In the summer of 1931, the author investigated Tillamook, Netarts, and Alsea bays to determine their suitability for oyster culture. He also investigated the state of oyster growing in Yaquina Bay, the only place in the state where oysters were grown commercially. This is an unpublished manuscript that was distributed...
Alternative male phenotypes in salmonine fishes arise from individuals that mature as larger and older anadromous marine-migrants or as smaller and younger freshwater residents. To better understand the processes influencing the expression of these phenotypes we examined the influences of growth in length (fork length) and whole body lipid content...
We described and predicted spatial variation in marine migration (anadromy) of female Oncorhynchus mykiss in the John Day River watershed, Oregon. We collected 149 juvenile O. mykiss across 72 sites and identified locations used by anadromous females by assigning maternal origin (anadromous versus non-anadromous) to each juvenile. These assignments used...
Studies were conducted to establish some characters which
could be used, either in the field or in the laboratory, to differentiate
between annual ryegrass (Oregon), Lolium multiflorum Lam. , and
Linn perennial ryegrass, Lolium perenne L.
Vernation, percentage of glumes covering the spikelets, and
height of seedlings seem to be...
This paper describes a method for measuring nearshore ocean wave characteristics with a land-based, long-period vertical seismometer. The wavemeter system has proven to be highly reliable and produces continuous wave observations at low cost. It is now operational at six Coast Guard stations along the Oregon and Washington coasts; data...
The paper analyses the annual accounts for the period 1990-94 of a sample of approximately 100 fishing firms operating out of ports in Schleywig-Holstein and exploiting finfish stocks in the North Sea and Baltic, and shrimp stocks in the North Sea. Detailed information is provided on costs and returns by...
