Abstract
  • The Columbia River plume region was investigated during the period of 20 June to 3 July, 1968 by light scattering measurements and standard hydrographic station observations. The Columbia River plume was traced by the light scattering particles of the plume water. The light scattering particles are estimated to be contained in the plume water for 30 to 50 days. On the basis of the data taken in the Columbia River plume region, a conceptual model is made to describe the flow of river originated particles to the ocean water. In the distribution of the light scattering particles a northward deep current under the plume near the river mouth and a subsurface offshore flow near the bottom of the Columbia River plume are shown.
