The School of Oceanography, Oregon State University, initiated a study during the spring of 1984 to investigate the utilization of Netarts Bay by juvenile churn salmon. Specific objectives the first year were to determine: 1) the relative numbers of hatchery arid wild churn salmon, 2) the nursery areas utilized by...
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...
In this study we present new information on seasonal variation in absolute growth rate in length of coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch) in the ocean off Oregon and Washington, and relate these changes in growth rate to concurrent changes in the spacing of scale circuli. Average spacing of scale circuli and...

Two methods were used for this assessment: (1)...
NW Rota-1 is a submarine volcano in the Mariana volcanic arc located ~100 km north of Guam.
Underwater explosive eruptions driven by magmatic gases were first witnessed there in 2004 and continued
until at least 2010. During a March 2010 expedition, visual observations documented continuous but
variable eruptive activity at...
