The development of new technologies in science is a balance between existence and use. There are three versions of this duality – something is built and users come, something is built and users don’t come, and, finally, potential users show up but the ballpark has not yet been built. In...
This report summarizes the results of the research contract,
"Species Composition and Distribution of Marine Nekton in the Pacific
Ocean off Oregon" (AT(45-1)1726) for the two-year period from September
1, 1961, to September 1, 1963.
This is the second report of a study designed to establish the
current patterns and water mass characteristics existing along the
Oregon coast. Surveys reported on previously were concerned with
monthly samples from a maximum depth of 100 feet and out to 25 miles
offshore from Newport, Oregon. Since December...
This report presents observations from two programs in 1975, WISP and UP-75 to study circulation off Oregon. WISP was a study of the transition between the winter and spring regimes, and UP-75 was designed to determine whether there is a poleward undercurrent along the continental slope during the upwellinq season....
This report presents data collected on six cruises made during the months May-October 1972 along the Oregon coast. Both complete data listings and sequential surface data contour charts are presented. The latter graphically display rapid changes in surface water characteristics on time scales as short as a few hours.
The...
A multidisciplinary oceanographic research program was carried out by US and Canadian investigators in the spring of 1995 in the Canadian Arctic, near Lowther Island in Barrow Strait. The program, referred to here as Resolute 95 (or Res95), had a variety of objectives, including detailed examination of the mechanisms responsible...
As part of the GLOBEC NEP collaborative research project on the California Current (CC),
this was the second of two cruises in 2002 to study the physical and biological oceanographic
distributions and processes that influence juvenile salmonid habitat along the Oregon and northern
California coast. The 2002 cruises followed similar...
This report contains the data gathered at Ocean Station "P" in late June and early July of 1971 on the "SUBARCTIC-A" cruise of R/V YAQUINA. The data include: 1) temperature, salinity, and oxygen profiles; 2) estimates of zooplankton displacement volumes at different depths; and 3) estimates of the numerical density...
