We present velocity observations from a shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) on
R/V Wecoma during cruise W0301b (19 January - 3 February 2003). The cruise was a component
(Survey III) of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) experiment. The
ADCP was an RD Instruments hull-mounted 153-kHz narrowband...
We present velocity observations from a shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) on
R/V Wecoma during cruise W0108a (6-25 August 2001). The cruise was a component (Survey
II) of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) experiment. The ADCP was an
RD Instruments hull-mounted 153-kHz narrowband unit. Data were...
Bats represent the second most diverse group of mammals inhabiting the western slopes of the Cascade Range in southern Washington and Oregon Coast Range. Bat populations may well be sensitive to changes in forest age, structure, or distribution, but their nocturnal habits and high mobility render the study of the...
The distribution of the freshwater myxozoan parasite Ceratonova shasta in the Pacific Northwest of North America is limited to overlap in the ranges of its 2 hosts: the polychaete Manyunkia sp., and Pacific salmonids. Studies in the Klamath River (Oregon/California) and Deschutes River (Oregon), showed that the parasite population is...
The research question address in this study is, “To what extent will the use of hands-on activities for introducing concepts in bioinformatics promote student engagement in after-school STEM club settings?” It is hypothesized that high school students' engagement in hands-on bioinformatics activities promotes their awareness of, and interest in, STEM...
We present velocity observations from a shipboard acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) on RJV Revelle during cruises R9710 (20 October to 23 November 1997) and R9801 (9 January to 7 February 1998). The cruises were conducted as part of the Southern Ocean JGOFS (Joint Global Ocean Flux) Antarctic Polar Frontal...
Accurate ship velocity is important for determining absolute currents from acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP) measurements. In this paper, the authors describe the application of two methods to improve the quality of ship velocity estimates. The first uses wide-area differential global positioning system (WADGPS) navigation to improve ship positioning. During...
