Book Description
Surveys off the Washington-Oregon coast by the Department of Oceanography, University of Washington, from 1961 through 1963 have provided salinity data for describing the Columbia River effluent in the Northeast Pacific Ocean. The data also have provided insight into the interactions between the observed distributions and the meteorological systems. Each salinity distribution is categorized into one of four distinct seasonal patterns, mainly influenced by river discharge and winds. The salinity distributions delineate the extent of the influence of the Columbia River effluent in the Northeast Pacific Ocean both horizontally with distance and vertically with depth. Also shown and discussed are the mean wind patterns for the area during this time period, their influence on the river out-flow and their role in the transport of the dilute surface waters. A method is described for the prediction of the salinity distribution of the effluent from surface wind data. (Author).
