Oregon's estuaries are important ecosystems for scientific study. Consequently, knowledge of what research has been conducted helps us identify benchmarks and plan new projects. A comprehensive bibliography of published research, technical reports, local documents, and data sets is one means of recording this knowledge. For these reasons, the Guin Library...
Archival information about fish and water in the Umpqua Basin can be found in reports housed in disparate locations (e.g., offices of various State and Federal agencies and local organizations). A comprehensive bibliography of grey literature, important or uncataloged reports, and published reports is one means of recording what research...
The Umpqua River estuary was seined and gilinetted during the summer of 1972 to estimate the composition and distribution of fishes. The number of species collected at most sites averaged from four to six per seine haul and was relatively constant throughout the estuary. The number of fish
collected per...
This report discusses anticipated problems associated with the pollution of the Umpqua River estuary in Oregon. The method of studying these problems by oceanographical techniques is outlined. Proposed studies relating to the Umpqua River Basin are examined.
Oceanographic data collected in the Umpqua River Estuary, Oregon, during the period April 26-27, 1961, are tabulated. Temperature, salinity, velocity, and dissolved oxygen were observed at various depths over one tidal cycle at a mid-channel anchor station located near the mouth of the river.
Oceanographic data collected in the Umpqua River Estuary, Oregon, during the period December 14-15, 1960, are tabulated. Temperature, salinity and velocity were: measured from the surface to the bottom at approximately five-foot intervals at four stations in the estuary. Oxygen samples were collected at depth on four occasions.
Oceanographic data collected in the Umpqua River Estuary, Oregon, during the period January 25-26, 1961, are tabulated. Temperature, salinity, velocity, and oxygen were observed at various depths over one tidal cycle at one station. Temperature and salinity observations were made from the ocean to 11.5 miles upstream upon completion of...
This investigation is focused on smallmouth bass in the Umpqua River system. This investigation contains methods of fish sampling used and, later, describes which methods were more effective for specific tasks. It includes population size, density/structure, mortality rates, and age/growth data regarding the smallmouth bass. See also: Umpqua River smallmouth...
