Decomposition of absorption coefficients and decorrelation lengthscales of hydrographic and inherent optical properties in the Middle Atlantic Bight

Creator:: Simeon, Jennifer J.
Abstract:: This investigation is an exploration of the use of inherent optical properties towards further elucidation of coastal circulation processes occurring on the continental shelf and slope in the Middle Atlantic Bight, south of Cape Cod Massachusetts, during 14-Aug to 1-Sep 1996 and 25-Apr to 15-May 1997. Assessing the possibility of...

The effect of river discharge and wind forcing on the Oregon coastal ocean during fall and winter

Creator:: Mazzini, Piero Luigi Fernandes
Abstract:: Freshwater provided from river discharge influences the dynamics and circulation of most continental shelves around the world. It has profound effects on the transport and fate of materials and substances originated from rivers and estuaries, as well as on the ocean biogeochemistry and marine ecosystems. The effect of buoyancy forcing...

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...

Endogenous activity rhythms of the vertically migrating ocean shrimp

Creator:: Frey, John Richard
Abstract:: This study is an investigation of the endogenous, or internal, rhythms of activity in the ocean shrimp, Pandalus jordani, Groups of shrimp were kept in constant light and temperature conditions in the laboratory, and activity was monitored visually and with infrared photography. Other groups of animals were exposed to 24-hour...

Swimbladder morphology and buoyancy of Northeastern Pacific myctophids

Creator:: Butler, John Lawton
Abstract:: Of the common adult lanternfishes found off Oregon, two species have fat-invested swimbladders (Stenobrachius leucopsarus Eigenmann and Eigenmann 1890 and Stenobrachius nannochir Gilbert 1891), two species have reduced swimbladders (Lampanyctus ritteri Gilbert 1915 and Lampanyctus galis Gilbert 1891), two species have gas-filled swimbladders ((Protomyctophum thomp soni (Chapman 1944)) and (Protomyctophum...

Sediment transport on the northern Oregon continental shelf

Creator:: Harlett, John Charles
Abstract:: The distribution of surface sediments on the northern Oregon continental shell is characterized by a nearshore sandy facies and an outer shelf muddy facies, separated by a mid-shelf zone of mixed sand and mud. Currents which have been measured at 130 centimeters above the bottom indicate that the distribution of...

On coastal trapped waves at low latitudes in a stratified ocean

Creator:: Romea, Richard Dennis
Abstract:: The response on the continental shelf of a baroclinic ocean to driving by an alongshore coastal wind stress and by barotropic and baroclinic wind forced interior motions is studied as a function of latitude. The relative excitation of continental shelf waves and internal Kelvin waves is studied. The response of...
