This set of hydrographic casts are from one cruise. This cruise was part of a Department of Energy sponsored program entitled *Pollutant Transport and Sediment Dispersal in the Washington-Oregon Coastal Zone*. The focus of the cruise is to investigate coastal upwelling, which affects the distribution of productivity of phytoplankton and nutrient distributions in the coastal zone.

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 study was investigate the effect of a narrow submarine canyon on the low-frequency mid-depth shelf circulation.

Temperature, salinity, and other data were collected from CTD casts in the Pacific Ocean (Oregon coast). Data were collected from the R/V Wecoma as part of the Coastal Jet Separation experiment from 23 August 1994 to 02 September 1994. Data include temperature and salinity profiles. Data also include sigma-thetas, specific volume anomalies, and dynamic heights.

This dataset contains CTD data collected on nine cruises of R/V WECOMA along the northwest Pacific coastline by Adriana Huyer of Oregon State University School of Oceanography as part of the Slope Undercurrent Study from 7/27/77 to 9/19/78. Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard High-Resolution CTD/STD (F022) format. The F022 format contains high-resolution data collected using CTD (conductivity-temperature-depth) and STD (salinity-temperature-depth) instruments. As they are lowered and raised in the oceans, these electronic devices provide nearly continuous profiles of temperature, salinity, and other parameters. Data values may be subject to averaging or filtering or obtained by interpolation and may be reported at depth intervals as fine as 1m. Cruise and instrument information, position, date, time and sampling interval are reported for each station. Environmental data at the time of the cast (meteorological and sea surface conditions) may also be reported. The data record comprises values of temperature, salinity or conductivity, density (computed sigma-t), and possibly dissolved oxygen or transmissivity at specified depth or pressure levels. Data may be reported at either equally or unequally spaced depth or pressure intervals. A text record is available for comments.

The CoOP RISE program collected CTD and water chemistry (macronutrients, chlorophyll) data during four cruises from 2004-2006 off the Oregon and Washington coast, centered on the Columbia River.

The Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) and other data were collected from Ship WECOMA cruise # W9308A. The data was collected over a period spanning from August 3, 1993 to August 7, 1993. Raw Data from 7 CTD casts using "SEABIRD" was submitted via FTP by Dr. Frederick Prahl of Oregon State University, Corvallis OR. The study was funded by NSF Grant # OCE 9203292.

Temperature profile and pressure data were collected using CTD from the R.V. WECOMA in the coastal waters of California from 20 April 1981 to 19 August 1982. Data were submitted by Oregon State University with support from the Coastal Ocean Dynamics Experiments. Data has been processed by NODC to the NODC standard High-Resolution CTD/STD (F022) format.

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.

Conductivity-Temperature and Depth data was submitted by Dr. A. Huyer of Oregon State University. The data were collected from NE Pacific (limit-180) from February 5, 1981 to April 14, 1981 on the R/V WECOMA cruise off the coast of California as part of Coastal Ocean Dynamics Experiment. Format and instrument descriptions are included with the Data Description Format. The data were binary and S. Stillwaugh has requested an ASCII copy. This reference number has been deleted. The replacement data has been processed and is available in NODC F022 data storage format.
