Oregon's commercial fishery for albacore tuna (Thunnus alalunga)
is large, valuable, and variable. Little is known, however, about the
oceanographic factors which determine abundance and distribution of
albacore.
Primarily using logbook data contributed by fishermen, this study
compares albacore catches with selected ocean conditions. The study
is limited to troll-caught...
The relationship between sea level and wind stress in a region of
known upwelling was studied for an eleven-month period during
1933-34.
Sea level data, obtained from observations taken by the Coast and
Geodetic Survey, were processed to remove astronomic tidal constituents
and inverted barometer effect. Regression analysis was used...

The first part of this thesis distinguishes modern celebrity – including its morality – from other types of fame, explores the intersection of celebrity and gender through the...
The purpose of this study is to examine the hypothesis that diel variations occur in the catches of albacore by boats trolling surface jigs off Oregon. Although albacore fishermen talk of "morning bites" and "evening bites," no published data exist, to our knowledge, confirming these trends.
Studies on the feeding...
