Creator:: Dever, Edward P.
Abstract:: Along- and cross-shelf correlation scales of subtidal cross-shelf (u) and alongshelf (ν) velocities are estimated using moored records from several field programs over the northern California shelf. Over record lengths of 4-6 months, along-shelf correlation scales of ν are greater than maximum mooring separations (60 km). In the cross-shelf direction...

Abstract:: Heat and salt balances are estimated over the northern California shelf from early December 1988 through late February 1989 (winter) and from early March through early May 1989 (spring) from moored meteorological and oceanographic time series taken in 93 m of water 6.3 km from the coast. We find a...

Creator:: Pringle, James M. and Dever, Edward P.
Abstract:: In north and central California, equatorward winds drive equatorward flows and the upwelling of cold dense water over the shelf during the midspring and summer upwelling season. When the winds temporarily weaken, the upwelling flows between Point Reyes and Point Arena ‘‘relax,’’ becoming strongly poleward over the shelf. Analytical and...

Abstract:: The near-surface circulation in the Santa Barbara Channel and off the coast of central and southern California is described based on 20 releases of drifters drogued 1 m beneath the surface from 12 sites within the channel at bimonthly intervals. This description includes small-scale features of the circulation which are...

Abstract:: Satellite altimeter measurements of marine gravity reveal 100 to 200-km wavelength lineations over a wide area of the Pacific plate oriented roughly in the direction of absolute plate motion. At least three mechanisms have been proposed for their origin: smallscale convective rolls aligned in the direction of absolute plate motion...

Abstract:: Radiocarbon measurements at ice margin sites and blue ice areas can potentially be used for ice dating, ablation rate estimates and paleoclimatic reconstructions. Part of the measured signal comes from in situ cosmogenic ¹⁴C production in ice, and this component must be well understood before useful information can be extracted...

Abstract:: We have measured the CO₂ concentration of air occluded during the last 40,000 years in the deep Siple Dome A (hereafter Siple Dome) ice core, Antarctica. The general trend of CO₂ concentration from Siple Dome ice follows the temperature inferred from the isotopic composition of the ice and is mostly...

Abstract:: The thermal properties of sediment and the albedo are critical in calculating the heat flux of a tidal flat. However, they are not well known because of the difficulties of sampling and observing tidal flats. We use extensive field observations of a macrotidal flat on the western coast of Korea...

Abstract:: In 1989, we conducted an onshore/offshore seismic experiment to image the crustal structure of the Cascadia forearc. In this paper, we discuss the processing and interpretation of a multichannel seismic reflection profile across the continental margin that was collected as part of this effort. This profile reveals several features of...

Abstract:: Surface heat flux components are estimated at a midshelf site over the northern California shelf using moored measurements from the 1981-1982 Coastal Ocean Dynamics Experiment (CODE) and the 1988-1989 Shelf Mixed Layer Experiment (SMILE). Time series of estimated fluxes extend from early winter through summer upwelling conditions, allowing examination of...
