Vertical distributions of temperature, salinity and sigma-T : from observations from R/V Yaquina during Coastal Upwelling Experiment, 1972

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945-
Abstract:: This report is an intermediate step in analyzing part of the hydrographic data from the 1972 Coastal Upwelling Experiment (CUE) off the coast of Oregon. It presents the author's interpretation of the vertical distribution of temperature, salinity and sigma-t along lines occupied on hydrographic cruises by R/V Yaquina during CUE....

Seasonal variation in temperature, salinity, and density over the continental shelf off Oregon

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945-
Abstract:: Seasonal variations in the hydrography of the waters over the continental shelf off Oregon were observed in a set of hydrographic data collected along 44º39′N at intervals of a few weeks to a few months from 1961 through 1970. The temperature is determined only partly by the local heating and...

A study of the relationship between local winds and currents over the continental shelf off Oregon

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945-
Abstract:: This thesis demonstrates that at low frequencies (periods longer than 2.5 days) local currents off the coast of Oregon are closely related to the wind. Wind and current observations made during August and September 1969 are described and compared to demonstrate that a relationship exists; the physics of the interaction...

Observations of the coastal upwelling region off Oregon during 1972

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945-
Abstract:: Observations of wind, currents, sea level and hydrography obtained during the 1972 Coastal Upwelling Experiment (CUE-I) are described. Only phenomena with periods longer than a day are considered. One section describes the changes observed during a period of variable winds in early July 1972. Another describes a ribbon of relatively...

Alongshore coherence at low frequencies in currents observed over the continental shelf off Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945-, Hickey, Barbra M., Smith, J. Dungan, Smith, Robert L. (Robert Lloyd), 1935-, and Pilsbury, R. Dale
Abstract:: Current observations over the continental shelf at locations off central Oregon and southern Washington had the period from July 18 to September 18, 1972, in common. Low-frequency fluctuations (less than one cycle per day) in the currents are compared by means of visual display, linear regression, and spectral analysis. The...

Variations in the alongshore correlation of sea level along the West Coast of North America

Creator:: Osmer, Stephen R. and Huyer, Adriana, 1945-
Abstract:: We investigated sea level fluctuations at seven locations from San Francisco to Torino, British Columbia, during a 2-year period beginning in August 1973. Using overlapping 2-month periods, we found the alongshore correlation to vary with time and with location along the coast. In winter the fluctuatioans are correlated along the...

Seasonal variation of the alongshore velocity field over the continental shelf off Oregon

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945-, Pillsbury, R. Dale, and Smith, Robert L. (Robert Lloyd), 1935-
Abstract:: The seasonal variation in the alongshore velocity field is inferred from direct current observations made over the Oregon continental shelf at various locations and irregular intervals since 1965. Monthly mean currents are computed and compared with earlier studies to give a description of the seasonal variation in the alongshore currents....

Temperature sections along the C-line over the shelf off Cabo Nazca, Peru from moored current meters : 18 March-10 May 1977 and CTD observations, 5 March-15 May 1977

Creator:: Brink, Kenneth H., Gilbert, William E., and Huyer, Adriana, 1945-
Abstract:: Over the continental shelf at 15°S off Peru, sigma-t is a well-defined function of temperature (Figure 1) and hence temperature alone may be used to monitor the changes in stratification, to test the thermal wind equation, and to monitor the hydrographic response to wind events. In this report we present...

CTD observations off the coast of Peru, R/V Melville, 4 March-22 May 1977, and R/V COLUMBUS ISELIN, 5 April-19 May 1977

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945-, Gilbert, William E., Schramm, Richard, and Barstow, Dennis
Abstract:: CTD observations of temperature and salinity were made off the coast of Peru between 5°S and 16°S from the R/V MELVILLE, 4 March - 22 May 1977, and the R/V ISELIN, 5 April - 19 May 1977. These observations were made as part of MAM 77, the final phase of...

A compilation of observations from moored current meters. Vol. 12. Wind currents and temperature over the continental shelf and slope off Peru during JOINT II, March 1976-May 1977

Creator:: Enfield, David B., Smith, Robert L. (Robert Lloyd), 1935-, and Huyer, Adriana, 1945-
Abstract:: Oregon State University installed and recovered moorings along the coast of Peru during the period late March 1976 through mid-May 1977. A mid-shelf mooring near 15°S (MILA) was maintained for the full duration of the experiment, through five successive installations. This site was complemented by six other moorings in the...
