This report is a summary of the current understanding of the climate mitigation potential of Oregon’s coastal and marine habitats.

A new approach to assessing the impacts of hypoxia on fish can be used to compare impacts among species and across other physical, biological, and chemical gradients and environmental change.

Research results suggest that probiotics are effective at preventing bacterial infections in oyster larvae and can significantly improve their performance using a single application early in their development.

This dissertation studied ochre sea stars, Pacific oysters and red abalone.

Researchers investigate whether fishery-dependent time series can be used to fill in spatial and temporal data gaps where scientific, fishery-independent data are not available.

To understand the physiological impacts of vessel traffic on baleen whales, researchers investigated the adrenal stress response of gray whales to variable vessel traffic levels through an assessment of fecal glucocorticoid metabolite concentrations.
