The fall transition of Oregon shelf waters

Creator:: Reid, Brad
Abstract:: A long and gradual transition between the summer and winter oceanic regimes was observed off Oregon during the autumn of 1980. Hydrographic sections and a single current meter mooring between August and December show the ocean possessed characteristics during fall that have not been observed during other seasons: a slow...

A statistical analysis of sea level and wind stress at seven locations on the West Coast of North America

Creator:: Osmer, Stephen Robert
Abstract:: Sea level and the alongshore component of wind stress data at seven locations on the Pacific coast of Canada and the United States were analyzed. The effective data period was from August 1, 1973 to September 9, 1975. The seven locations were Tofino, British Columbia; Neah Bay and Toke Point,...

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...

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...

Geomorphic controls on hyporheic exchange flow in mountain streams

Creator:: Kasahara, Tamao
Abstract:: Simulations of stream-subsurface water exchange (hyporheic exchange) using a three-dimensional steady state groundwater flow model and a particle tracking model in unconstrained and constrained reaches of small (2nd-order) and intermediate (5th-order) mountain streams were conducted to estimate the effects of geomorphic features on the extent, volume and residence time of...

A study of the relationship between local winds and currents over the continental shelf off Oregon

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945-
Abstract:: This thesis demonstrates that at low frequencies (periods longer than 2.5 days) local currents off the coast of Oregon are closely related to the wind. Wind and current observations made during August and September 1969 are described and compared to demonstrate that a relationship exists; the physics of the interaction...

Observations of the coastal upwelling region off Oregon during 1972

Creator:: Huyer, Adriana, 1945-
Abstract:: Observations of wind, currents, sea level and hydrography obtained during the 1972 Coastal Upwelling Experiment (CUE-I) are described. Only phenomena with periods longer than a day are considered. One section describes the changes observed during a period of variable winds in early July 1972. Another describes a ribbon of relatively...

Equatorward jets and poleward undercurrents along the eastern boundary of the mid-latitude north Pacific

Creator:: Pierce, Stephen D.
Abstract:: We sharpen our view of an eastern boundary current region during the upwelling season through the analysis of several data sets. We focus on the mesoscale flow field off of northern California, observed during the Coastal Transition Zone (CTZ) experiment of 1988. First, we estimate tidal currents in the region...

Mapping semi-regular autonomous underwater vehicle glider observations onto a cross-shelf section

Creator:: Peery, Andrew Tristan
Abstract:: Two Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Gliders have alternated continuous sampling of a 45-nautical mile transect line (the Newport Hydrographic Line) across the Oregon continental shelf since April, 2006. Strong currents (>25cm/s) push the gliders off their trajectories as they survey this transect line, preventing them from sampling the historically occupied stations...

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...

Abstract:: Demographic characteristics of juvenile Dover sole (Microstomus pacificus) were examined in relation to physical and biotic factors to develop a hypothesis explaining annual variations in recruitment. Surveys were conducted along the Oregon continental shelf at depths between 50-400 m bimonthly during 1989 and annually (in March) between 1990 and 1993....

Low frequency variations in the sea level and currents over the Oregon continental shelf

Abstract:: Sea level and current observations made over the Oregon continental shelf exhibit wavelike characteristics in a frequency band from approximately 0.15 to 0.45 cpd. In a narrow band around 0.22 cpd the current-sea level relationship is consistent with the predicted values for the first mode of Robinson's continental shelf waves....
