Variability in mesoscale circulation and its effects on zooplankton distribution in the Northern California Current

Creator:: Keister, Julie Eileen
Abstract:: In eastern boundary current upwelling ecosystems, mesoscale circulation features such as eddies and upwelling filaments play a prominent role in the transfer of water and the associated plankton from the productive nearshore to the oligotrophic deep sea. The relationship between mesoscale circulation, zooplankton distributions, and the across-shelf transport of coastal...

Upper ocean water properties and currents along paired sections in the Northern California current, spring 1998-2003

Creator:: Fleischbein, Jane H., Huyer, Adriana, 1945-, Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, Smith, Robert L. (Robert Lloyd), 1935-, Wetz, Jennifer Jarrell, and Wheeler, Patricia A.
Abstract:: As part of the U. S. GLOBEC NorthEast Pacific Program we made repeated seasonal hydrographic surveys in the northern California Current system (Figure 1) between July 1997 and September 2003. These surveys included early spring sampling along a pair of hydrographic sections, one north (at 44.6ºN) and one south (at...

Trophic dynamics of marine nekton and zooplankton in the Northern California Current ecosystem

Creator:: Miller, Todd William
Abstract:: The Northern California Current (NCC) ecosystem exhibits extreme seasonal, interannual and interdecadal shifts in the abiotic environment and shifts in primary and higher production. This variability is also apparent in the spatial structure of the ecosystem with nearshore-shelf waters (<150 m isobath) being highly productive and having a different community...

SeaSoar observations during the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) mesoscale survey II : R/V Wecoma cruise from 6 to 26 August 2001

Creator:: O'Malley, Robert T., Barth, John A., and Erofeev, Anatoli Y.
Abstract:: As part of the Coastal Ocean Processes (CoOP) project Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST), this was the second of two cruises in 2001 to study cross-shelf transport processes in a wind-driven coastal ocean. The project includes field experiments off the Oregon coast and coordinated ocean circulation/ecosystem and atmospheric...

Observations from moorings on the Oregon continental shelf, May-August 2001 : a component of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) experiment

Creator:: Boyd, Timothy John, 1958-2013, Levine, Murray D., Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, Gard, Steve R., Waldorf, Walt, and Oregon State University. College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences
Abstract:: This report documents the oceanographic and meteorological measurements made by the Mooring Observations component of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) project during the upwelling experiment from May to August 2001. The focus of COAST is to study the cross-shelf transport processes in a wind-driven system by making...

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,...

Inner-shelf circulation off the central Oregon Coast

Creator:: Kirincich, Anthony R.
Abstract:: Inner-shelf circulation and mechanisms of across-shelf transport of water masses were examined using seven years of observations collected by the Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO) program, a long-term monitoring effort along the central Oregon coast. Since 1998, moored velocity and hydrographic measurements have been obtained during the...

Health risk of bathing in Southern California coastal waters

Creator:: Brinks, Mitchell V.
Abstract:: Bathers exposed to microbiological contamination in coastal waters have an excess risk of gastrointestinal and respiratory illness. The disease burden associated with this risk may be considerable in Southern California, where 50 million annual beach visitors recreate in coastal waters that receive billions of gallons of polluted discharges from nearby...
