Creator:: Shearman, R. Kipp and Lentz, Steven J.
Abstract:: Current and hydrographic observations from the Coastal Mixing and Optics experiment moored array, deployed from August 1996 through June 1997, are used to describe the velocity variability and evaluate the dynamics of circulation over the New England shelf on timescales ranging from a few days to several months. Subtidal (days...

Creator:: Shearman, R. Kipp and Lentz, Steven J.
Abstract:: Sea surface temperature variations along the entire U.S. East Coast from 1875 to 2007 are characterized using a collection of historical observations from lighthouses and lightships combined with recent buoy and shore-based measurements. Long-term coastal temperature trends are warming in the Gulf of Maine [1.0° ± 0.3°C (100 yr)⁻¹] and...

Creator:: Kirincich, Anthony R., Lentz, Steven J., and Barth, John A.
Abstract:: Recent work by S. Lentz et al. documents offshore transport in the inner shelf due to a wave-driven return flow associated with the Hasselmann wave stress (the Stokes–Coriolis force). This analysis is extended using observations from the central Oregon coast to identify the wave-driven return flow present and quantify the...

Creator:: Shearman, R. Kipp and Lentz, Steven J.
Abstract:: Observations from the Coastal Mixing and Optics experiment moored array, deployed from August 1996 through June 1997, are used to describe barotropic and baroclinic tidal variability over the New England shelf. The dominant M₂ tidal elevations decrease toward the northeast to a minimum over the Nantucket shoals (about 34 cm),...

Creator:: Beardsley, Robert C., Denver, Edward P., Lentz, Steven J., and Dean, Jerome P.
Abstract:: Surface heat flux components are estimated at a midshelf site over the northern California shelf using moored measurements from the 1981-1982 Coastal Ocean Dynamics Experiment (CODE) and the 1988-1989 Shelf Mixed Layer Experiment (SMILE). Time series of estimated fluxes extend from early winter through summer upwelling conditions, allowing examination of...
