Mapping semi-regular autonomous underwater vehicle glider observations onto a cross-shelf section

Creator:: Peery, Andrew Tristan
Abstract:: Two Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Gliders have alternated continuous sampling of a 45-nautical mile transect line (the Newport Hydrographic Line) across the Oregon continental shelf since April, 2006. Strong currents (>25cm/s) push the gliders off their trajectories as they survey this transect line, preventing them from sampling the historically occupied stations...

Sea surface height and geostrophic velocity variability in the California current system as observed from the TOPEX altimeter

Creator:: Righi, Dylan D.
Abstract:: Eight years (1994-2000) of data from the TOPEX/Poseidon satellite altimeter are used to investigate the variability of the sea surface height and geostrophic velocity of the California Current system. The TOPEX/Posiedon satellite measures SSH along an exact-repeat set of groundtracks with a 10-day repeat cycle. In the domain studied here...

Evaluating space use and pesticide exposure risk for burrowing owls in an agricultural environment

Creator:: Gervais, Jennifer A.
Abstract:: Large burrowing owl (Aihene cunicularia) populations exist in areas of intensive agriculture in California, and pesticide exposure has been identified as a potential threat to population persistence. I evaluated breeding season use of agricultural fields by adult male owls using radio telemetry, and examined egg contaminant residues to estimate population-level...

The inherent optical properties of the oceans: from closure to prediction

Creator:: Barnard, Andrew Heath
Abstract:: Precise in situ measurement of the spectral absorption and scattering coefficients in several regions has revealed patterns in the distribution of the inherent optical properties on spatial scales that were previously unobtainable. The precision of the measurements was found to be consistent and unbiased across a variety of oceanic regimes...

The South Atlantic Ocean response to local and remote forcings

Creator:: Fetter Filho, Antonio F. H.
Abstract:: The local and remote sources of variability of the South Atlantic Ocean are investigated using a set of numerical experiments and satellite data. A global, eddy-permitting, numerical simulation is analyzed to investigate the dynamical links between the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and the Malvinas Current (MC). The model results indicate...

Numerical model investigations of wind-driven coastal circulation

Creator:: Cervantes, Brandy T.
Abstract:: The effects of wind forcing on coastal ocean circulation are studied using a numerical modeling approach. The first region of interest is on the North Carolina shelf, where the Coastal Ocean Processes (CoOP) Inner Shelf Study (ISS) took place during August - November 1994. ISS observations are used to initialize,...

Modeling studies of the coastal circulation off northern California

Creator:: Pullen, Julie D.
Abstract:: By implementing a series of mass-conserving nested high-resolution models down to approximately 1 km resolution that have realistic bathymetry, coastline, wind forcing and river run-off, the winter 1996-1997 shelf flow near Cape Mendocino, California, is simulated and compared with available observations from the Strata Formation on Margins (STRATAFORM) marine geology...

ALS-inhibitor resistant downy brome (Bromus tectorum L.) biotypes in Oregon : Mechanism of resistance, fitness, and competition

Creator:: Park, Kee-Woong
Abstract:: Understanding the mechanism of resistance, relative fitness and competitiveness of herbicide resistant biotypes is important to predict population dynamics and to establish resistance management strategies. This study was conducted to determine the level of resistance to acetolactate synthase (ALS) inhibitors and the mechanism of resistance of ALS-inhibitor resistant downy brome...
