Abstract
  • Wecoma cruise W8806A was conducted in June 1988 as part of the pilot study for the Coastal Transition Zone project. CTD observations were made over a standard grid in the coastal transition zone off northern California between 37° N and 39.5° N that was to be occupied repeatedly during June, July and August; this cruise was to complete the first survey. Altogether 60 stations were completed successfully. They were concentrated along six alongshore transects. Maximum sampling depth at all stations was 500 m. Temperature, salinity, light transmission and fluorescence were measured at all stations. This report presents vertical profile plots and tabulations of data at selected depths for each station; vertical sections of temperature, salinity and potential density anomaly (sigma-theta) for the alongshore sections; and maps of temperature, salinity, potential density anomaly and dynamic topography at selected depths.
