The Great Tohoku Earthquake and Tsunami of March 2011 generated nearly 1.5 million tons of floating debris. After 1-5 years of drifting with the currents across the Pacific, many debris items reached the NE Pacific coast carrying Japanese marine species that could colonize our shores. More than 84 marine algal...
Erosion is impacting a portion of the Estuary Nature Trail located adjacent to Oregon State University’s Hatfield Marine Science Center (HMSC) facility, located on the south side of the Yaquina Bay estuary approximately one mile from the open waters of the Pacific Ocean. The HMSC Estuary Nature Trail is important...
Stabilization of the Yaquina Bay shoreline along the northeastern edge of the Hatfield Marine Science Center (HMSC) campus became necessary to halt erosion that threatened both HMSC critical infrastructure (seawater storage tank) and public access to the HMSC Nature Trail. A Dynamic Revetment (gravel beach) was installed in November, 2011...
The Hatfield Marine Science Center (HMSC) is an interagency campus in Newport, Oregon with
a mission of research, education and outreach in marine sciences through collaborative
partnerships. Located on a 49 acre site on Yaquina Bay, Oregon, it is adjacent to diverse
habitats, many of which are subject to action...

Disclaimer:
Most of the experimental work referred to in this publication was conducted using an AFOS Mini Kiln of British origin. Although this smoker quite effectively demonstrates the operating characteristics of a modern horizontal flow smoker designed for fish, it is not the only good equipment option available to smoked...
The Marine Bioinvasion Lab is located at Oregon State University's Hatfield Marine Science Center. A major focus is identification of native, introduced and invasive species found in Oregon's estuaries. John Chapman, Ralph Breitenstein and Gayle Hansen compiled this current spreadsheet of the marine algae and invertebrates in the Yaquina and...
To determine the invasion threat to the NE Pacific of marine algae arriving on Japanese debris from the 2011 Great Tōhoku Earthquake and Tsunami, my colleagues and I identified the algal species on 42 of the most heavily fouled debris items that landed on the shores of Oregon and Washington...
