Creator:: Oke, Peter R., Allen, John S., Miller, Robert N., Egbert, Gary D., and Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-
Abstract:: A data assimilation system (DAS) of the wind‐driven, mesoscale shelf circulation off the Oregon coast is developed. The DAS assimilates low‐pass filtered surface velocity measurements, obtained from land‐based high‐frequency coastal radar arrays, into a primitive equation coastal ocean model using a sequential optimal interpolation scheme. Inhomogeneous and anisotropic estimates of...

Abstract:: Measurements of tidal currents on the central Oregon shelf are available from several sources, including recent high frequency (HF) coastal radar and Acoustic Doppler Profiler (ADP) deployments, and historical current moorings. In this paper we use a generalized inverse (GI) approach to compare these data to, and then assimilate them...

Creator:: Barth, John A., Bogucki, Darek, Pierce, Stephen D., and Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-
Abstract:: Evidence for secondary circulation associated with a shelfbreak front is obtained from a high‐resolution, cross‐shelf section of hydrographic, optical and velocity fields. Convergence in the bottom boundary layer on the inshore side of the front and subsequent upwelling into the interior is evident by a mid‐water region of suspended bottom...

Creator:: O'Malley, Robert T., Barth, John A., Erofeev, Anatoli Y., Fleischbein, Jane, Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, and Pierce, Stephen D.
Abstract:: Two physical oceanography cruises on the R/V Endeavor were conducted by the co-PIs Jack Barth and Mike Kosro as part of the ONR-sponsored Coastal Mixing and Optics (CMO) Accelerated Research Initiative. The objective was to rapidly survey a region around 40.5N, 70.5W where a set of moorings and a stationary...

Creator:: Boyd, Timothy John, 1958-2013, Levine, Murray D., Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, Gard, Steve R., Waldorf, Walt, and Oregon State University. College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences
Abstract:: This report documents the oceanographic and meteorological measurements made by the Mooring Observations component of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) project during the upwelling experiment from May to August 2001. The focus of COAST is to study the cross-shelf transport processes in a wind-driven system by making...

Creator:: Fleischbein, Jane, Huyer, Adriana, 1945-, Smith, Robert L. (Robert Lloyd), 1935-, Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, Wheeler, Patricia A., Peterson, W. T., and Barth, Jack A.
Abstract:: PURPOSE: To determine physical, plankton and nutrient/chemical conditions over the continental margin for climate change studies in NE Pacific. In particular, to make CTD and CTD/rosette and net tow stations along 5 lines (off Newport, Heceta Head, Coos Bay, the Rogue River and Crescent City, OR, to deploy drifters at...

Creator:: Fleischbein, Jane H., Huyer, Adriana, 1945-, Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, Smith, Robert L. (Robert Lloyd), 1935-, Wetz, Jennifer Jarrell, and Wheeler, Patricia A.
Abstract:: As part of the U. S. GLOBEC NorthEast Pacific Program we made repeated seasonal hydrographic surveys in the northern California Current system (Figure 1) between July 1997 and September 2003. These surveys included early spring sampling along a pair of hydrographic sections, one north (at 44.6ºN) and one south (at...

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945-, Fleischbein, Jane, Keister, Julie Eileen, Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, Perlin, Natalie, Smith, Robert L. (Robert Lloyd), 1935-, and Wheeler, Patricia A.
Abstract:: A pair of hydrographic sections, one north and one south of Cape Blanco at 42.9N, was sampled in five summers (1998–2000 and 2002–2003). The NH line at 44.6N lies about 130 km south of the Columbia River, and spans a relatively wide shelf off Newport, Oregon. The CR line at...

Creator:: Pierce, Stephen D., Barth, John A., and Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-
Abstract:: We present velocity observations from a shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) on RN Endeavor during cruises E9608 (14 August to 1 September 1996) and E9704 (25 April to 15 May 1997). The cruises were conducted as part of the Office of Naval Research Coastal Mixing and Optics Accelerated Research...

Abstract:: This report summarizes the Seasoar and CTD observations from Wecoma cruises W9306A (5 June to 12 July, 1993) and W9308B (14 August to 22 September 1993) conducted as part of the Eastern Boundary Currents Accelerated Research Initiative, under funding by the Office of Naval Research. The cruises were designed to...
