned to Euphoria Ridge, Oregon. I focus on three cultural overlays across time that together with the unique biophysical components, generate an importance for the locale to...

Creator:: Sagar, Jina P.
Abstract:: Barriers to the movement of aquatic organisms can increase the genetic and spatial isolation of populations and may decrease the viability of these regional populations. Focus on culvert passage issues has increased as federal agencies attempt to inventory and replace road-crossing stream culverts that are barriers to the movement of...
