Creator:: Boyd, Timothy John, 1958-2013, Levine, Murray D., Kosro, P. Michael, and Gard, Steve R.
Abstract:: This report documents oceanographic and meteorological measurements made from instruments deployed on four moorings over the continental shelf west of Oregon, from spring through summer, 1999. These moorings were a component of an observational and numerical modeling program to study the response of the coastal ocean to wind forcing. The...

Abstract:: Near the bottom, the velocity profile in the bottom boundary layer over the continental shelf exhibits a characteristic law-of-the-wall that is consistent with local estimates of friction velocity from near-bottom turbulence measurements. Farther from the bottom, the velocity profile exhibits a deviation from the law-of-the-wall. Here the velocity gradient continues...

Abstract:: Horizontal current measurements from an array of moored acoustic Doppler profilers are assimilated sequentially into a model of coastal wind-driven circulation off Oregon during the upwelling season of May–August 2001. Model results are compared against independent moored and ship survey data to document a positive effect of velocity data assimilation...

Abstract:: From mid-May to August 2011, extreme runoff in the Columbia River ranged from 14,000 to over 17,000 m³/s, more than two standard deviations above the mean for this period. The extreme runoff was the direct result of both melting of anomalously high snowpack and rainfall associated with the 2010–2011 La Niña....

Abstract:: This report documents the oceanographic and meteorological measurements made by the Mooring Observations component of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) project during the upwelling experiment from May to August 2001. The focus of COAST is to study the cross-shelf transport processes in a wind-driven system by making...

Abstract:: An optimal interpolation (OI) sequential algorithm is implemented for a three-dimensional primitive equation model to assimilate current measurements from acoustic Doppler profilers moored on the Oregon shelf as a part of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) upwelling experiment (May–August 2001). A stationary estimate of the forecast error...

Abstract:: Meteorological conditions during an intensive oceanographic observational program in May through August 2001 along the central Oregon coast are described and related to larger-scale and longer-term conditions. Southward wind stresses of 0.05-0.1 N m⁻² occurred roughly 75% of the time, with a sustained period of dominantly southward stress from mid-June...
