On February 10th, 2022 Dr Jose R Marin Jarrin from the Humbolt State University Department of Fisheries Biology will share his experience and knowledge of nearshore sandy ecosystems as part of the Lower Nehalem Watershed Council’s speaker series. In 2013 he published a paper on the use of sandy beach environments as nurseries for juvenile Chinook salmon. Since then his research has spanned a wide variety of marine biology topics including a chapter in the 2022 book “Sandy Beaches as Endangered Ecosystems” titled “The Biology and Ecology of Sandy Beach Surf Zones.” It’s really exciting to have such an expert in his field come present to us!
His research on Chinook use of sandy beach environments explored what role that environment plays in their life history. His research sought to describe that use through field collections, otolith sampling, and comparison of growth between estuarine and sandy beach Chinook juveniles. This is sure to be a great story about both the process of science and an opportunity to learn more about what’s happening off shores very much like those here by the mouth of the Nehalem.
Dr Jose Marin Jarrin earned his PhD in Fisheries Science at Oregon State University, with a Masters in Marine Biology from University of Oregon, and his Bachelors from the University of Guayaquil in Ecuador. Since 2008 he’s published at least 32 times on marine biology topics!
The talk will be on February 10th at 7 pm, hosted on Zoom, and is free to the public. The zoom link is us02web.zoom.us/j/84340270734 or on the Faceboook event at www.facebook.com/lnwc1.

Chuck Winkelman is teaching another stained-glass workshop this winter. The Hoffman Center sponsors the workshop in Winkelman’s garage in Manzanita, where students can use his extensive equipment. It is limited to eight students. The class begins with an introduction to tools, the selection of designs and layout, cutting boards, and glass cutting. Next, Chuck provides a few simple window templates, but students can bring their designs.
All materials are provided for a small window (12” x 12”), but options for a larger window are available for an additional materials fee.

The Cannon Beach Library will host suspense writer and former American Embassy diplomat Stephen Holgate at 2 p.m. Saturday, Feb. 5 on a Facebook Live presentation.
Viewers can join from the library’s Facebook page or from the library’s website, cannonbeachlibrary.org.
Holgate will discuss his latest book, “To Live and Die in the Floating World,” a thriller set on a tourist boat on the canals of Burgundy. The boat is similar to the one Holgate once worked on as a crew member. How his own experience compares with that of his fictional characters may be answered in his discussion.
His previous suspense/thrillers, “Tangier,” “Madagascar” and “Sri Lanka,” are based on the characters, conversations and experiences he encountered in those locations while he worked in the diplomatic service.
He served as a diplomat for American embassies in France, Madagascar, Morocco, Mexico and Sri Lanka.
In addition to his foreign service posts, Holgate spent several years as a congressional staffer; headed a committee staff of the Oregon State Senate; managed two electoral campaigns; and acted with the national tour of an improvisational theater group.
“Tangier,” his first novel, gained critical acclaim, and made the Bookreaders 10-best list in the indie mystery/suspense category.
His second novel, “Madagascar,” received a starred review from Publishers Weekly, a nomination from Forward Reviews as best book of the year in the fiction category, and another listing from Bookreaders as among the 10 best mystery/suspense novels of the year.
In addition to his novels, Holgate has published several short stories, produced a one-man play and written freelance articles.
He lives with his wife, Felicia, in Portland.
