Inner-shelf circulation off the central Oregon Coast

Creator:: Kirincich, Anthony R.
Abstract:: Inner-shelf circulation and mechanisms of across-shelf transport of water masses were examined using seven years of observations collected by the Partnership for Interdisciplinary Studies of Coastal Oceans (PISCO) program, a long-term monitoring effort along the central Oregon coast. Since 1998, moored velocity and hydrographic measurements have been obtained during the...

Observations from moorings on the Oregon continental shelf, May-August 2001 : a component of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) experiment

Creator:: Boyd, Timothy John, 1958-2013, Levine, Murray D., Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, Gard, Steve R., Waldorf, Walt, and Oregon State University. College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences
Abstract:: This report documents the oceanographic and meteorological measurements made by the Mooring Observations component of the Coastal Ocean Advances in Shelf Transport (COAST) project during the upwelling experiment from May to August 2001. The focus of COAST is to study the cross-shelf transport processes in a wind-driven system by making...

Interactions of wind-driven and tidally-driven circulation in the Oregon coastal ocean

Creator:: Osborne, John J.
Abstract:: Influences of tidal and slower (subtidal) oceanic flows over the continental shelf and slope off Oregon are studied using a high-resolution ocean circulation model and comparative model-data analyses. The model is based on the Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS), a fully nonlinear, three-dimensional model (using hydrostatic and Boussinesq approximations). The...

Organization of persistent upwelling structures : hydrographic observations, 5 April-10 May 1983. Vol. 2

Creator:: Chelton, Dudley B., Paluszkiewicz, Theresa, Chandler, William, and Atkinson, Larry P.
Abstract:: The area near Point Arguello has long been recognized as a location of strong upwelling. A tongue of biologically active waters was observed in the earliest studies of this region (Sverdrup and Allen, 1939). More recently, satellite estimates of chlorophyll by the Coastal Zone Color Scanner (CZCS) on Nimbus-7 have...

Central California Coastal Circulation Study : drifter observations, February, July, October 1984 and January 1985

Creator:: Chelton, Dudley B.
Abstract:: Surface drifters were depldyed and tracked over the continental shelf and upper continental slope off central California between Point Conception and Point Sur. The drifters were deployed and tracked from aircraft by Aero-Marine Surveys, Inc. under subcontract to Raytheon Service Company as part of the Central California Coastal Circulation Study...

Influence of a Sedimentary Source of Nd on Deep Ocean εNd Distributions

Creator:: Abbott, April N.
Abstract:: Ocean circulation is an important component in Earth's climate system. Predicting future climate and circulation changes requires an improved understanding of the past relationship between climate and ocean currents. The neodymium isotope composition (εNd) of water masses is frequently used as a quasi-conservative tracer to reconstruct ocean circulation. The current...

Central California Coastal Circulation Study : CTD observations, cruise 8403, July 1984

Creator:: Chelton, Dudley B. and Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-
Abstract:: CTD observations were made over the continental shelf and upper continental slope from the coast to approximately 60 km off central California between latitudes 34°N and 37.5°N. The measurements were made by Raytheon Service Company as part of the Central California Coastal Circulation Study sponsored by the Minerals Management Service....

Creator:: Fleischbein, Jane, Schramm, Richard E., Huyer, Adriana, Kosro, P. Michael, Cowles, Tim, Krefft, Kevin, and Paulson, Clayton
Abstract:: Wecoma cruise W8807A was conducted in late July and early August 1988 as part of the Coastal Transition Zone project. CTD observations were made over a standard grid in the coastal transition zone off northern California between 37°N and 39.5°N that was occupied repeatedly during June, July and August; this...
