Macroscale to local scale variation in rocky intertidal community structure and dynamics in relation to coastal upwelling

Creator:: Freidenburg, Tess L.
Abstract:: Understanding how large-scale processes (>100 kms) influence ecological communities is currently a major focus in ecology. In marine systems, coastal upwelling, a large-scale oceanographic process in which surface water pushed offshore by winds is replaced by cold, nutrient-rich water from depth, appears to cause variation in rocky intertidal communities. Along...

Interannual and interdecadal variability in the timing and strength of the spring transitions along the United States west coast

Creator:: Bilbao, Pablo A.
Abstract:: Past studies of the Oregon and Washington coast have shown a rapid change in the coastal ocean conditions with the onset of upwelling in spring. This process, called the spring transition marks the change from winter to summer conditions along the west coast of Unites States. To examine the interannual...

Studies on the spatial variability of phytoplankton physiology and biomass in the Oregon upwelling system

Creator:: Sanders, Rachel B.
Abstract:: The Oregon upwelling system is a region of high biomass and primary productivity as well as strong mesoscale variability. In order to examine the interaction of physical forcing and ecosystem dynamics, four 3-week sampling cruises were conducted in the Oregon upwelling system as part of the Northeast Pacific Global Ocean...

Diatom taphocoenoses in the coastal upwelling areas off western South America

Creator:: Schuette, Gretchen and Schrader, Hans
Abstract:: Diatom floral analysis of 116 sediment surface samples obtained off Peru reveals a boundary in the sediments between coastal upwelling influenced sediments and sediments outside the highly productive realm. Sinuous patterns of relative abundance for meroplanktic species (Actinocyclus octonarius, Actinoptychus senarius, and Cyclotella striata/stilorum) may preserve the meander-like patterns of...

Coastal upwelling experiment hydrographic data report : June-August 1973

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945- and Gilbert, William E.
Abstract:: Hydrographic observations were made over the continental shelf and slope off Oregon during the 1973 Coastal Upwelling Experiment (CUE-II) from three ships: R/V OCEANOGRAPHER, R/V THOMAS G. THOMPSON, and R/V YAQUINA. This report contains the observations made on four YAQUINA cruises between June and August 1973 (Table I). Observations were...

Ecological subsidies to rocky shore communities : setting the stage for community dynamics in the Northeast Pacific

Creator:: Krenz, Christopher
Abstract:: This dissertation focuses on the importance of pelagic subsidies in the Northeast Pacific to rocky shore community regulation. My results document the patterns of pelagic subsidy supply, determine if those subsidies are correlated with community structure, and examine if community regulation differs between areas of high- and low-subsidies. Understanding how...

Organization of persistent upwelling structures : hydrographic observations, 5 April-10 May 1983. Vol. 2

Creator:: Chelton, Dudley B., Paluszkiewicz, Theresa, Chandler, William, and Atkinson, Larry P.
Abstract:: The area near Point Arguello has long been recognized as a location of strong upwelling. A tongue of biologically active waters was observed in the earliest studies of this region (Sverdrup and Allen, 1939). More recently, satellite estimates of chlorophyll by the Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS) on Nimbus-7 have...
