Seasonal Cross-Shelf Flow Structure, Upwelling Relaxation, and the Alongshelf Pressure Gradient in the Northern California Current System

Creator:

McCabe, Ryan M., Hickey, Barbara M., Dever, Edward P., and MacCready, Parker

Abstract:

Moored observations are used to investigate the seasonal change in vertical structure of the cross-shelf circulation at a midshelf location in the northern California Current System. A streamwise–normal coordinate system is employed to eliminate meander- and eddy-induced biases in the cross-shelf flow that are unaccounted for with an alternative, commonly...

Evaluation of a coastal ocean circulation model for the Columbia River plume in summer 2004

Creator:

Liu, Yonggang, MacCready, Parker, Hickey, Barbara M., Dever, Edward P., Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, and Banas, Neil S.

Abstract:

Realistic hindcast of the Columbia River estuarine-plume-shelf circulation in summer 2004 using the Regional Ocean Modeling System nested within the Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM) is quantitatively evaluated with an extensive set of observations. The model has about equal skill at tidal and subtidal properties. Tidal circulation and water properties...
