Rainfall over coastal waters of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Reed, Ronald Keith
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to ascertain the magnitude and distribution of rainfall over coastal waters of the northwestern United States and to compare values with those at nearby land stations. Precipitation was measured with gauges at Totem, rainfall amounts were assessed from weather reports at lightships off the...

Oogenesis in Mytilus californianus

Creator:: Elvin, David Winter
Abstract:: A two-year field study was made of a population of the California Sea Mussel, Mytilus californianus, located on a protected tidal bench at Yaquina Head on the Central Oregon Coast. This animal was chosen because it is attached to the rocks, filters particulate matter from the water, produces large amounts...

The structure of an arctic shallow water benthic community : effects of ice gouging

Creator:: Braun, Gary Michael
Abstract:: The shallow water benthic habitat of the SW Beaufort Sea is frequently gouged by the keels of ice pressure ridges. This natural physical disturbance was hypothesized to be an important factor affecting the structure of the benthic community. Smith-McIntyre grab samples were taken from three discrete gouge axes and from...

Bio-physical interactions of small pelagic fish schools and zooplankton prey in the California Current System over multiple scales

Creator:: Kaltenberg, Amanda May
Abstract:: Small pelagic fish represent a critical trophic link between plankton and large predators in marine upwelling ecosystems such as the California Current System. Populations of these fish are highly variable over time and are characterized by extreme fluctuations in abundance, which have significant ecosystem impacts. The causes driving this instability...

Calanoid copepod diet in an upwelling system : phagotrophic protists vs. phytoplankton

Creator:: Fessenden, Lynne M.
Abstract:: Calanoid copepod diet was investigated in Oregon coastal waters to determine the trophic significance of phagotrophic protists as copepod prey within an ecosystem where the microplankton biomass is typically dominated by large diatoms. Prior to and during the 1991 upwelling season, clearance rates on phytoplankton and phagotrophic ciliates were measured...

The analysis and recommended design of a high-resolution digital data acquisition system for the in situ measurement of various physical and chemical parameters of sea water

Creator:: Albin, Arthur Grayson
Abstract:: The lack of availability of a single, complete paper on the analysis of a digital data acquisition system for in situ oceanographic measurements brought about the present work. In order to compile an accurate technical paper on such a complex system, it was necessary to design, construct, and calibrate a...

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...
