The team leveraged the development of a realistic, validated hydrodynamic model of the Coos estuary and extended previous research effort to analyze estuary conditions over large spatial scales. The study found a striking variation in sediment deposition and erosion across the estuary that was not a simple function of distance from estuary mouth. In addition, the model suggests that high estuary temperatures coincide with eelgrass die-off while high levels of sediment accretion result in less successful oyster restoration. Model results have allowed the team and its partners to make more precise recommendations for ongoing oyster and eelgrass restoration efforts and develop user-identified outputs including educational programs. To investigate sedimentation patterns, the team combined monitoring data from the NERRS System-wide Monitoring Program (SWMP) and Sentinel Sites with new sediment core data and new numerical model simulations. Long cores were collected to measure sediment accumulation over a longer time period (on the order of 100 years). Shorter cores were collected to obtain a yearly cycle of sediment deposition. A second focus of the project was to add water temperature to the existing hydrodynamic model, which was previously simulating only salinity and sediment (and sea level). Temperature is an important variable to team partners interested in ecosystems and biota. In addition, the model was run for a longer period, simulating three full years of the estuary hydrodynamics, 2014-2016, which will allow more insight into processes affecting native species and prove more useful to stakeholders. Coos Bay is home to Oregon's largest deep-draft port, as well as critical estuarine ecosystems including eelgrass and native oyster beds. However, water quality deterioration, climate change, and land use changes threaten the resiliency of the estuary and its marine species. In some parts of the estuary, recent restoration efforts of native oysters have failed and eelgrass density has significantly declined. To better understand the environmental factors impacting estuarine habitat, the project team convened with partners and estuary users. The team investigated the impacts of temperature and sedimentation changes on native oyster and eelgrass beds, both of which are critical habitats in the Coos estuary ecosystem. Their data allows for a more comprehensive analysis of sedimentation and water temperature changes over seasonal to decadal timescales. completed Office for Coastal Management 2234 South Hobson Avenue Charleston SC 29405-2413 https://www.coast.noaa.gov/ WWW:LINK-1.0-http--link Office for Coastal Management Website Website listed for Office for Coastal Management information custodian asNeeded EARTH SCIENCE > BIOLOGICAL CLASSIFICATION > ANIMALS/INVERTEBRATES > MOLLUSKS > BIVALVES > OYSTERS theme Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Science Keywords 17.0 eelgrass modeling oysters sediment theme Coos Bay, OR South Slough NERR, OR place DOC/NOAA/NOS/OCM > Office of Coastal Management, National Ocean Service, NOAA, U.S. Department of Commerce dataCentre Global Change Master Directory (GCMD) Data Center Keywords 2017-04-24 publication 8.5 Earth Science Data and Information System, Earth Science Projects Division, Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC), National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) https://forum.earthdata.nasa.gov/app.php/tag/GCMD%2BKeywords GCMD Keyword Forum Page Global Change Master Directory (GCMD). 2025.
