The MILDEX cruise of October - November 1983 was a
multiship (including FLIP) experiment involving intensive
sampling of the ocean by a variety of instruments. The RV
Wecoma operated by Oregon State University College of
Oceanography sailed from Newport, Oregon on October 21 and
returned to San Diego, California on...
During 1971 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. Daily observations for six stations
are listed along with monthly maxima, minima, means and standard deviations
of temperature and salinity.
During 1970 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 1969 are contained in eight Data Reports which are listed under
references. The data in this report were collected...
An international Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment
(COARE) was conducted in the warm-pool region of the western equatorial
Pacific Ocean over a four-month period from November 1992 through February
1993 (Webster and Lukas, 1992). Most of the oceanographic and meteorological
observations were concentrated in the Intensive Flux Array (IFA) centered at...
This report summarizes the Seasoar and CTD observations from Wecoma
cruises W9306A (5 June to 12 July, 1993) and W9308B (14 August to 22 September
1993) conducted as part of the Eastern Boundary Currents Accelerated Research
Initiative, under funding by the Office of Naval Research. The cruises were
designed to...
The Department of Oceanography, Oregon State University, has
initiated a program for obtaining weekly samples of surface temperature
and salinity off the Oregon coast. Observations for 1960 and.1961 are
included in two Data Reports: No. 6 (Kujala and Wyatt, 1961) and No. 8
(Oliphant, Wyatt and Kujala, 1962). Data in...

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
