  • Description and analysis of dietary preference of lingcod in the nearshore zone, Oregon

    Creator:
    Tinus, Craig A.
    Abstract:
    The lingcod (Ophiodon elongatus) is an important groundfish species in both recreational and commercial fisheries of the Northeastern Pacific. It is a large, fast-growing, generalist predator of invertebrates and fishes.

  • Shear and convective turbulence in a model of thermohaline intrusions

    Creator:
    Mueller, Rachael
    Abstract:
    Thermohaline interleaving is an important mechanism for laterally fluxing salt, heat, and nutrients between oceanic water masses. Interleaving is driven by a release of potential energy resulting from the vastly differing diffusivities of heat and salt in seawater. The flows are composed of stacked intrusions that flux more buoyant and...
