Scientists now recognize that these approaches overlooked the ecological processes that support salmon resilience, particularly the connections among marine, estuarine, and riverine habitats. A new paradigm emphasizes the full estuary‑to‑plume‑to‑shelf continuum as essential for maintaining the diversity of salmon life histories needed to withstand environmental change. The CORIE/SATURN coastal margin observatory system provides advanced monitoring and modeling capabilities that can help address key scientific questions emerging from this shift and guide more effective salmon recovery strategies. 000000373 540__ $$fCC BY 000000373 542__ $$fIn copyright - single owner 000000373 650__ $$aSeasons$$025815 000000373 650__ $$aComputer Simulation$$016989 000000373 650__ $$aEcosystem$$030218 000000373 650__ $$aSalmon$$025679 000000373 650__ $$aEstuaries$$040221 000000373 650__ $$aLife History Traits$$011777 000000373 651__ $$aUnited States--Columbia River$$044429 000000373 6531_ $$acoastal-margin observatories 000000373 6531_ $$aplume 000000373 6531_ $$amodeling 000000373 6531_ $$aseasonal and interannual variability 000000373 6531_ $$apacific salmon 000000373 6531_ $$ahabitat 000000373 691__ $$aSchool of Medicine$$041369 000000373 692__ $$aDepartment of Science and Engineering$$041447 000000373 7001_ $$aBurla, Michela$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354 000000373 7201_ $$aBaptista, António$$uOregon Health and Science University$$041354$$7Personal$$eAdvisor 000000373 8564_ $$9a2f8ff21-4c1c-4d90-a5a4-66074dc4b872$$s5414636$$uhttps://digitalcollections.ohsu.edu/record/373/files/374_etd.pdf$$ePublic$$25e1d511565d71eba5874fc9bbee73fc0$$31 000000373 905__ $$a/rest/prod/f1/88/1k/91/f1881k91k 000000373 909CO $$ooai:digitalcollections.ohsu.edu:373$$pstudent-work 000000373 956__ $$aGet Accessible Copy$$uhttps://ohsu.libwizard.com/f/requestaccessibledocument 000000373 980__ $$aTheses and Dissertations
