Hopper dredge disposal of coarse grained sediment was
investigated between May and September, 1986, at a designated disposal
area, Site G, in Coos Bay, Oregon. The objectives of the study were
to: (a) identify and describe the benthic macrofaunal community
structure at Site G during May and September, 1986; (b)...
"The general objective of research . . . was to determine mechanisms that control the production dynamics of benthic plants and associated epiphytes in Netarts Bay relative to physical processes and changing patterns of nutrient distribution. . ."
Fossil foraminifers from the Coaledo and Bastendorff Formations
near Coos Bay in southwestern Oregon were studied in an attempt
to determine the age and environment of deposition. Fresh unweathered
samples were collected from sea cliffs between Cape
Arago and Charleston, Oregon.

The need to preserve Oregon's estuaries has been expressed
through the Land Conservation and Development Commission's Estuarine
Resources Goal 16. The first use of the mitigation guideline set forth
in this goal is in the Coos Bay estuary. The proposed North Bend
Airport runway extension will fill 32 acres (13...
Station data (weather, cloud cover, air temperature, salinity, water temperature, current velocity, tide stage and height, hydrogen sulphide and pH) are presented for eleven stations in and near Coos Bay. These data were collected over a three year period several times a day at approximately bi-weekly intervals.
