Abstract
  • Wecoma cruise W8706A was conducted in June 1987 as part of the pilot study for the Coastal Transition Zone project. CTD observations were made in the coastal transition zone off northern California between 37.5°N and 41.5°N and along 43°13'N off Coos Bay, Oregon. Altogether 133 stations were completed successfully. They were concentrated along three alongshore transects, at distances of 60, 90 and 150 km from the coast. Maximum sampling depth at most stations was 500 m. Temperature, salinity, light transmission and fluorescence were measured at all stations. This report presents vertical profile plots and tabulations of data at selected depths for each station; vertical sections of temperature, salinity and potential density anomaly (sigma-theta) for the long alongshore and cross-shore sections; and maps of temperature, salinity, potential density anomaly, dynamic topography and fluorescence at selected depths.
