Estuaries are once again emerging as important ecosystems for scientific study. Consequently, knowledge of what research has been conducted helps us identify benchmarks and plan new projects. A comprehensive bibliography of published research, technical reports, local documents, and data sets is one means of recording this knowledge. Yaquina Bay, located...
Oregon's estuaries are important ecosystems for scientific study. Consequently, knowledge of what research has been conducted helps us identify benchmarks and plan new projects. A comprehensive bibliography of published research, technical reports, local documents, and data sets is one means of recording this knowledge. For these reasons, the Guin Library...
As part of the Peru Currents study, CTD observations were made between February 1983 and April 1985 between 3° N to 17° S off the coasts of Peru and Ecuador. Vertical sections of temperature, salinity and sigma-theta vs
depth from 0 to 625 m are presented for each section completed...
In this report we will present vertical sections of temperature, salinity and sigma-t from both CTD and bottle casts made on legs 1-5 of the R/V Eastward during JASON, and from CTD casts made on legs 1, 2 and 4 of the R/V Melville and legs .2 and 4 of...
This report is an intermediate step in analyzing part of the hydrographic data from the 1972 Coastal Upwelling Experiment (CUE) off the coast of Oregon. It presents the author's interpretation of the vertical distribution of temperature, salinity and sigma-t along lines occupied on hydrographic cruises by R/V Yaquina during CUE....
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...
We investigated sea level fluctuations at seven locations from San Francisco to Torino, British
Columbia, during a 2-year period beginning in August 1973. Using overlapping 2-month periods, we
found the alongshore correlation to vary with time and with location along the coast. In winter the
fluctuatioans are correlated along the...
As part of the U. S. GLOBEC NorthEast Pacific Program we made repeated seasonal hydrographic surveys in the northern California Current system (Figure 1) between July 1997 and September 2003. These surveys included early spring sampling along a pair of hydrographic sections, one north (at 44.6ºN) and one south (at...

Zonal and meridional Seasoar sections centered at 1°50’S, 156°06’E were repeated >30 times in three 20-day periods between November 13, 1992, and February 15, 1993. Both sections were 130 km long, and sampling depth was 0–280 m, with a vertical resolution of ~2 dbar (2 x 104 Pa) and a...
