Researchers used photo-​identification, genetic and stable isotope analyses of tissue samples, and visual surveys of abundance and distribution, to provide details on the demography, population connectivity and ecology of E.australis.

Researchers developed an automatic weighing technique, using a digital scale beneath a natural nest, to remotely measure meal size in great albatrosses.

The Tillamook County Coastal Futures Project helps determine the relative impact of policy and management decisions on the adaptive capacity of Tillamook County, OR under a range of future climate scenarios.

This study provides the first evidence that grazing by appendicularians can cause non-uniform export of different shaped particles, thereby influencing particle fate.

The objective of this study is to improve understanding of coastal community resilience through examination of the graying of the fleet phenomenon in two fishing communities in Oregon.

This report estimates the number of gooseneck barnacles on jetties in southern Oregon and describes a device that was created to grow the barnacles in a laboratory on a small scale.

Study investigating how nutrients from agricultural runoff and oceanic upwelling impact the growth of light-blocking algae on eelgrass in bays along the Oregon coast.

Researchers are investigating if oysters grow better when grown with empty shells which dissolve and emit calcium and carbonate into the water and potentially help fight ocean acidification.
