A lack of systematic studies of fish communities in estuaries has hampered our understanding of estuaries{\textquoteright} roles in the early life histories of many marine fish. In this article, the authors compare the community structure of juvenile fishes in the Yaquina Estuary for 2008-2009, 2012-2013 and 2016-2017.  Sampling took place around docks and eelgrass beds. {\textquotedblleft}Greater abundances and reduced change in communities over time at eelgrass sites suggests that maintaining these habitats is potentially critical for many estuary-rearing species and temporal changes in these communities highlights the importance of long-term monitoring.{\textquotedblright} (from the Abstract)},

	note = {"The goal of this study was to investigate natural and anthropogenic influences on the estuarine settlement process of rockfishes, with a focus on black rockfish, S. melanops. Trap surveys conducted in 6 Oregon estuaries indicate that young-of-the-year (YOY; age 0) rockfish utilize ..multiple Oregon estuaries from spring through late fall... Catches were higher in the more developed estuaries, suggesting that the continued development of Oregon estuaries may not adversely affect the rockfish settlement process."
