  • El Nino related variations in nutrient and chlorophyll distributions off Oregon

    Creator:
    Corwith, Holly L.
    Abstract:
    The Oregon continental shelf waters are typically characterized by four to five major upwelling events that occur between May and October. The upwelled water is rich in nutrients, which fuels an increase in phytoplankton biomass. The onset of El Nino, however, can disrupt the normal physical processes along the Oregon...

  • Simulation of tropical pacific circulation anomalies with linear atmosphere and ocean models

    Creator:
    Dixit, Sanjay
    Abstract:
    A simple atmosphere and ocean model of relevance to El Nino and Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is discussed. Both the atmosphere and ocean models are two layer, three dimensional, linear and baroclinic, and generally follow the Oregon State University coupled general circulation model. However, the parameterization differs considerably from previous work...
