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...

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...

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,...

Abstract:: As part of the U. S. GLOBEC NorthEast Pacific Program we made repeated seasonal hydrographic surveys in the northern California Current system (Figure 1) between July 1997 and September 2003. These surveys included early spring sampling along a pair of hydrographic sections, one north (at 44.6ºN) and one south (at...

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...

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...

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....

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...

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...

Abstract:: Present methods used to retrieve altimeter data do not provide reliable estimates of sea surface height (SSH) in the nearshore region, resulting in a measurement gap of 25–50 km next to the coast. In the present work, gridded SSH fields produced by Archiving, Validation, and Interpretation of Satellite Oceanographic data...
