Abundance, movements, and feeding habits of harbor seals, Phoca vitulina, at Netarts and Tillamook Bays, Oregon

Creator:: Brown, Robin F. and Mate, Bruce R.
Abstract:: Patterns of seasonal abundance of harbor seals at Netarts and Tillamook Bays, Oregon, were documented by recording numbers of seals hauling out on tidally exposed sand flats in both bays. Harbor seal abundance at Tillamook Bay peaked during pupping (May-June) and molting (August) periods, while peak abundance at Netarts Bay...

Creator:: Robinson, Nestor M., Hansen, G. I., Fernandez-Garcia, C., and Riosmena-Rodriguez, R.
Abstract:: Lithothamnion rnuelleri is reported for the first time as one of the main components of rhodolith beds along the Eastern Pacific Ocean based on samples from Washington State (USA), Pacific Baja California (Mexico), southern Nicaragua, and Costa Rica. Individual rhodoliths ranged from fruticose to lumpy in morphology, and bi-sporangial, tetrasporangial,...

Albacore oceanography off Oregon : 1970

Creator:: Pearcy, William G.
Abstract:: During July 1970, albacore boats trolling surface jigs (jig boats) had record catches in an area off the mouth of the Columbia River. The jig fishery declined suddenly in late July and was poor throughout the remainder of the summer. No obvious oceanographic changes were correlated with these drastic changes...

Spatial and trophic overlap of marked and unmarked Columbia River Basin spring Chinook salmon during early marine residence with implications for competition between hatchery and naturally produced fish

Creator:: Daly, Elizabeth A., Brodeur, Richard D., Fisher, Joseph P., Weitkamp, Laurie A., Teel, David J., and Beckman, Brian R.
Abstract:: Ecological interactions between natural and hatchery juvenile salmon during their early marine residence, a time of high mortality, have received little attention. These interactions may negatively influence survival and hamper the ability of natural populations to recover. We examined the spatial distributions and size differences of both marked (hatchery) and...

The Center for Independent Experts: The National External Peer Review Program of NOAA's National Marine Fisheries Service

Creator:: Brown, Stephen K., Shivlani, Manoj, Die, David, Sampson, David B., and Ting, Tina A.
Abstract:: Requirements are growing for peer review of the science used for governmental management decisions. This is particularly true for fisheries science, where management decisions are often controversial. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's National Marine Fisheries Service instituted the Center for Independent Experts (CIE) in 1998 as a national peer-review...

Ocean distribution of the American shad (Alosa sapidissima) along the Pacific coast of North America

Creator:: Pearcy, William G. and Fisher, Joseph P.
Abstract:: We examined the incidental catches of American shad (Alosa sapidissima) taken during research cruises and in commercial and recreational landings along the Pacific coast of North America during over 30 years of sampling. Shad, an introduced species, was mainly found over the shallow continental shelf, and largest catches and highest...

Trends in Developed Land Cover Adjacent to Habitat for Threatened Salmon in Puget Sound, Washington, U.S.A.

Creator:: Bartz, Krista K., Ford, Michael J., Beechie, Timothy J., Fresh, Kurt L., Pess, George R., Kennedy, Robert E., Rowse, Melinda L., and Sheer, Mindi
Abstract:: For widely distributed species at risk, such as Pacific salmon (Oncorhynchus spp.), habitat monitoring is both essential and challenging. Only recently have widespread monitoring programs been implemented for salmon habitat in the Pacific Northwest. Remote sensing data, such as Landsat images, are therefore a useful way to evaluate trends prior...

Marine distributions of chinook salmon from the West Coast of North America determined by coded wire tag recoveries

Creator:: Weitkamp, Laurie A.
Abstract:: The coded wire tag (CWT) database contains detailed information on millions of Pacific salmon Oncorhynchus spp. released from hatcheries or smolt traps and recovered in the north Pacific Ocean and its tributaries. I used this data set to examine the spatial and temporal variation in the marine distributions of 77...

Attitudes of Trawl Vessel Captains about Work, Resource Use, and Fishery Management

Creator:: Hanna, Susan S. and Smith, Courtland L.
Abstract:: The fisheries literature embodies critical assumptions about fisherman attitudes and motivations. Common assumptions are that populations of fisherman are homogeneous in motivation and decision making and that they behave in a myopic fashion, ignoring the effects of their fishing activities on the fishery resource. The results of a survey of...

Increased Susceptibility of Juvenile Chinook Salmon to Vibriosis after Exposure to Chlorinated and Aromatic Compounds Found in Contaminated Urban Estuaries

Creator:: Arkoosh, Mary R., Clemons, Ethan, Huffman, Paul, Kagley, Anna N., Casillas, Edmundo, Adams, Nick, Sanborn, Herb R., Collier, Tracy K., and Stein, John E.
Abstract:: Saltwater-adapted juvenile chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha exposed to aromatic and chlorinated compounds, representative of contaminants found in urban estuaries in Puget Sound, have a higher susceptibility to vibriosis than do fish exposed only to the solvent vehicle. Susceptibility to vibriosis was assessed by examining the percent cumulative mortality of the...

Buoyancy regulation by hatchery and wild coho salmon during the transition from freshwater to marine environments

Creator:: Weitkamp, Laurie A.
Abstract:: One aspect of diadromy that has received little attention is buoyancy regulation in fish moving between freshwater and marine environments. Because of density differences between the two water types, fish must alter their whole-fish density (WFD) or they will become positively (float) or negatively (sink) buoyant as they change environments....

Survey of Pathogens in Hatchery Chinook Salmon with Different Out-Migration Histories through the Snake and Columbia Rivers

Creator:: Van Gaest, Ahna L., Dietrich, Joseph P., Thompson, D. E., Boylen, Deborah A., Strickland, Stacy A., Collier, T. K., Loge, F. J., and Arkoosh, Mary R.
Abstract:: The operation of the Federal Columbia River Power System (FCRPS) has negatively affected threatened and endangered salmonid populations in the Pacific Northwest. Barging Snake River spring Chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha through the FCRPS is one effort to mitigate the effect of the hydrosystem on juvenile salmon out-migration. However, little is...

Creator:: Kastelle, Craig R., Helser, Thomas E., Black, Bryan A., Stuckey, Matthew J., Gillespie, Darlene C., McArthur, Judy, Little, Diana, Charles, Karen D., and Khan, Reziah S.
Abstract:: The bivalve Pacific geoduck (Panopea generosa) has been used in the eastern North Pacific Ocean to create proxies for environmental factors such as temperature and oceanographic conditions. This type of research depends upon accurate age determination of Pacific geoducks, which historically was based on shell growth-increment counts. A recent study...

Surface distribution of brachyuran megalopae and ichthyoplankton in the Columbia River plume during transition from downwelling to upwelling conditions

Creator:: Roegner, G. Curtis, Daly, Elizabeth A., and Brodeur, Richard D.
Abstract:: In the California Current coastal boundary zone, the spring transition between downwelling and upwelling conditions, along with the fluctuating structure of the Columbia River plume, creates highly dynamic interactions. In this study, we investigated whether the surface distribution of brachyuran larvae and ichthyoplankton would track the dynamics of the Columbia...

Abstract:: Growth increment widths from hard structures of marine and freshwater fish and bivalve species are increasingly used to model growth and elucidate relationships with environmental variability. Fully characterizing the intrinsic age-related growth variation among individuals within and between populations, while estimating the extrinsic environmental effects simultaneously, can be challenging.
