  • Comparison of sea level and currents off the Oregon coast using mean monthly data

    Creator:
    Marthaler, James Gordon
    Abstract:
    Sea level and current data collected near Newport, Oregon are compared to determine an empirical relationship from which the low frequency (f < .1 cpd) alongshore current field over the continental shelf is estimated from observed sea level measurements at the coast. Regression analysis of the near-surface (20-25 m) currents...

  • Near-inertial motions off the Oregon coast

    Creator:
    Anderson, Iain
    Abstract:
    Nearly three months of current meter records from five moorings off the Oregon coast taken between October 1977 and January 1978 were analyzed for near-inertial motions. The moorings were located from the midshelf out to the foot of the continental slope, spanning the continental margin. All but two of the...

  • The fall transition of Oregon shelf waters

    Creator:
    Reid, Brad
    Abstract:
    A long and gradual transition between the summer and winter oceanic regimes was observed off Oregon during the autumn of 1980. Hydrographic sections and a single current meter mooring between August and December show the ocean possessed characteristics during fall that have not been observed during other seasons: a slow...
