Temperature, salinity, sigma-t and dissipation profiles from the Rapid Sampling Vertical Profiler for six transects as part of the Coastal Transition zone pilot experiment, June 1987.
CTD observations were made over the continental shelf and upper continental slope from the coast to approximately 60 km off central California between latitudes 34°N and 37.5°N. The measurements were made by Raytheon Service Company as part of the Central California Coastal Circulation Study sponsored by the Minerals Management Service....
Temperature observations are presented from 4 Aanderaa thermistor chains suspended from a free-floating surface buoy during October-November 1983 near 33.5° N, 126.5° W as part of the Mixed Layer Dynamics Experiment (MILDEX). Each chain contained 11 sensors; the upper two were 30 min length, the lower two were 100 m...
CTD observations were made in the Code region near Pt. Arena on the northern California coast at 39° N during 14-27 July 1982. The observations in the Code region included three repeated sections along the Central Line, two mesoscale surveys of the shelf/slope region, and an alongshore section over the...
CTD observations were made in the CODE region between Pt. Arena (39°N) and Pt. Reyes (38°N) during 20-24 April 1982. The observations were made along seven sections: Irish Gulch, Arena, North, Code-North, Code Central, Code-2 Central and Ross Lines, and along the fifty fathom contour. Maximum sampling depth was 1000...
CTD observations were made in the CODE region between Pt. Arena(39° N) and Pt. Reyes(38°N), during 1-4 August 1981. The observations included two repeated sections along the Central Line, one section along the North Line, and one section in the region of the Pt. Ross Line rur during previous cruises....
A series of stereo photographs displays a range of residue loadings for cleancut units in three general forest types common to coastal Oregon forest lands: Douglas-fir--western hemlock (second-growth), western hemlock--Sitka spruce, and red alder. Postburn residue levels are also represented for the Douglas-fir--western hemlock, and red alder types. Information with...
Large fallen trees in various stages of decay contribute much-needed diversity of ecological processes to terrestrial, aquatic, estuarine, coastal beach, and open ocean habitats in the Pacific Northwest. Intensive utilization and management can deprive these habitats of large fallen trees. The publication presents sound information for managers making resource management...
A fully illustrated key is presented for identifying genera of oribatid mites known from or suspected of occurring in the Pacific Northwest. The manual includes an introduction detailing sampling methodology; an illustrated glossary of all terminology used; two color plates of all taxa from the H.J. Andrews Experimental Forest; a...
