During the WELOC-77 cruise, May 21 - June 18, 1977, hydrographic and light beam transmission measurements were simultaneously made in situ off the coast of Peru on R/V WECOMA. Temperature, salinity and light
transmission data are listed for standard depths, and their vertical profiles are also presented.
The Optical Dynamics Experiment (ODEX) cruise of Oct and Nov 1982 occupied 1984 stations along a transect from the California coast at 35°N to a study area covering the subtropical front near 32°N, 142°W. This report presents data collected with spectral—radiometer instrument package and particle size distributions of discrete water...
Particle size distributions (8-105-μm diameter), chlorophyll a, and particulate carbon
were measured off the Oregon coast during July 1973. The particle counts were transformed
to volume concentration and then subjected to characteristic vector analysis.
Ninety-two percent of the variance was accounted for by linear combinations of the first
two characteristic...
During the W7711A cruise, from November 5 through November
13, 1977, a series of measurements were made on the hydrography, suspended particulate matter (spm), nutrients, first and second trophic level biomasses, primary productivity and zooplankton species for the purpose of gaining concurrent winter time information on these parameters. The cruise...
During May and September of 1978, cruises were made in Monterey Bay
to study the relationship of ocean color spectra measured by aircraft and
in situ optical, hydrographic, and chemical parameters. These cruises were
carried out by the Oregon State University optical oceanography group and
by the Naval Postgraduate School...
