Measurements of temperature and salinity in the upper 5 m of the ocean
along the equator showed cool fresh anomalies due to rain showers. The
measurements were made between 140 W and 110 W during April 1987, an
El Nino year. The eastern equatorial Pacific was characterized by weak winds...
This data report contains observations made from R/P FLIP as part of the first process-oriented NORPAX (North Pacific Experiment) experiment. The experiment was named POLE to indicate that the horizontal extent of sampling was small compared to the largest scale investigated in NORPAX.
The part of the experiment reported here...
Hydrographic and CTD measurements were taken from ninety-eight stations between Honolulu, Hawaii and Kodiak, Alaska from 4 May to 4 June 1984 on the second leg of the Marathon Expedition. This report consists of the cruise track, vertical sections, listings of all discrete hydrographic data, a subsample of the CTD...
We present velocity observations from a shipboard acoustic doppler current profiler (ADCP) on RN Wecoma during cruise W9508b, 17-27 August 1995. Results from the short half-day cruise W9508c on 31 August 1995 are also shown. The ADCP processing procedures for W9508b are described in detail. This cruise was part of...
The primary objectives of R/V Wecoma cruise W9907C were to: 1) collect threedimensional fields of temperature, salinity, and light absorption and attenuation using the towed, undulating vehicle SeaSoar; 2) collect 3-D fields of velocity using shipboard ADCP; 3) to make turbulence profiles along a single cross-shelf transect; and 4) locate,...
This report summarizes the SeaSoar and CTD observations from R/V Wecoma cruise
W9408A (23 August to 2 September 1994) conducted as part of the Coastal Jet Separation
(CJS) experiment, under funding from the National Science Foundation. The goal of this
study is to establish how and why a strong alongshore...
This study examines the seasonal variability in temperature and
salinity of the nearshore waters off Oregon and Northern California.
Specifically, temperature and salinity variations during summer and
winter were ana1yzed from data gathered at shore stations along the
coast and from hydrographic data collected within 25 nautical miles
of shore....
The principal salinity extrema and extremum surfaces of the
world ocean are described by the analysis and plotting of data from
885 hydrographic stations in the three major oceans, the Southern
Ocean, and the American Mediterranean Sea. The distributions of
salinity, temperature, depth, and density along the extremum surfaces,
plotted...
During 1967 the Department of Oceanography, Oregon State University, continued its program of shore sampling of ocean temperatures and salinities along the coast of the Pacific Northwest. Observations for 1960 through 1966 are contained in five Data Reports which are listed under references. The data in this report were collected...
During 1968 the Department of Oceanography, Oregon State
University, continued its program of shore sampling of ocean temperatures
and salinities along the coast of the Pacific Northwest.
Observations for 1960 through 1967 are contained in six Data Reports
which are listed under references. The data in this report
were collected...
