Abstract:
Several studies of sedimentation and sediment composition have been conducted in Tillamook Bay (e.g., Avolio 1973, Glenn 1978, Komar 1997). The latter report provides an overview of what is known about sedimentation of the bay, which is an important environmental concern because of its influence on habitat quality and navigation. Bathymetric surveys were conducted in 1867, 1957, and 1994/1995. E&S performed a comparative analysis for TBNEP of the available historical bathymetric data sets for the bay. The objective of this analysis was to quantify, to the extent possible, the changes in bathymetry that occurred between the times of the available surveys. It is considered likely that the bay has received excessive contributions of 1. The breach of Bayocean Spit between 1952 and 1956 2. Deforestation in the watershed 3. The Tillamook Burns of 1933, 1939, 1945, and 1951 4. Land use practices in the watershed, including road construction, agriculture, and urbanization. The greatest impacts of these sources of sedimentation probably occurred prior to the 1957 bathymetric survey.
Purpose:
The major objective of this project was to attempt to quantify changes in the depth of Tillamook Bay during the intervening periods between the bathymetric sampling dates.
Supplemental_Information:
Much of this documentation was extracted from "BATHYMETRIC ANALYSIS OF TILLAMOOK BAY Comparison Among Bathymetric Databases Collected in 1867, 1957 and 1995" by Joseph A. Bernert and Timothy J. Sullivan see Tillbath.doc for more detail.

Attribute_Accuracy_Report:
Measurement errors as documented in metadata for source coverages; in addition, there may exist a datum shift among the three bathymetric coverages. In other words, for each data set, the measured depths had to be standardized to some benchmark elevation. For example, a depth can be recorded at -3 ft., but we need to know the answer to the question, ?Three feet below what?? We do not have information on how the historical data sets were referenced, but we suspect that the reference points were probably not the same. Komar (1992) suggested that data on global sea level and local elevation changes indicated that, between 1931 and 1988, sea level has risen relative to the Tillamook area at a rate of 1 to 2 mm/yr. Assuming this rate has held since the first bathymetric survey, the rise in sea level in Tillamook Bay between 1867 and 1995 would be about 13 to 26 cm (0.4 to 0.8 ft). The official vertical datum shift of mean sea level was 4 ft between 1867 and 1957 and 3 ft between 1957 and 1995. Both of these vertical shifts in sea level were shifted upwards (Bruce Follansby, TBNEP, pers. comm.). The inferred changes from 1957 to 1995- many more areas were inferred to have become deeper than to have become shallower. No datum shift is assumed because we do not know what shift to apply to standardize these data sets.
