Selecting ‘optimal’ strategies to manage Oregon ocean shrimp is challenged by uncertain and variable natural mortality,
recruitment, and growth. Fishery management is focused on measures to prevent long-term biological damage to the stock,
to protect age-1 shrimp from overharvest and to sustain long term fishery benefits. Developing harvest strategies such...
We hypothesized that bycatch may affect the quality of the shrimp by causing breakage. A double-rigged commercial shrimp vessel was chartered for test fishing. One net employed a Nordmore grate BRD and the other served as a control. Bycatch was measured from each net.
The shrimp catch was kept separate...
Current meter moorings were recovered and deployed off of Coos Bay at 43°13'N, off of Crescent City at 41°54'N, off of Half Moon Bay at 37°25'N and off of Pt. Purisima at 34°45'N during 28-29 January 1982. CTD observations were made off of Coos Bay at 43°13 1 N, off...
CTD observations were made in the CODE region near Pt. Arena on the northern California coast at 39°N, off Coos Bay, Oregon at 43°13'N, off Crescent City at 41°541N, and off Half Moon Bay at 37°25'N. The observations in the CODE region included two repeated sections along the Central Line,...
A summary of the first year of the THEMIS observation program is presented. The observations were made from November, 1968 to November, 1969. The primary measurements were time series of current velocity with supplementary data of wind velocity. The emphasis is on the methods of observation and the procedures used...
Coastal sea level, atmospheric pressure and wind speed and direction are measured routinely at Newport, Oregon. The tide gage is situated just inside Yaquina Bay and has been operating continuously since February 1967. Atmospheric pressure is measured at the Oregon State University Marine Science Center, very near the tide gage;...
