Feasibility of Artificial Clam Beds - Snow, C. Dale; Oregon. Fish Commission. Management and Research Division, (Fish Commission of Oregon, 1972)
This paper discusses the accidental creation of two clam beds by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers in Yaquina Bay in 1948 and in Coos Bay around 1950 through dumping of enough dredging spoil to create small islands in the river. The islands were subsequently colonized by clams. The suggestion is to test using dredging spoil to create more clam beds. "Fishery biologists are not in complete agreement on the desirability of such a project. From the viewpoint of shellfish biologists, this is a justifiable procedure. However, biologists working with finfish such as shad and striped bass are convinced that these areas are more valuable as feeding grounds for these species." (p.6) Includes maps showing the locations of the man-made clam beds.

Seasonal Succession of Zooplankton Populations in Two Dissimilar Marine Embayments on the Oregon Coast - Zimmerman, Steven T. (Oregon State University, 1972)
The "two dissimilar marine embayments" were Netarts and Yaquina Bays. " Zooplankton tows and hydrographic observations were made in to bays on the Oregon coast. Five stations were sampled weekly in Yaquina Bay from May, 1969 through September, 1970. Three stations were sampled weekly weekly in Netarts Bay from October, 1969 through January, 1961. Zooplankton collections were made with a Clarke-Bumpus sampler towed in a series of oblique steps. A #6 mesh (.239 mm aperture) net was used. A one year period from October, 1969 through September, 1970 was used to make a comparison of location and succession of zooplankton populations in the two bays..."

An Investigation of the Acoustic Signature of the Dungeness Crab (Cancer magister) - Goode, Wesley Lyle (Oregon State University, 1970)
Many animals living in estuaries or the sea are capable of producing underwater sound. Among these is the Dungeness crab, which makes sound through stridulation, or rubbing parts of its outer skeleton together. In this Master’s thesis, the author examined the acoustic signatures of stridulation in Dungeness and red rock crabs. The author found a technique to distinguish between the two crab species, but was not able to learn how they produced the sounds. Differences between sound production of male and female crabs are discussed. Masters thesis. Major professor was Leland C. Jensen.

Respiratory adaptations of two burrowing crustaceans, Callianassa californiensis and Upogebia pugettensis (Decapoda, Thalassinidea) - Thompson, Rogene Kasparek; Pritchard, Austin W. (Biological Bulletin, 1969)
Ghost shrimp and mud shrimp taken from Yaquina Bay were studied. Both species have low metabolic rates and “are remarkably tolerant to anoxic conditions.” (p.283) This may have implications for global warming and an expected higher frequency of anoxic events.

Laboratory Rearing and Hatching of Pacific Coast Clams and Oysters. Annual Report July 1, 1967 - June 30, 1968 - Phibbs, Duane; Oregon. Fish Commission (U.S. Department of the Interior. Fish and Wildlife Service, 1968)
"The Pacific Coast oyster industry is dependent upon imported oyster seed from Japan. Inconsistent quantity and quality of the imported seed is limiting growth and expansion of the oyster industry while the demand for marketable oysters is increasing. The development of oyster hatcheries on the Pacific Coast could provide the oyster industry with a continuous supply of seed needed for increased production. Controlled hatchery conditions would also provide better quality oyster seed production through selective breeding. The main objectives of the first year were to develop spawning and setting techniques for Pacific Coast molluscs." (from the Introduction) November, 1968.

Oyster Mortality Study: Annual Progress Report July 1, 1967-March 31, 1968 - Gibson, Gary; Oregon. Fish Commission; U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, (Fish Commission of Oregon, 1968)
"Objectives of Oregon's Oyster Mortality study for the year ending March 1969 were similar to those of the first 2 years of the program: (1) to monitor oyster mortality in Yaquina, Tillamook and Coos bays, (2) to collect hydrographic data in Yaquina Bay and (3) to furnish oysters to the University of Washington for comparative histological examination. Additional work was done on the seasonal growth of Pacific oysters, the survival and growth of native oysters from spat and low salinity tolerance of adult native oysters." (Introduction)
