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...
Knowledge of the pelagic organisms in vast areas of the open ocean is very limited. This is particularly true of the small nekton or swimming forms such as fishes, squid, prawns and euphausiids, which are important as intermediate animals in the food chain and are preyed upon by species such...
This report is an intermediate step in analyzing part of the hydrographic data from the 1972 Coastal Upwelling Experiment (CUE) off the coast of Oregon. It presents the author's interpretation of the vertical distribution of temperature, salinity and sigma-t along lines occupied on hydrographic cruises by R/V Yaquina during CUE....
As a result of the past three years of field studies and our interpretation of these and other data from the literature, we conclude that there are inputs of hydrothermal fluids into the bottom of Crater Lake. The dissolved materials associated with these thermally and chemically enriched fluids, coupled with...
The School of Oceanography, Oregon State University, conducted three cruises (May 19-June 2, June 7-22, and September 4-14) in 1982 to study the distribution, abundance, migration, growth and feeding habits of juvenile salmonids during their first summer in the ocean. This is the second year we have had a series...
During February, March and April 1974, the interdisciplinary Coastal
Upwelling Ecosystems Analysis experiment known as JOINT-I took place over
the continental shelf and slope near Cabo Corveiro in the NW African upwelling
region. As part of the field program, Oregon State University
made a series of repeated hydrographic surveys from...
This compilation lists in chronological order the oceanographic reports published in 1972, 1973 and 1974. It is an update of our reference 74-1 which brought together a listing all the numbered series issued, 1955-1973. It also lists theses for which degrees were awarded in 1974. A theses listing for 1962-1973...
In 1955 one oceanography report was issued by Oregon State University. The School of Oceanography now issues between 35 and 50 reports per year. This compilation lists in chronological order all oceanographic reports published through 1973. It also lists theses for which degrees were awarded between 1962 and 1973. Both...
This compilation lists in chronological order the oceanographic reports published in 1974 and 1975. It is the second annual update of our reference 74-1 which brought together a listing of all the numbered series issued, 1955-1973. Reference 75-1 listed 1972-1973 and 1974 reports. It also lists theses for which degrees...
This annual report describes progress in marine radioecological studies
under USAEC Contract Number AT(45-1)2227 Task Agreement 12 during the period
1 July 1970 through 30 June 1971. This contract number replaces USAEC
Contract Number AT(45-1)1750 which started 1 June 1962. Although the basic
report format has not been greatly changed...
The progress report that follows includes research results ranging from unproved ideas to scientific papers published during the tenure of this contract. The end of the contract year finds several facets of our work in various states of preparation, therefore the reader is cautioned that all except the published papers...

This compilation by the School of Oceanography of Oregon State University lists in chronological order the oceanographic reports published in 1977. It also lists theses for which degrees were awarded in 1977. This is the fourth annual update of our reference 74-1 which brought together a listing of all the...
This compilation by the School of Oceanography of Oregon State University lists in chronological order the oceanographic reports published in 1975 and 1976. It also lists theses for which degrees were awarded in 1976. This is the third annual update of our reference 74-1 which brought together a listing of...
In this report we describe a preliminary version of a temperature/conductivity profiler that combines the calibration accuracy of a CTD with the vertical resolution of a microstructure instrument and the ease of deployment of an XBT. We also describe the results of a test of this version on a month-long...
