Vertical distribution patterns of plankton and their relationship to physical factors over the continental shelf off Oregon

Creator:: Sutor, Malinda
Abstract:: Discrete layers of phytoplankton and zooplankton were observed over the Oregon continental shelf in summer and fall of 2001 and summer 2002 using optical and acoustical technologies and a pump sampling system. Layers of phytoplankton had steep vertical gradients which were associated with gradients in density and local peaks in...

Trophic dynamics of marine nekton and zooplankton in the Northern California Current ecosystem

Creator:: Miller, Todd William
Abstract:: The Northern California Current (NCC) ecosystem exhibits extreme seasonal, interannual and interdecadal shifts in the abiotic environment and shifts in primary and higher production. This variability is also apparent in the spatial structure of the ecosystem with nearshore-shelf waters (<150 m isobath) being highly productive and having a different community...

The role of oxygen and other environmental variables on survivorship, abundance, and community structure of invertebrate meroplankton of Oregon nearshore coastal waters

Creator:: Eerkes-Medrano, Dafne I.
Abstract:: The high productivity of Eastern Boundary Upwelling Ecosystems (EBUE), some of the most productive ecosystems in the globe, is attributed to the nutrient rich waters brought up through upwelling. Climate change scenarios for coastal upwelling systems, predict an intensification of coastal upwelling winds. Associated with intensification in upwelling are biogeochemical...

The Oregon placer mineral technical task force : Resources, management, and potential impacts

Creator:: Ross, Susan
Abstract:: In September 1988, the U.S. Secretary of the Interior and the Governor of Oregon announced the creation of the joint state-federal Placer Minerals Technical Task Force. The group was charged with performing an analysis of the potential economic and environmental aspects of placer mineral mining in the nearshore waters of...

The Oregon oceanbook : an introduction to the Pacific Ocean off Oregon including its physical setting and living marine resources

Creator:: Parmenter, Tish, Bailey, Robert, Oregon. Department of Land Conservation and Development, and Oregon State University. Sea Grant College Program
Abstract:: The Oceanbook focuses on the ocean environment from the coastline to roughly 200 miles offshore, the limit of U.S. jurisdic-tion, and from Cape Mendocino, California, to Vancouver Island, British Columbia. We excluded the intertidal area of interest to low-tide beachcombers from the Oceanbook because this area is well covered in...

The development of methods for studying physical and biological processes in the nearshore zone on the Pacific Coast of the United States

Creator:: Holton, Robert L., Elliott, William P., Crawford, Janice, Johnson, Kenneth, Mullikin, Carolyn, Pearson, Walter, and Smith, Linda
Abstract:: The following progress report presents a summary of the work conducted through January of 1973 as specified in our proposal, "The Develooment of Methods for Studying Physical and Biological Processes in the Nearshore Zone on the Pacific Coast of the United States," suooorted by the Eugene Water and Electric Board,...

Temperature relations of central Oregon marine intertidal invertebrates : a prepublication technical report to the Office of Naval Research

Creator:: Gonor, Jefferson J. and Hedgpeth, Joel Walker, 1911-
Abstract:: This report is concerned with environmental and animal internal temperatures in the intertidal zone at low tide. Daily sea surface temperatures at Agate Beach, Ore., are compared to weekly measurements made near-by. Greater range and fluctuations are revealed by daily measurements. Data are provided on animal internal temperatures at low...

Surfgrasses (Phyllospadix spp.) as dynamic foundation species for macroinvertebrates along the Oregon coast

Creator:: Moulton, Orissa M.
Abstract:: Foundation species are important components of ecosystems because they provide habitat and ameliorate stressful conditions for residents. This thesis considers the role of surfgrasses (Phyllospadix spp.) as dynamic foundation species on the coast of Oregon in two studies. Chapter 2, which presents an observational survey of two Phyllospadix congeners, investigates...

Submersible observations of deep-reef fishes of Heceta Bank, Oregon

Creator:: Pearcy, William G., Stein, David L., Hixon, Mark Anthony, Pikitch, Ellen K., Barss, William H., and Starr, Richard M.
Abstract:: Rockfishes, Sebastes spp.. were the most numerous and speciose fishes seen during 16 submersible dives from 64 to 305 m depth in the vicinity of Heceta Bank off the coast of Oregon. Dense schools of juvenile rockfishes and large yellowtail rockfish, S. flavidus, were observed only over rocky, high relief...
