Two of the seven estuaries studied (Salmon River and Alsea) are drowning, while others are either keeping pace with sea level rise or actually growing. {\textquotedblleft}In particular, the Oregon margin provides an opportunity to compare a number of important drivers of centennial salt marsh morphologic change, including relative sea level rise, suspended sediment supply, basin area, bay morphology, and coseismic <br/>subsidence related to Cascadia Subduction Zone (CSZ) earthquakes, all of which will be discussed in this dissertation.{\textquotedblright} (from the Abstract)},

Results were not surprising:  industrial estuaries such as the Columbia River, Coos Bay and Yaquina Bay showed high contaminant exporsure (Yaquina Bay was high in PCBs in Chinook salmon), while natural estuaries like the Salmon and Elk River estuaries, had low exposures to harmful chemicals. Some of the conservation estuaries, including Alsea Bay, had relatively high exposures to contaminants. . Juvenile Chinook were more vulnerable than coho salmon.},
