Atmospheric boundary layer coupling to midlatitude mesoscale sea surface temperature anomalies

Creator:: Thum, Nicolai
Abstract:: This thesis examines the mechanisms that couple the monthly-averaged atmospheric boundary layer (ABL) to open-ocean sea surface temperature (SST) perturbations on scales of 50-500 km. The observed positive correlation between surface wind speed anomalies and SST anomalies is successfully simulated using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) model. In numerical...

Incorporation of aerodynamic and boundary layer resistances in determining initial evaporation rates of pesticides from turf grass

Creator:: Conway, Michael
Abstract:: Evaporative loss rates of pesticides, following application to turfgrass, were measured using the Backward-Time Lagrangian stochastic Dispersion model (Flesch, Wilson, Journal of Applied Meteorology, 34, pp. 1320-1332. All pesticides were applied to a 22.8 m x 22.8 m orchard ryegrass turf plot near Corvallis, Oregon. Solar radiation, ambient temperature, surface...

Hydrography of Coos Bay

Creator:: Queen, John and Burt, Wayne V.
Abstract:: Station data (weather, cloud cover, air temperature, salinity, water temperature, current velocity, tide stage and height, hydrogen sulphide and pH) are presented for eleven stations in and near Coos Bay. These data were collected over a three year period several times a day at approximately bi-weekly intervals.

A Compilation of observations from moored current meters. Vol. 6. Oregon continental shelf, April-October 1972

Creator:: Pillsbury, R. Dale, Bottero, J. S., Still, R. E., and Gilbert, W. E.
Abstract:: Aanderaa recording current meters, moored in CUE-I off the Oregon coast at specific depths along both the Newport hydrographic line and perpendicular to the isobaths off Depoe Bay, were set to measure water temperature, current speed, current direction and, in some cases, pressure. In addition, surface buoy meteorological stations were...

Properties of marine stratus and stratocumulus derived using collocated MODIS and CALIPSO observations

Creator:: Hayes, Christopher R.
Abstract:: Adiabatic parcel models suggest specific relationships between cloud thickness and cloud properties. Such relationships govern cloud radiative forcing and thus cloud feedbacks in the climate system. Current remote sensing techniques work well at measuring these properties in low-level cloud systems that are overcast. Significant biases exist, however, when measuring cloud...

Use of on-line computers in environmental research

Creator:: Burt, Wayne V.
Abstract:: A real-time data acquisition/central system has been developed for environmental monitoring and research. The basic elements of the system are a large instrumented spar buoy, a computer which controls data acquisition through a telemetry link and simultaneously files and analyzes the data, and the investigator who prescribes appropriate sets of...

CTD/STD measurements off the NW African coast near Cabo Conveiro during JOINT-I : R/V GILLISS cruise GS7401 Feb. 9-Apr. 23, 1974

Creator:: Barton, E. D., Stevenson, Merritt R., and Gilbert, William E.
Abstract:: Hydrographic measurements, made with CTD and STD probes in the vicinity of Cabo Corveiro, NW Africa during the JOINT-I experiment in Spring 1974, are presented. Computer plots of the vertical profiles of temperature, salinity, and sigma-t are shown for each hydrographic station. Associated values of temperature, salinity, sigma-t, specific volume...

The Code large-scale meteorological, sea surface temperature, and coastal sea level data set, 1980-84

Creator:: Halliwell, George R., Jr., Pittock, Henry L., Halliwell, Vicki, M., and Allen, J. S.
Abstract:: Meteorological, sea surface temperature, and coastal sea level data were collected along the west coast of North America from northern Baja California to the Alaska/British Columbia border from 1980 to mid-1984 for the large-scale component of the Coastal Ocean Dynamics Experiment (CODE). This report presents statistical summaries and plots of...

SEASOAR observations during a COARE surveys cruise, W9211B, 12 December 1992 to 16 January 1993

Creator:: O'Malley, Robert T., Kosro, P. M., Lukas, R., and Huyer, A.
Abstract:: An international Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) was conducted in the warm-pool region of the western equatorial Pacific Ocean over a four-month period from November 1992 through February 1993 (Webster and Lukas, 1992). Most of the oceanographic and meteorological observations were concentrated in the Intensive Flux Array (IFA) centered at...

Abstract:: Sixteen propeller anemometers were placed 29 meters above a 45-year-old (approximately) Douglas-fir stand. Correlations between paired anemometers, when viewed as a function of distance between them, showed that eddies up to 5 meters in diameter were common, and indicated that larger eddies up to 9 meters across occur. Partial correlation...
