Waters of various salinities were secured from the Umpqua
estuary, the Umpqua River, and the open ocean near the mouth of the
estuary. The rate of oxidation of sulfides in these various waters
was investigated to assess the potential longevity of free sulfides in
estuarine waters.
The rate of disappearance...
Monthly samples of nutrients, phytoplankton and zooplankton
were taken in the Columbia River estuary over a period of 16 months
in order to determine distribution with season and salinity, and interrelationships
between plankton and nutrients.
Nitrate and phosphate levels in the river water entering the
estuary are high in the...
High-resolution measurements of salinity, temperature, and partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO2) taken at Whiskey Creek Shellfish Hatchery, Netarts Bay, Oregon, from 2014 - 2019 are provided in this data set. Briefly, a permanently submerged pipe draws in bay water to supply the shellfish hatchery tanks. Unmodified water is branched...
