- The Dabob Bay Natural Area was established in 1984 to protect rare examples of intact salt marsh and sand spit plant communities within one of Washington’s highest functioning coastal spit and tidal wetland systems. Initially created as a natural area preserve (NAP), the site was enlarged in 2009, and again in 2016, to include additional land designated as NAP, along with lands designated as natural resources conservation area (NRCA). This provides additional opportunities for low-impact public use.
- Linus Pauling Day-by-Day (scarc.library.oregonstate.edu)
In 1999, inspired by the remarkable success of the Human Genome Project, the OSU Libraries Special Collections launched an ambitious undertaking that seeks to closely document virtually every day of Linus and Ava Helen Pauling’s lives. The result is Linus Pauling Day-by-Day, a constantly expanding resource that provides in-depth description for a substantial portion of the half-million item Ava Helen and Linus Pauling Papers.
