Satellite technology represents the only technique for measuring sea surface
temperatures (SSTs) on a global scale. SSTs are important as boundary conditions for
climate and atmospheric boundary layer models which atte ...
The influence of mesoscale ocean eddies on near-surface ocean temperature, surface stress and phytoplankton communities is investigated by collocating numerous satellite measurements along with vertical profiles of ocean ...
A satellite-derived Climatology of Global Ocean Winds (COGOW) on a 0.5° latitude
by 0.5° latitude grid is presented based on 5-years (August 1999 July 2004) of
measurements from the SeaWinds scatterometer that was laun ...
Spectral analysis was used to investigate semidaily mean sea
levels and atmospheric pressures at San Francisco, California,
Coos Bay, Oregon, and Tofino, British Columbia, in the frequency
band 0 to 0.5 cpd. Cross spe ...
The relationship between sea level and wind stress in a region of
known upwelling was studied for an eleven-month period during
1933-34.
Sea level data, obtained from observations taken by the Coast and
Geodetic Surv ...
The mesoscale sea-surface circulation pattern within 400 km off Chile and between 18°S and 40°S latitude is described using chlorophyll and temperature images from the Coastal Zone Color Scanner NIMBUS-7 satellite. The d ...
Carbon dioxide (CO₂) fluxes between the ocean and atmosphere on continental margins are difficult to diagnose because these regions experience large variability over spatial and temporal scales spanning meters to basins ...
The shallow, wave-swept sea floor off the central Oregon coast
is used by 0-age flatfishes as a nursery ground. This dissertation
is based on a series of projects designed to: 1) identify the dominant
meiobenthic nema ...
Oregon English sole catch data from 0 to 80 fathoms between Coos
Bay and Cape Lookout were examined for the years 1973, 1975, and 1976.
English sole is a major target species of this inshore trawl fishery.
Comparison ...
Phosphate, silicate and nitrate concentrations in the sea off
the coast of Oregon were determined to study their seasonal distribution
patterns. The water samples were collected monthly along the
east-west hydrographi ...
A year-long field study was undertaken to investigate the influence of a number of physical and biological factors, specifically temperature, organic carbon content, and shrimp population dynamics on sediment reworking r ...
