Capelin are a major component of cod diet in many ecosystems of the North Atlantic. In the Bering Sea, however, the percentage of capelin found in Pacific cod stomachs is negligible. We hypothesize that the landscape (or ‘seascape’) features of...

The benthic microalgae of sediments of the two tidal flats in Yaquina Bay, Oregon were investigated to determine the environmental factors limiting the abundance and the horizontal and vertical distribution of these organisms. The Southbeach tidal...

Pollination is a critical ecosystem function for sustaining biodiversity. However, pollinators and the services they provide are threatened by landscape-altering anthropogenic activities across the globe. Habitat loss and fragmentation,...

Organic matter dynamics in riparian ecosystems are largely driven by interactions among hydrology, soil, and vegetation. In two riparian meadows, northeast Oregon, I examined the hypothesis that vegetation and soil characteristics in three plant...

Microseris laciniata is a perennial, self-incompatible species classified in subgenus Scorzonella. It is morphologically the least specialized species in the genus, in contrast to the members of subgenus Microseris, which are morphologically...

Literature and museum records have been reviewed to provide a summary on the distribution, habitat associations and biology of six western North American Dicosmoecinae genera and the single eastern North American genus, Ironoquia. Results of this...

Distribution of nests and nesting success were determined for sharp-shinned hawks (Accipiter striatus) Cooper’s hawks (A. cooperii), and goshawks (A. gentilis) in Oregon during 1969 through 1974. 1n addition, two areas (11,74l hectares in Eastern...

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY An increase in the commercial and recreational harvest of clams in Tillamook Bay, Oregon, coupled with a general lack of knowledge about the bay's ecology, served as the impetus for a shellfish survey undertaken in the summer of...

Short-tailed albatrosses (Phoebastria albatrus, hereafter "STAL") migrate throughout the North Pacific, overlapping with multiple large scale fisheries. In the Bering Sea, documented bycatch of this species is a focal conservation concern, due to...

Crater Lake, originally barren of fish, was stocked on an irregular basis from 1888 through 1941 with several species of salmonids. Two species occur in the lake today--kokanee salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) and rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri). This...

I examined the relative roles of biotic and abiotic factors in structuring redband trout Oncorhynchus mykiss distributions in the South Fork John Day. I first examined the relationship between the biological traits of the fish assemblage and...

Despite the belief that fuels management, a form of prescribed fire that reduces accumulated fuels in commercially thinned forests, is necessary to restore forest 'health' in the Pacific Northwest, its effects on wildlife has received little...
