For several decades, annually recurring blooms of the photosynthetic ciliate Myrionecta rubra have been observed in the Columbia River estuary in late summer. In an effort to understand the dynamics of these blooms, we investigated the genetic variability of M. rubra and its cryptophyte plastids within 3 large estuarine blooms...

To meet societal needs, modern estuarine science needs to be interdisciplinary and collaborative, combine discovery with hypotheses testing, and be responsive to issues facing both regional and global stakeholders. Such an approach is best conducted with the benefit of data-rich environments, where information from sensors and models is openly accessible...
Litter site and birth weight data compiled from the
farrowing records of 275 litters out of 109 purebred
Berkshire sows of the Oregon State University swine herd
during the years 1953 to 1960 inclusive were used in this
study. Genetic and environmental factors influencing
four components of reproductive performance, namely,...
