HYDROGRAPHIC DATA FROM OREGON WATERS, JUNE THROUGH DECEMBER 1961.

Abstract

This is the fourth data report of a study designed to determine the current patterns and water mass characteristics along the Oregon coast. The data available in each of the four reports are summarized in Table form. All data in this report were collected at stations occupied by Research Vessel ACONA (Burt and Pattullo, 1961). The sampling operation at each station generally consisted of one hydrographic cast to 800 or 1000 meters, a bathythermograph cast to 200 meters, a Clarke-Bumpus plankton tow to 150 meters, and the release of 12 drift bottles (Burt and Wyatt, 1964).
