Temperature, salinity, pressure, and transmissivity profile data from R/V Thomas G. Thompson off the coast of northern Oregon and southern Washington in 1979 and 1981 (NCEI Accession 0115413)

Published by NOAA National Centers for Environmental Information | National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration, Department of Commerce | Catalog Last Checked: August 03, 2026 at 02:28 AM | Dataset Last Updated: March 21, 2014 at 12:00 AM
This set of hydrographic casts are from two cruises. These cruises were part of a Department of Energy sponsored program entitled "Pollutant Transport and Sediment Dispersal in the Washington-Oregon Coastal Zone". The program included CTD temperature, salinity, pressure and transmissivity observations. The focus of the multidisciplinary study was to investigate coastal upwelling, in particular, how along-isobath currents on a continental shelf are affected by the presence of a broad submarine canyon and quantify the distribution of productivity of phytoplankton and nutrient in the coastal zone.
