Notes | Popular overview of the state of Oregon's estuaries in the early 1980s. Uses Tillamook Bay as an example of "estuary evolution accelerated by man," documents filling in of the bay due to logging, forest fires. Paragraph descriptions of each of the major estuaries. "Salmon River (270 acres): This estuary is small, but perhaps the most beautiful in the state. It enters the sea south of Cascade Head. The area has been identified as a natural estuary by state land use planners. The river provides an excellent opportunity for study of undisturbed estuarine environments." |
