My experiences with the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (referred to as the Corps) has been an integral part of my formal education. My work with the Corps fulfills my internship requirement for my Masters Degree in Marine Resource Management. The work here has allowed me to use my academic...
CTD observations were made in the CODE region between Pt. Arena (39°N) and Pt. Reyes (38°N) during 28 February - 1 March 1982. The observations were made along three sections: the Arena Line, the North Line and the Code Central Line. An additional single CTD cast was made off Eureka...
The School of Oceanography, Oregon State University, conducted three cruises (May 19-June 2, June 7-22, and September 4-14) in 1982 to study the distribution, abundance, migration, growth and feeding habits of juvenile salmonids during their first summer in the ocean. This is the second year we have had a series...
CTD observations were made in the CODE region between Pt. Arena (39°N) and Pt. Reyes (38°N) during 20-24 April 1982. The observations were made along seven sections: Irish Gulch, Arena, North, Code-North, Code Central, Code-2 Central and Ross Lines, and along the fifty fathom contour. Maximum sampling depth was 1000...
Patterns of seasonal abundance of harbor seals at Netarts and Tillamook Bays, Oregon, were documented by recording numbers of seals hauling out on tidally exposed sand flats in both bays. Harbor seal abundance at Tillamook Bay peaked during pupping (May-June) and molting (August) periods, while peak abundance at Netarts Bay...
The benthic amphipod Corophium salmonis was sampled seasonally from two sites (Desdemona Sands and Grays Bay) in the Columbia River estuary. Populations of C. salmonis at both sites were found to have a two generation per year life cycle, a spring generation and a fall generation. The spring generation juveniles...
In this report we describe a preliminary version of a temperature/conductivity profiler that combines the calibration accuracy of a CTD with the vertical resolution of a microstructure instrument and the ease of deployment of an XBT. We also describe the results of a test of this version on a month-long...
