	note = {In this engaging newsletter article, research on the interplay between sediment deposition and sea level rise in seven Oregon estuaries is described.  It turns out that six of the estuaries are depositing enough sediment to keep ahead of the rising ocean. Alsea Bay, however, is not keeping up. {\textquotedblleft}They do not yet know why the marsh in Alsea Bay lags behind the others.{\textquotedblright} (p.7) As part of this project, researchers are examining the important role salt marshes play in sequestering carbon.},

	journal = {Confluence},
	year = {2019},
	note = {In April and July, 2017, Britta Baechler, a Portland State University doctoral student, purchased Pacific oysters each from six different oyster growers on Oregon{\textquoteright}s Pacific coast.  Out of the 120 oysters, she found on average 11 suspected microplastics, mostly tiny fibers, per oyster. The data is preliminary, pending analysis of the microparticles, but the implications of a world awash in plastic, are disturbing.},
