Sea water temperature and salinity characteristics observed at Oregon Coast Stations in 1961

Creator:: Denner, Warren Wilson
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: study surface temperature and salinity distributions in the Pacific Ocean. He first chose what he

The effects of rainfall on temperature and salinity in the surface layer of the equatorial Pacific

Creator:: Bahr, Frederick L.
Abstract:: Measurements of temperature and salinity in the upper 5 m of the ocean along the equator showed cool fresh anomalies due to rain showers. The measurements were made between 140 W and 110 W during April 1987, an El Nino year. The eastern equatorial Pacific was characterized by weak winds...

A mesoscale study of coastal currents and upwelling off Peru

Creator:: Enfield, David B.
Abstract:: Moored instrument records, drogue displacements, and hydrographic observations are used in describing the coastal currents and upwelling off Peru. The data were obtained over the continental shelf near 15°S. during a two week study in late March and early April of 1969. First order statistics and graphical representations of current...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: upwelling variations is examined. Vertical salinity sections indicated the presence of a weak salinity

Comparison of sea level and currents off the Oregon coast using mean monthly data

Creator:: Marthaler, James Gordon
Abstract:: Sea level and current data collected near Newport, Oregon are compared to determine an empirical relationship from which the low frequency (f < .1 cpd) alongshore current field over the continental shelf is estimated from observed sea level measurements at the coast. Regression analysis of the near-surface (20-25 m) currents...

Vertical current measurement in the Oregon coastal upwelling region

Creator:: Deckard, Dennis E.
Abstract:: Direct measurements of vertical water motions were made in the Oregon coastal region during the 1972 summer upwelling season. The instruments used were the Webb-Voorhis vertical current meters which are freely drifting neutrally buoyant floats capable of sensing vertical motion. It was found that in the region studied, water tended...

Near-inertial motions off the Oregon coast

Creator:: Anderson, Iain
Abstract:: Nearly three months of current meter records from five moorings off the Oregon coast taken between October 1977 and January 1978 were analyzed for near-inertial motions. The moorings were located from the midshelf out to the foot of the continental slope, spanning the continental margin. All but two of the...

A model of seawater structure near the west coast of Vancouver Island, British Columbia

Creator:: Lane, Robert Kenneth
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis
Full Text:: local estuarine regions and the subarctic Pacific Ocean have been described by Tully (16), and by

Computer analysis of the surface current field off Oregon based on drift bottle data

Creator:: Lung, Hu Ernest
Abstract:: The fall-winter surface current field off Oregon was determined by analysis of ten years of drift bottle data. Computer programs were developed for generating bottle tracks on a numerical grid, for interpolating bottle velocity components to fill void grid points and for smoothing irregularities in the velocity fields. Charts are...
