Over the continental shelf at 15°S off Peru, sigma-t is a well-defined
function of temperature (Figure 1) and hence temperature alone may be used
to monitor the changes in stratification, to test the thermal wind equation,
and to monitor the hydrographic response to wind events. In this report we
present...
Oregon State University installed and recovered moorings along the coast of Peru during the period late March 1976 through mid-May 1977. A mid-shelf mooring near 15°S (MILA)
was maintained for the full duration of the experiment, through five successive installations. This site was complemented by six other moorings in the...
In this report we will present vertical sections of temperature, salinity and sigma-t from both CTD and bottle casts made on legs 1-5 of the R/V Eastward during JASON, and from CTD casts made on legs 1, 2 and 4 of the R/V Melville and legs .2 and 4 of...
Hydrographic observations were made over the continental shelf and slope off Oregon during the 1973 Coastal Upwelling Experiment (CUE-II) from three ships: R/V OCEANOGRAPHER, R/V THOMAS G. THOMPSON, and R/V YAQUINA. This report contains the observations made on four YAQUINA cruises between June and August 1973 (Table I). Observations were...
CTD observations of temperature and salinity were made off the coast of Peru between 5°S and 16°S from the R/V MELVILLE, 4 March - 22 May 1977, and the R/V ISELIN, 5 April - 19 May 1977. These observations were made as part of MAM 77, the final phase of...
CTD observations of temperature and salinity were made
off the coast of Peru between 12°S and 16°S from the
R/V EASTWARD, between 23 July and 16 August 1976. The
observations were made during Legs 0, 1, and 2 of JASON,
which was the middle phase of the JOINT-II project conducted...
