Enhanced southward flow over the Oregon shelf in 2002: a conduit for subarctic water

Creator:: Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-
Abstract:: Moored current measurements from the Oregon shelf during 1998–2003 are used to estimate time series of anomalous alongshore currents and pseudo-displacements, after accounting for the mean and seasonal cycle. From early January through mid-June, 2002, currents at 10 m were anomalously strong toward the south by an average 12 cm/s,...

Structure of the coastal current field off Northern California during the coastal ocean dynamics experiment

Creator:: Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-
Abstract:: For 74 days during the spring and summer upwelling seasons of 1981 and 1982, in conjunction with the Coastal Ocean Dynamics Experiment, profiles of upper ocean currents were collected in the waters over the shelf and slope off northern California using a shipboard Doppler acoustic log. These measurements provide detailed...

On the spatial structure of coastal circulation off Newport, Oregon, during spring and summer 2001 in a region of varying shelf width

Creator:: Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-
Abstract:: A time series of hourly surface current maps in the shelf waters off Newport, Oregon, was made during April–September 2001 using five SeaSonde HF current mappers, during Coastal Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST). The surface currents responded rapidly to the changing winds, in repeated patterns that were strongly affected by...

Upper ocean thermohaline fields near 2°S, 156°E, during the Tropical Ocean-Global Atmosphere - Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment, November 1992 to February 1993

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945-, Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, Lukas, Roger, and Hacker, Peter
Abstract:: Zonal and meridional Seasoar sections centered at 1°50’S, 156°06’E were repeated >30 times in three 20-day periods between November 13, 1992, and February 15, 1993. Both sections were 130 km long, and sampling depth was 0–280 m, with a vertical resolution of ~2 dbar (2 x 104 Pa) and a...

Central California Coastal Circulation Study : CTD observations, cruise 8403, July 1984

Creator:: Chelton, Dudley B. and Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-
Abstract:: CTD observations were made over the continental shelf and upper continental slope from the coast to approximately 60 km off central California between latitudes 34°N and 37.5°N. The measurements were made by Raytheon Service Company as part of the Central California Coastal Circulation Study sponsored by the Minerals Management Service....

CTD and velocity surveys of seaward jets off Northern California, July 1981 and 1982

Creator:: Kosro, P. Michael, 1951- and Huyer, Adriana, 1945-
Abstract:: Two mesoscale surveys were conducted (in July 1981 and July 1982) near Point Arena, California, to determine the structure and circulation associated with tongues of cold surface water extending seaward from the coastal zone. Both surveys were designed at sea on the basis of available satellite IR data, and each...

Mesoscale surveys over the shelf and slope in the upwelling region near Point Arena, California

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945- and Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-
Abstract:: Repeated mesoscale surveys of a 40-km-wide, 100-km-long, coastal region near Point Arena, California, were conducted during the upwelling season (April-August) in 1981 and 1982. Each survey included conventional conductivity-temperature-depth casts at standard locations over the continental shelf and slope between 38°N and 39°10'N, and continuous operation of a Doppler acoustic...

Water mass subduction and the transport of phytoplankton in a coastal upwelling system

Creator:: Washburn, Libe, Kadko, David C., Jones, Burton H., Hayward, Thomas, Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, Stanton, Timothy P., Ramp, Steve, and Cowles, Timothy
Abstract:: Observations during the Coastal Transition Zone (CTZ) experiment in summer 1988 reveal the presence of deep phytoplankton layers in a coastal upwelling system. The layers occur throughout the CTZ study area, including a strong baroclinic jet which was present over the period of the experiment. On the basis of a...

Spatial and temporal characteristics of the mesoscale circulation of the California Current from eddy-resolving moored and shipboard measurements

Creator:: Chereskin, T. K., Morris, M. Y., Niiler, P. P., Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, Smith, Robert L. (Robert Lloyd), 1935-, Ramp, S. R., Collins, C. A., and Musgrave, D. L.
Abstract:: Moored observations of currents and temperatures made in the upper 600 m on eddy-resolving scales over a 2-year period are used to examine the spatial and temporal characteristics of the California Current mesoscale circulation. The observations were made at three principal longitudes: 124°W, 126°W, and 128°W in the vicinity of...

Tidal currents on the central Oregon shelf : models, data, and assimilation

Creator:: Erofeeva, Svetlana Y., Egbert, Gary D., and Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-
Abstract:: Measurements of tidal currents on the central Oregon shelf are available from several sources, including recent high frequency (HF) coastal radar and Acoustic Doppler Profiler (ADP) deployments, and historical current moorings. In this paper we use a generalized inverse (GI) approach to compare these data to, and then assimilate them...
