Marine mammals and seabirds have been considered detrimental to salmon production for a long time, and extensive control programs are part of the history of salmon management. Unfortunately Oregon have not invested in enough research to accurately define the dimensions of the problem. Uncertainty regarding predators of salmonids by pinnipeds and birds is expressed in five science questions addressed in the report. IMST concludes that California sea lion, Pacific harbor seal, Caspian tern and cormorant populations along the Oregon coast have all increased in recent years, coinciding with historical lows in salmonid abundance.

Recent studies in this region interpret such couplets as the product of repeated large (magnitude 8 or 9) earthquakes on the Cascadia subduction zone. Stratigraphic investigations of the intertidal sediments at Netarts Bay, Oregon, using lithological, pollen and diatom analyses reveal different types of submergence associated with peat-mud couplets during the last 3500yr. Three peat-mud couplets record gradual sedimentation changes within an infilling body of water. Four other couplets record rapid submergence, burial of tidal marshes and their replacement by low marsh environments. In three of the events rapid submergence is small, 0-0.5m. The most recent marsh submergence event, around AD 1700, was 0.4+/-0.3m. Most of the buried peats contain microfossil evidence for a gradual increase in marine influence before the rapid change from organic to minerogenic sedimentation. Similar gradual changes are common in comparable pale environments on non-seismic coasts and are strong evidence against a simple interseismic strain accumulation-coseismic subsidence model. One hypothesis is that the gradual increase in marine influence before each submergence represents pre-seismic relative sea-level rise caused by a reduction in the rate of land uplift. The microfossil analyses provide evidence of three stages within an earthquake deformation cycle: coseismic subsidence; interseismic land uplift; and pre-seismic reduction in the rate of land uplift.
