Popis
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.
