Scales of variability of bio-optical properties as observed from near-surface drifters

Creator:: Abbott, Mark R., Brink, Kenneth H., Booth, C. R., Blasco, Dolors, Swenson, Mark S., Davis, Curtiss O., and Codispoti, L. A.
Abstract:: A drifter equipped with bio-optical sensors and an automated water sampler was deployed in the California Current as part of the coastal transition zone program to study the biological, chemical, and physical dynamics of the meandering filaments. During deployments in 1987 and 1988, measurements were made of fluorescence, downwelling irradiance,...

A terrestrial organic matter depocenter on a high-energy margin adjacent to a low-sediment-yield river : the Umpqua River margin, Oregon

Creator:: Hastings, Roxanne H.
Abstract:: Small, mountainous river systems have been increasingly studied due to their importance as sources of fluvial sediment and organic matter to the coastal ocean. Thus far, studies of small, mountainous river systems have focused on rivers with very high sediment loads. The well-studied Eel River dispersal system in northern California...

The sediment response of a dissipative beach to variations in wave climate

Creator:: Haxel, Joseph H.
Abstract:: Using wave and wind data from nearby buoys and gauges, real time kinematic global positioning system (RTK-GPS) and light detection and ranging (lidar) topographic survey data, and a robust video record, we have quantified the Large Scale Coastal Behavior (LSCB) of a dissipative end member beach in the Pacific Northwest....

MicroSoar : a high speed microstructure profiling system

Creator:: May, Glenn H.
Abstract:: As ocean ecosystems continue to deteriorate in the face of human induced pressures, marine management professionals are increasingly being urged to predict the impacts of various activities on ocean ecosystems. Many ecosystem interactions are still not adequately understood, so managers often turn to scientists to provide data and analysis on...

Ocean Science in The SMILE Program : Combining Ocean Literacy and Concept Mapping as an Aid for Curriculum Development

Creator:: Dover, Laura H.
Abstract:: This study reports on the creation and testing of a model concept-mapping process that will aid the development and documentation of ocean science educational content of The Science and Math Investigative Learning Experiences (SMILE) Program, a pre-college science and math enrichment program based at Oregon State University. The project uses...

Carbon and energy exchange of semi-arid ecosystems with heterogeneous canopy structure

Creator:: Anthoni, Peter M.
Abstract:: Carbon and energy fluxes were measured with the eddy covariance technique above two semi-arid ecosystems, ponderosa pine and juniper/sagebrush, located in central Oregon. The two ecosystems have low LAI and a very open canopy structure. The energy closure was ~70-80% at both ecosystems, equivalent to an imbalance of 150-250 W...

Changing concentrations of CO, CH₄, C₅H₈, CH₃Br, CH₃I, and dimethyl sulfide during the Southern Ocean Iron Enrichment Experiments

Creator:: Wingenter, Oliver W., Haase, Karl B., Strutton, Peter, Friederich, Gernot, Meinardi, Simone, Blake, Donald R., and Rowland, F. Sherwood
Abstract:: Oceanic iron (Fe) fertilization experiments have advanced the understanding of how Fe regulates biological productivity and air–sea carbon dioxide (CO₂) exchange. However, little is known about the production and consumption of halocarbons and other gases as a result of Fe addition. Besides metabolizing inorganic carbon, marine microorganisms produce and consume...

The South Atlantic Ocean response to local and remote forcings

Creator:: Fetter Filho, Antonio F. H.
Abstract:: The local and remote sources of variability of the South Atlantic Ocean are investigated using a set of numerical experiments and satellite data. A global, eddy-permitting, numerical simulation is analyzed to investigate the dynamical links between the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and the Malvinas Current (MC). The model results indicate...
