OREGON MARBLED MURRELET PROJECT
The OSU College of Forestry initiated a long term, comprehensive study in 2015 to assess and understand murrelet habitat needs in relation to a number of forest management issues. This cutting edge research applies new methods and technology to improve our understanding of murrelet nesting habitat requirements and factors that affect breeding success.
