Notes"This investigation examined the community structure of two intertidal sedimentary environments on the Oregon coast in terms of species composition and vertical distribution. A coring device was used to obtain samples from two levels above MLLW in each beach on four occasions. Of the 54 taxa found, 46.2% were crustaceans, 35.2% polychaetes, 11.1% molluscs and 7.6% were of other phyla." (from the Abstract). Major professor was Jefferson J. Gonor.
