Structure and kinematics of the permanent oceanic front off the Oregon coast

Creator:

Collins, Curtis Allan

Abstract:

Using the hydrographic data collected by the ACONA from June 1961 to May 1963, the Oregon coastal front has been examined. Representative sigma-t surfaces were chosen to delineate the front, and changes in position of these surfaces with time were used to obtain zonal flow rates for the frontal and...

Chemistry and hydrography of Oregon coastal waters and the Willamette and Columbia Rivers : March and June, 1971

Creator:

Kantz, Kent William

Abstract:

An inexpensive method for calibrating an infrared analyzer to measure varying ranges of carbon dioxide partial pressures (Pco₂) is described. A discussion is made of the hydrographic (temperature, salinity, and sigma-t) and chemical (dissolved oxygen, AOU, Pco₂ pH, and nutrients) variables that were observed along the Newport hydrographic line in...

Climate and heat exchange in the oceanic region adjacent to Oregon

Creator:

Lane, Robert Kenneth

Abstract:

The climate and the exchange of heat between atmosphere and ocean are examined in a region adjacent to Washington and Oregon, and in two sub-regions adjacent to Oregon. The sub-regions are chosen such that one contains the nearshore upwelling region and the other borders it on the seaward side. The...
