Abstract: As part of the U. S. GLOBEC NorthEast PacificProgram we made repeated seasonal hydrographic surveys inthe northern California Current system between July1997 and September 2003. These surveys included samplingalong a pair of hydrographic sections, one north (at 44.6ºN)and one south (at 41.9ºN) of Cape Blanco (Figure 1) inSeptember of five years (1999-2003). The coastal upwellingassociated with the California Current experiences maximumupwelling during summer, and usually continues through muchof September; upwelling is usually stronger at 42ºN than at45ºN. One purpose of this report is to showdifferences and similarities between the coastal upwellingdomains north and south of Cape Blanco. We present graphicalsummaries of the physical oceanographic and biochemicalobservations along both sections, principally in the form ofzonal sections (0-160 km from shore, 0-150 m depth). We alsoshow offshore profiles of a few selected properties, and somecharacteristic diagrams (T-S, oxygen-S, etc.). Similar reportsshowing results for mid-summer and for spring have alreadybeen published (Fleischbein et al., 2005a, b).

These surveys included samplingalong a pair of hydrographic sections, one north (at 44.6ºN)and one south (at 41.9ºN) of Cape Blanco in fivesummers (1998-2000 and 2002-2003). The coastal upwellingregion associated with the California Current experiencesmaximum upwelling during summer, and upwelling is usuallystronger at 42ºN than at 45ºN. One purpose of thisreport is to show differences and similarities between thecoastal upwelling domains north and south of Cape Blanco.
