Investigation of twelve earthquakes off the Oregon and northern California coasts

Creator:

Rinehart, Verill Joanne

Abstract:

Twelve earthquakes off the Oregon and Northern California coasts were used in this research to study whether faulting associated with these quakes was of the San Andreas type as observed in California. The first motions of the incident P and S waves recorded at various seismic stations in the Pacific...

Solar radiation measured at the sea surface off Oregon during summer 1963

Creator:

Minard, David Raymond

Abstract:

Solar radiation intensities, incident to the sea surface off the Oregon coast, are measured and compared. Simplification of some physical and biological problems can be anticipated if the average radiation received over a broad segment of ocean can be accurately indicated by the amount recorded at the land station. The...

Structure and kinematics of the permanent oceanic front off the Oregon coast

Creator:

Collins, Curtis Allan

Abstract:

Using the hydrographic data collected by the ACONA from June 1961 to May 1963, the Oregon coastal front has been examined. Representative sigma-t surfaces were chosen to delineate the front, and changes in position of these surfaces with time were used to obtain zonal flow rates for the frontal and...

Coastal landslides in northern Oregon

Creator:

North, William Benjamin

Abstract:

Landsliding is a significant contributor to continuous erosion of the 150-mile northern Oregon coast. Direct loss of land to the sea by landslides occurs along 47 percent of the coast. The remaining 53 percent has minor shifting of sand along depositional areas such as spits and dunes. These minor movements...

Primary seismic wave (P) at 250-350 km compared to measured wave to 0.3 km from GNOME nuclear explosion

Creator:

Laun, Philip Royal

Abstract:

The first cycle of seismic waves recorded at distances of 45, 300 and 355 km. from the GNOME nuclear explosion was used to determine whether the near source wave characteristics at 0.3 km. could be determined from distance measurements. Both head wave and body wave propagation were considered. First the...

Marine geophysical studies offshore: Newport, Oregon

Creator:

Whitcomb, James Hall

Abstract:

A marine geophysical study using shallow seismic reflection, gravity and magnetic methods of investigation was done for an offshore area near Newport, Oregon. The area is bounded by the latitudes 44°1O' to 44°50' N. and longitudes 124°07' to 124°30' W. The interpretation of observational data showed that the geology of...

The bone structure of some marine vertebrates

Creator:

Tont, Sargun Ali

Abstract:

This paper deals with the bone structure of albacore, fin whale and deep-sea rat-tail. The major components of bone - ash, organic, fat and water content are expressed on a volumetric basis. It has been found that both rat-tail and whale bone tissue are highly mineralized and the mineralization occurs...

Primary seismic waves near explosions

Creator:

Trembly, Lynn Dale

Abstract:

This thesis is concerned with near source primary seismic waves generated by, the Gnome, Hardhat, Shoal and Haymaker underground nuclear explosions. Records of ground motion between 0.3 and 20.0 kilometers from the sources were analyzed in terms of displacement amplitude and energy variations with distance. The observed data have been...

Seasonal and geographical distribution of pelagic copepods in Oregon coastal waters

Creator:

Cross, Ford A.

Abstract:

The copepod population in Oregon coastal waters was examined from 116 oblique plankton tows taken during 1962. Quantitative Clarke- Bumpus samplers were used and stations ranged from 5-105 miles from shore along four hydrographic lines. Forty-six species of copepods were identified. The total adult population varied according to distance from...
