Creator:: Waldbusser, George G., Brunner, Elizabeth L., Haley, Brian A., Hales, Burke, Langdon, Christopher J., and Prahl, Frederick G.
Abstract:: Acidified waters are impacting commercial oyster production in the U.S. Pacific Northwest, and favorable carbonate chemistry conditions are predicted to become less frequent. Within 48 h of fertilization, unshelled Pacific oyster (Crassostrea gigas) larvae precipitate roughly 90% of their body weight as calcium carbonate. We measured stable carbon isotopes in...

Creator:: Wheat, C. Geoffrey, McManus, James, Mottl, Michael J., and Giambalvo, Emily
Abstract:: We present a new estimate for the crustal phosphorous sink that results from reactions among seawater, basalt, and sediment blanketing low temperature mid-ocean ridge flank hydrothermal systems. New estimates for global hydrothermal power output, sediment thickness, and the dissolved phosphate concentrations in basement formation fluids indicate that fluid flow through...

Creator:: Strub, P. Ted and James, Corinne
Abstract:: Surface transports into the California Current are calculated from TOPEX/POSEIDON altimeter surface height slopes during the 9.5 year period from October 1992–May 2002. These quantify the anomalous onshore and southward displacements of the water column during the 2000–2002 period, which had been hypothesized by others based on anomalous water properties...

Creator:: Strub, P. Ted and James, Corinne
Abstract:: Satellite data from the Geosat altimeter and the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) are used to show the large-scale structure of the surface circulation of the California Current System in summer. These data show the connection between an equatorward jet and temperature front off Oregon that lies within 100...

Creator:: Mote, Philip W., Holton, James R., Russell, James M., and Boville, Byron A.
Abstract:: Recent measurements (21 September - 15 October 1992) of methane and water vapor by the Halogen Occultation Experiment (HALOE) on the Upper Atmosphere Research Satellite (UARS) are compared with model results for the same season from a troposphere-middle atmosphere version of the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR )Community Climate...

Creator:: Klymak, Jody M. and Moum, James N.
Abstract:: A sequence of three internal solitary waves of elevation were observed propagating shoreward along a near-bottom density interface over Oregon’s continental shelf. These waves are highly turbulent and coincide with enhanced optical backscatter, consistent with increased suspended sediments in the bottom boundary layer. Nonlinear solitary wave solutions are employed to...

Creator:: Moore, Keith J., Abbott, Mark R., Richman, James G., Smith, Walker O., Cowles, Timothy J., Coale, Kenneth H., Gardner, Wilford D., and Barber, Richard T.
Abstract:: SeaWiFS estimates of surface chlorophyll concentrations are reported for the region of the U.S. JGOFS study in the Southern Ocean (∼ 170 °W, 60 °S). Elevated chlorophyll was observed at the Southern Ocean fronts, near the edge of the seasonal ice sheet, and above the Pacific Antarctic Ridge. The elevated...

Creator:: Sayde, Chadi, Thomas, Christoph K., Wagner, James, and Selker, John
Abstract:: We present a novel technique to simultaneously measure wind speed (U) at thousands of locations continuously in time based on measurement of velocity-dependent heat transfer from a heated surface. Measuring temperature differences between paired passive and actively heated fiber-optic (AHFO) cables with a distributed temperature sensing system allowed estimation of...

Creator:: Matheson, Mark A., Coakley, James A., and Tahnk, William R.
Abstract:: Empirical estimates of the aerosol indirect radiative forcing often rely on threshold cloud retrievals applied to multispectral satellite imagery data. In such retrievals, pixels having radiances that surpass prescribed thresholds are assumed to be overcast even if they are only partially cloud covered. This assumption leads to cloud visible optical...

Abstract:: A high resolution stratospheric version of the NCAR Community Climate Model (CCM2) with an annual cycle was used to simulate the global transport and dispersion of the Pinatuboa aerosol cloud. A passive tracer was injected into the model stratosphere over the Philippines Islands on model day June15, and the transport...
