Unintended effects of hatcheries are much more difficult and costly to assess than evaluating the benefits of hatchery production to provide harvest opportunities.

A blog devoted to biota on marine debris from the 3/11/2011 Japanese tsunami.

The impacts of North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) and El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on Great Lakes ice cover were investigated.

The leptothecate hydroid Sertularella mutsuensis Stechow, 1931 is reported on debris from the 2011 Japanese tsunami that came ashore on 5 June 2012 at Agate Beach north of Newport, Oregon.

This paper describes a project to model river basins as complex social-ecological systems.

The overall goals of this study were to quantify linkages between conservation practices and biophysical responses, including water quality and biological indicators, and to develop a model to assess tradeoffs between agricultural practices that maximize

Authors investigate the species-specific ecological mechanisms influencing the geomorphology of U.S. Pacific Northwest coastal dunes.

The distribution of PAHs isolated from mesozooplankton extracted in this study shows that the 2010 Deepwater Horizon spill may have contributed to contamination in the northern Gulf of Mexico ecosystem.

A video study of 41 families at four touch-tank exhibits, where visitors can observe and interact with live marine species, revealed that families engaged in making claims, challenging claims, and confirming claims as well as other actions associated with

The release of active chitosan fragment from the film matrix acts as an antibacterial agent, making β-chitosan films suitable as intelligent food wraps or coatings for a wide range of food products to control moisture loss and prevent surface bacterial gr

This paper presents 2 studies, conducted from 2007 to 2010, that examine thermal effects on C. shasta–induced mortality in native Klamath River Chinook (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and coho (Oncorhynchus kisutch) salmon.

This paper describes the key components of a consensus-building activity on environmental issues; while we present one example, we describe how similar activities can be built around other environmental issues.

Three minute video on how to feed a giant octopus.

The purpose of Oregon’s Nearshore Research Inventory (NRI) project was to inventory and map the current and future use of Oregon’s nearshore environment by the scientific research community for use in Oregon’s marine spatial planning process.

The myxozoan parasite Ceratomyxa shasta is a significant pathogen of juvenile salmonids in the Pacific Northwest of North America and is limiting recovery of Chinook (Oncorhynchus tshawytscha) and coho (O. kisutch) salmon populations in the Klamath River.

Power point presentation regarding tsunami debris and invasive species

How NANOOS is working with coastal wave modelers to provide information on wave conditions offshore the coasts of Oregon and Washington

A large-scale planning and mapping effort was motivated in Oregon by the potential for permanent structures to be placed off the coast.

Technical report to the 2013 National Climate Assessment

Oregon’s ocean waters are a potential source of wind, wave, and tidal energy; of interest to renewable energy entrepreneurs and to the U.S. government as it seeks to bolster energy security.

Scientific visualizations are an important tool of the knowledge economy in information societies (Webster, 2002), with their emphasis on access to science and technology, "scientific literacy," ubiquitous technologies and the ability to read and interpre

Researchers partner with fishermen to use auto-reporting bottom-positioned sensors for ocean research

In this study, we monitored the movement of PIT tagged juvenile coho salmon throughout the period of freshwater residence in an entire southern Oregon coastal basin to identify the prevalent sedentary and mobile strategies these fish may adopt and to exam
