Development and erosion history of Bayocean Spit, Tillamook, Oregon

Creator:: Terich, Thomas A. and Komar, Paul D., 1939-
Abstract:: Bayocean sand spit lies along the northern Oregon coast approximately 70 miles south of the Columbia River. Work was begun on the construction of a large recreational resort on the spit in the early 1900's. At the outset, the resort appeared to have a promising future. However, a three-year delay...

The Erosion of Siletz Spit, Oregon

Creator:: Rea, Campbell Cary
Abstract:: Siletz Bay is a drowned river valley filled with Holocene alluvial and estuarine sediments and is separated from the ocean by a sand spit 3.8 km in length. Since the area was settled by white man in the 1890's, the bay has apparently experienced rapid siltation, due to increased farming...

Shoreline changes due to jetty construction on the Oregon Coast

Creator:: Lizarraga Arciniega, Jose Roman
Abstract:: Patterns of beach erosion and accretion due to jetty construction are examined for the coast of Oregon. All jetty systems are included with the exception of those on the Columbia River, making a total of nine systems. All evidence indicates that these areas of the Oregon coast are experiencing a...

Sediment accumulation and human impacts in Tillamook Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Styllas, Michael N.
Abstract:: Tillamook Bay is the second largest estuary on the Oregon coast, and concerns have been raised whether human induced impacts have been responsible for the perceived increase in sedimentation rates during the past century. Major land-use practices within the five watersheds of the Bay include logging, forest fires, the construction...

Breaking waves : a review of theory and measurements

Creator:: Gaughan, Michael Kenneth, Komar, Paul D., 1939-, and Nath, John H.
Abstract:: Theoretical b:::-eaking criteria for progressive surface gravity waves are examined, and laboratory and field experiments concerned with breaking waves are reviewed with respect to the testing of these breaking criteria. The measurements of Komar and Simmons are presented here for the first time. Only three theoretical breaking criteria have been...

Analysis of benthic infauna communities and sedimentation patterns of a proposed fill site and nearby regions in the Columbia River Estuary

Creator:: Higley, Duane L., Holton, Robert L., Komar, Paul D., 1939-, and McMechan, Karla J.
Abstract:: The Port of Astoria has proposed to fill a 32.4 hectare inter- and subtidal area at the mouth of Youngs Bay, Columbia River, Oregon. The possible effects of this fill on the biota and sedimentation patterns of this area were studied from 31 August 1975 to 29 February 1976. Part...
