Notes | This is a good look at the physical condition of Siletz Bay in the mid-1970s. One interesting aspect involved tidal predictions: the author found that changes in the bay led to predicted times of high and low tide to be in error and suggested that either increased sedimentation or the diking of Millport Slough might be the cause.
