Particle size distributions and the vertical distribution of suspended matter in the upwelling region off Oregon

Creator:: Kitchen, James C.
Abstract:: Various methods of presenting and mathematically describing particle size distribution are explained and evaluated. The hyperbolic distribution is found to be the most practical but the more complex characteristic vector analysis is the most sensitive to changes in the shape of the particle size distributions. Particle size distribution, nutrient concentrations,...

A mesoscale study of coastal currents and upwelling off Peru

Creator:: Enfield, David B.
Abstract:: Moored instrument records, drogue displacements, and hydrographic observations are used in describing the coastal currents and upwelling off Peru. The data were obtained over the continental shelf near 15°S. during a two week study in late March and early April of 1969. First order statistics and graphical representations of current...

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...

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...

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...

CTD transect of the Kuroshio Extension : 27°N-42°N, 152°E, May 1981 : data report

Creator:: Niiler, Pearn P., Whitman, J. Leilani, Raymer, M., and Oregon State University. School of Oceanography
Abstract:: This report presents CTD observations of temperature and salinity as a function of hydrostatic pressure in the Kuroshio Extension in May 1981. Lowerings were made from the surface to the bottom along 152°E about every 30 nautical miles between 29°N and 41°N. Identical sections were made in July 1980 and...

CTD transect of the Kuroshio Extension : 28°N-41°N, 152°E, July 1980 : data report

Creator:: Williams, Robert T.
Abstract:: This report presents CTD observations of temperature & salinity as a function of hydrostatic pressure in the Kuroshio Extension. The data was taken during the deployment of a ten element current meter array in the Kuroshio in July 1980. CTD lowerings were made from the surface to the ocean floor...
