Wecoma cruise W8705A was conducted in May 1987 as part of the pilot study for the Coastal Transition Zone project. CTD observations were made in the coastal transition zone off northern California between 37.5°N and 41.5°N. Stations were planned along three alongshore transects, at distances of 60, 90 and 150...
Wecoma cruise W8806A was conducted in June 1988 as part of the pilot study for the Coastal Transition Zone project. CTD observations were made over a standard grid in the coastal transition zone off northern California between 37° N and 39.5° N that was to be occupied repeatedly during June,...
The National Natural Landmarks (NNL) Program encourages the preservation of exceptional examples of the Nation’s biological and geological features. To qualify for NNL designation, a site must be one of the best examples of a geological or biological feature within a biophysiographic province. Round Top Butte includes a basaltic butte...

Bycatch of non-targeted species in marine fisheries has become a major policy issue in fisheries management over recent years. One approach to curbing the bycatch problem is the voluntary sharing of detailed spatiotemporal information between vessels as an aide in individual bycatch avoidance as well as a tool to lower...
The objective of this workshop was to identify studies that should be conducted to properly
determine potential effects from power generating buoys on marine mammals of the Oregon
coast, with emphasis on cetaceans and focal discussion on gray whales. Special emphasis was put
