Creator:: Paduan, S. D. and DeSzoeke, R. A.
Abstract:: Subsurface temperature data and surface meteorological data are analyzed from thermistor chain moorings deployed near 50°N, 140°W during the Storm Transfer and Response Experiment (STREX). The upper-ocean heat and potential energy (PE) contents to 90 m are examined for an 18-day period and their changes compared to the sources and...

Creator:: Menge, Bruce A., Daley, Bryon A., Wheeler, Patricia A., and Strub, P. Ted
Abstract:: On Oregon coastal rocky shores, filter‐feeders were relatively abundant and macrophytes were relatively scarce at Strawberry Hill, whereas opposite abundance patterns occurred at Boiler Bay. To determine whether nearshore oceanographic differences were associated with these patterns, we made shore‐based measurements of nutrient and Chl a concentrations. We used a three‐level...

Creator:: Sun, Jielun and Mahrt, L.
Abstract:: This study examines the bulk aerodynamic method for estimating surface fluxes of heat and moisture using the surface radiative temperature. The surface radiative temperature is often the only available surface temperature from field measurements. Models typically predict heat fluxes from the surface radiative temperature computed from the surface energy balance....

Creator:: Sun, Jielun, Esbensen, Steven K., and Mahrt, L.
Abstract:: The authors reconsider the problem of estimating the sensible heat transfer at the earth's surface from direct measurements of turbulent fluxes in the atmospheric boundary layer. For simplicity, only horizontally homogeneous conditions are considered for a thin atmospheric layer containing no liquid water, adjacent to the earth's ground surface. Applying...

Creator:: Zervakis, Vassilis and Levine, Murray D.
Abstract:: Wind-generated inertial currents can radiate from the mixed layer as horizontally and vertically propagating new-inertial internal gravity waves. To study the timescale of the decay of mixed layer energy and the magnitude of the energy transfer to the ocean below, the authors developed a numerical, linear model on a β...

Creator:: Dymond, Jack, Collier, Robert W., McManus, James, and Larson, Gary L.
Abstract:: Flux estimates show that upward mixing of the deep-water nitrate pool accounts for more than 85% of the total new nitrogen input to the euphotic zone of Crater Lake. Because measured primary productivity (360 mg C m-2 d-1) is 10–30 times higher than a level supported solely by the input...

Creator:: McManus, James, Collier, Robert W., Dymond, Jack, Wheat, C. Geoffrey, and Larson, Gary L.
Abstract:: Small temporal and spatial variations in the distribution of dissolved oxygen in Crater Lake, Oregon, are used to estimate the mean age of the lake’s deep water, the flux of labile organic carbon to the deep lake, and the influence of hydrothermal activity on the concentration of dissolved oxygen within...

Creator:: Federiuk, J. and Allen, J. S.
Abstract:: Two-dimensional, primitive equation model studies of wind-forced flow over a continental shelf Show that, under upwelling conditions, high levels of near-inertial wave energy are found in the interior over the shelf. The regions of elevated wave energy, with maximum wave amplitudes of around ±0.2 m s⁻¹, persist for up to...

Creator:: Matano, Ricardo P.
Abstract:: The oceanic circulation near the eastern margin of the African continent is dominated by the poleward flow of the Agulhas Current. The Agulhas Current separates from the African coast near the southern tip of the continent, makes an abrupt turn to the east (known as the Agulhas Retroflection), and flows...
