The 1967 report includes catch/effort data, a review of major fisheries, and data on dispersion of tagged fish. The Technical Sub-Committee made an important recommendation to rescind the winter closure of the petrale sole fishery. The Sub-Committee voiced concern about the growing presence of Soviet and Japanese fishing vessels off...
The 1963 report includes status reports on important bottomfish fisheries, a review of catch/effort assessment techniques, a catalog of market sampling techniques, a summary of otter trawl regulations, and preliminary results of fish-tagging experiments.
In addition to the standard reports on the status of major fisheries, catch/effort data, and cumulative groundfish tag recoveries, the 1968 report focused on the developing hake fishery and international fishery issues. A new agreement with the Soviet Union lessened the presence of the Soviet fishing fleet off the coast....
The 1966 report was concerned with catch/effort data, reports on the statuses of major fisheries, reviews of data procedures, current research and joint projects, and dispersions of tagged fish. Other matters touched on include the developing hake fishery and increased international fishing off the Washington and Oregon coasts.
The 1971 report includes catch/effort data and reviews of the major groundfish fisheries. The report also includes historic trawl fishery data of all agencies and their current market sampling techniques.
The purpose of the study was to identify a list of skills, knowledges and related factors that are common to fourteen occupational cluster areas representative of the work community of Oregon. PROCEDURES A list of skills, knowledges and related factors needed for successful employment was derived from existing task analyses...
During an oceanographic cruise of the "E. W. Scripps" in May, 1939, off the coast of Oregon, four small, post-larval specimens of Anoplopoma fimitrita were taken at the surface of the sea with a dip net at two of the hydrographic stations off Cascade Head, Oregon.
Fire and other catastrophic disturbance events in the Douglas-fir forests of the Oregon Coast Range have been significant in determining the distribution of stand age classes and, hence, habitat. Except for the past half century, knowledge of fire in the region has largely been local and anecdotal. The Douglas-fir forests...
Local stability seems to imply global stability for population models. To investigate this claim, we formally define a population model. This definition seems to include the one-dimensional discrete models now in use. We derive a necessary and sufficient condition for the global stability of our defined class of models. We...
For the probabilistic model of shuffling by random transpositions we provide a coupling construction
with the expected coupling time of order C*n*log(n), where C is a moderate constant. We enlarge the
methodology of coupling by including intuitive non-Markovian coupling rules. We discuss why a typical
Markovian coupling is not always...
