	volume = {M.S.},
	year = {2020},
	note = {In order to restore salt marshes, it is necessary to know more about their environments.  One aspect of salt marsh vegetation is their fungal symbiotes. This Master{\textquoteright}s thesis reports on a study of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and their relationships to three common marsh plants:  Baltic rush, tufted hairgrass, and the invasive reed canary grass. Plants were removed from a high marsh in the Salmon River Estuary, along with soil core samples. Plants were grown in a greenhouse, inoculated with fungi from the marsh, and placed in several competition scenarios. {\textquotedblleft}This experiment indicates that fungal inoculation may offer stress amelioration through photosynthetic pathway II to Juncus balticus and may have the opposite effect of non-native Phalaris arundinacea{\textquotedblright} (from the Abstract). The author goes on to suggest that in cases like this, when the fungi give more benefits to native species than to introduced species, commercial inoculants may be useful.  This is a beginning for learning which fungi-marsh plant combinations are valuable for salt marsh restoration.  PSU Dissertations and Theses Paper 5579. },

	note = {Oregon populations of wild coho salmon were in decline until they were listed by the Federal Government as threatened populations in 1998.  Subsequent efforts to restore coho included reducing hatchery production, restoring habitats and cutting allowable harvests. At the same time, ocean conditions improved, favoring adult salmon survival. In this paper, the authors{\textquoteright} objective {\textquotedblleft}was to assess change in the freshwater production of juvenile production of juveniles (smolts) through time in order to determine if recent increases in adult abundance could be related to management affecting the freshwater juvenile production{\textquotedblright} (from the Abstract).   Interestingly, the authors did not find any improvement in the survival of juvenile fish per spawning salmon. Instead, they attribute the rebound in coho population to improved ocean conditions.  Various aspects of this complex fishery management issue are discussed.},

	year = {2000},
	note = {This paper describes a pilot project to develop a recruitment index for rockfish. Rockfish bear live young in the winter. "The larvae live in the plankton for three to five months before settling to the benthos, usually near some sort of structure."  Juvenile rockfish live in estuaries before migrating to the ocean. For this study, beach seines were conducted in the summer of 2000.  The Chinook salmon was the most abundant fish in the Salmon River estuary. No rockfish were found in the Salmon River. "There is limited rockfish habitat in the estuary, most of which empties at low tide leaving only riverine freshwater flow." Fifteen different fish species were collected in the Salmon River estuary.},

Latitude was a factor in determining plant communities, but the absence of fire was the most important factor in plant succession.  Includes color photographs of studied sites, and interesting paired photographs illustrating plant succession by showing the sites decades earlier and contrasting the same view with conditions in the early 1980s.
