PURPOSE: To determine physical, plankton and nutrient/chemical conditions over the continental
margin for climate change studies in NE Pacific. In particular, to make CTD and CTD/rosette and net
tow stations along the Newport Hydro line, and to make continuous observations of currents using
ADCP and of surface-layer temperature, salinity and...
We present velocity observations from a shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) on RIV Revelle during cruises R9711 (30 November 1997 to 3 January 1998) and R9802 (13 February 1998 to 19 March 1998). The cruises were conducted as part of the Southern Ocean JGOFS (Joint Global Ocean Flux) Antarctic...
We present velocity observations from a shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) on
R/V Wecoma during cruise W0108a (6-25 August 2001). The cruise was a component (Survey
II) of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) experiment. The ADCP was an
RD Instruments hull-mounted 153-kHz narrowband unit. Data were...
As part of the GLOBEC NEP collaborative research project on the California Current (CC),
this was the second of two cruises in 2002 to study the physical and biological oceanographic
distributions and processes that influence juvenile salmonid habitat along the Oregon and northern
California coast. The 2002 cruises followed similar...
As part of the Coastal Ocean Processes (CoOP) project Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf
Transport (COAST), this was the first of two cruises in 2001 to study cross-shelf transport
processes in a wind-driven coastal ocean. The project includes field experiments off the Oregon
coast and coordinated ocean circulation/ecosystem and atmospheric...
We present velocity observations from a shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) on
R/V Wecoma during cruise W0301b (19 January - 3 February 2003). The cruise was a component
(Survey III) of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) experiment. The
ADCP was an RD Instruments hull-mounted 153-kHz narrowband...
During Spring and Summer 1999, as part of the Oregon State University National Oceanographic Partnership Program (OSU-NOPP) field program, 20 successful hydrographic surveys were undertaken on the Oregon mid- to inner shelf, all near Yaquina Bay. These consisted of 17 cross-shelf sections along the Newport Hydrographic line ( extending approximately...
This report summarizes the Seasoar and CTD observations from Wecoma
cruises W9306A (5 June to 12 July, 1993) and W9308B (14 August to 22 September
1993) conducted as part of the Eastern Boundary Currents Accelerated Research
Initiative, under funding by the Office of Naval Research. The cruises were
designed to...
We present velocity observations from a shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) on RN Endeavor during cruises E9608 (14 August to 1 September 1996) and E9704 (25 April to 15 May 1997). The cruises were conducted as part of the Office of Naval Research Coastal Mixing and Optics Accelerated Research...
