Abstract: Observations of the velocity fields over the continental shelf and slope off Oregon and off Peru have shown that there is a phase difference in the onshore-offshore direction, with the velocity fluctuations nearshore leading ...

Abstract: An analysis is presented of low-frequency (<0.4 cpd) fluctuations in currents, temperature and tide gage data collected during the March-September 1976 segment of the CUEA JOINT-II experiment off the coast of Peru. The ...

Abstract: Spring conditions at the shelf break in the Middle Atlantic Bight mark the transition period between the generally well-mixed shelf water in winter and the highly stratified shelf conditions during summer. A high-resolution ...

Abstract: Coordinated meteorological and oceanographic (CTD) measurements were made near Point Conception, California, during March?April 1981. The goal of the observations was to study coastal upwelling and the local characteristics ...
