This report has been prepared in support of the Pacific Northwest
Coastal Ecosystems Regional Study (PNCERS) to provide
a summary and compendium of the management of estuaries
in the Pacific Northwest of the United States that lie between Puget
Sound, Washington, and Cape Mendocino, California. Federal, state,
and local government...
The purpose of this report is to document the depth and breadth of research, education, and outreach activities in coastal and ocean sciences at Oregon State University. The scale and diversity of those activities are not well known outside of OSU, and in fact they are significantly underestimated, even by...
Varieties of several kinds of vegetables were observed in conjunction with breeding programs. Unless otherwise noted, plots were 10–20 feet long, in 36-foot rows, and received about 450 lb/acre (about 10 lb/1,000 ft2) of 12-29-10-4 fertilizer banded prior to planting. Water was applied every 7–14 days as needed. The soil...

The concentration of dissolved molybdenum has been determined in several profiles from the Northeast Pacific Ocean. The salinity-normalized concentration is essentially constant in all open-ocean samples (107 nM, lσ = 2.5 nM). The dissolved distribution is not significantly affected by biological cycling.
Physical, optical, and acoustical data from Monterey Bay, California, USA, describing the distributions of phytoplankton, zooplankton, and small fish as well as gradients in the physical habitat were used to examine the interactions between vertically compressed plankton structures (thin layers), their consumers, and the local physical forces they experience. The...
