The Wavemeter : a land-based system for measuring nearshore ocean waves

Creator:: Zopf, D. O., Creech, H. C., and Quinn, W. H.
Abstract:: This paper describes a method for measuring nearshore ocean wave characteristics with a land-based, long-period vertical seismometer. The wavemeter system has proven to be highly reliable and produces continuous wave observations at low cost. It is now operational at six Coast Guard stations along the Oregon and Washington coasts; data...

Distribution and duration of pelagic life of larvae of dover sole, Microstomus pacificus; rex sole, Glyptocephalus zachirus; and petrale sole, Eopsetta jordani, in waters off Oregon

Creator:: Pearcy, William G., Hosie, Michael J., and Richardson, Sally L.
Abstract:: Dover and rex sole larvae attain an exceptionally large size and have a long pelagic life. Dover sole larvae (9-65 mm standard length) were collected in mid-water trawls and plankton nets during all months of the year. Judging from growth of larvae and occurrence in bottom trawls of recently metamorphosed...

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....

Optical and hydrographic observations in the Congo River and Angola Basin during May 1978

Creator:: Zaneveld, J. Ronald, Spinrad, Richard W., Menzies, David W., Oregon State University. School of Oceanography, and Nederlands Instituut voor Onderzoek der Zee
Abstract:: Hydrographic and optical measurements were made in situ in the Congo River and the Angola Basin during May 1978. These measurements were made by members of the optical oceanography group at Oregon State University in cooperation with scientists from the Netherlands Institute for Sea Research. The data taken by the...

The vertical distribution of zooplankton at Ocean Station "P" in June-July, 1971

Creator:: Marlowe, Christopher J., Miller, Charles B., and Oregon State University. School of Oceanography
Abstract:: This report contains the data gathered at Ocean Station "P" in late June and early July of 1971 on the "SUBARCTIC-A" cruise of R/V YAQUINA. The data include: 1) temperature, salinity, and oxygen profiles; 2) estimates of zooplankton displacement volumes at different depths; and 3) estimates of the numerical density...

Volume scattering function of suspended particulate matter at near-forward angles: a comparison of experimental and theoretical values

Creator:: Spinrad, Richard W., Zaneveld, J. Ronald V., and Pak, Hasong
Abstract:: Narrow angle light scattering measurements were made for various sizes of spherical particles suspended in water. These were compared to calculated theoretical scattering values as derived from the theory of Mie (1908). Through measurements with different particle concentrations at angles between 0.2° and 0.7° the effect of the unscattered main...

Equatorial Front in the Eastern Pacific Ocean

Creator:: Pak, Hasong and Zaneveld, J. Ronald V.
Abstract:: The equatorial front in the eastern Pacific Ocean observed during 14 October–7 December, 1971, from R/V Yaquina of Oregon State University is discussed. The front is clearly defined at the sea surface by a large horizontal gradient of temperature, salinity, σt and nitrate. Equatorial upwelling, which is believed to be...

A Subsurface Ribbon of Cool Water over the Continental Shelf off Oregon

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana and Smith, Robert L.
Abstract:: Observations of the hydrographic regime over the continental shelf off Oregon from the R/V Yaquina during the summer of 1972 showed the presence of an alongshore, subsurface ribbon of relatively cool water. Its properties and its evolution during the 1972 season are described. Examination of earlier observations showed that evidence...

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...

Exploration of male inmates in the Deuel Vocational Institution : a case study

Creator:: McNelley, William J.
Abstract:: The purposes of this study were to (1) identify major problems faced by the youth who, in transition from school to work, have resorted to anti-social behavior and are now inmates of Deuel Vocational Institution, (2) identify the behavioral patterns of youth having employment problems that resulted in incarceration within...
