Coastal landslides in northern Oregon

Creator:: North, William Benjamin
Abstract:: Landsliding is a significant contributor to continuous erosion of the 150-mile northern Oregon coast. Direct loss of land to the sea by landslides occurs along 47 percent of the coast. The remaining 53 percent has minor shifting of sand along depositional areas such as spits and dunes. These minor movements...

The linear and non-linear baroclinic instability in the eastern North Pacific

Creator:: Lee, Dong-kyu
Abstract:: Using a linear quasi-geostrophic model of large scale spiraling flow and vertical density gradient in the eastern North Pacific, we evaluate the complex dispersion relationships for quasi-geostrophic waves. Our calculations indicate that the geostrophic circulation of the eastern North Pacific can locally convert potential energy to mesoscale kinetic energy on...

Effects of ultraviolet-B radiation on marine phytoplankton

Creator:: Behrenfeld, Michael Joseph
Abstract:: Global increases in ultraviolet-B radiation (UVBR:290- 320 nm) resulting from decreases in stratospheric ozone concentration have the potential to alter marine primary production and affect global climate and marine trophic dynamics. Effects of UVBR on phytoplankton carbon fixation were determined from open ocean exposure studies conducted off the coast of...

Abrupt deglacial climate changes in the North Pacific and implications for climate tipping points

Creator:: Praetorius, Summer Kate
Abstract:: Paleoclimate archives have revealed abrupt climate events that are superimposed on more gradual climate changes throughout the last glacial and deglacial periods. The underlying causes of such rapid climate changes are still poorly understood, but the strong expression of these events in northern hemisphere records likely points to climatic mechanisms...

Equatorward jets and poleward undercurrents along the eastern boundary of the mid-latitude north Pacific

Creator:: Pierce, Stephen D.
Abstract:: We sharpen our view of an eastern boundary current region during the upwelling season through the analysis of several data sets. We focus on the mesoscale flow field off of northern California, observed during the Coastal Transition Zone (CTZ) experiment of 1988. First, we estimate tidal currents in the region...
