This book was released on 1984 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sea surface temperature (SST) since March 1, 1971 at Granite Canyon, just north of Pt. Sur, California, are examined for interannual variability. Each of four El Nino episodes occurring over the past 13 years can be easily detected in the raw data. Annual mean temperatures are significantly higher during the El Nino years. The 1982-83 El Nino episode was more intense than the previous episodes; temperatures were as much as 5C above normal during the episode and it lasted about 20 months. Major abrupt decreases in SST were frequently observed during the spring. These events are identified as the spring transition to coastal upwelling and appear to be most intense following El Nino episodes. Empirical Orthogonal Function analysis of the data indicates that maximum variability in SST's occurs between October and February and that it coincides with the four El Nino episodes occurring over the past 13 years.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This long-anticipated reference and sourcebook for CaliforniaÕs remarkable ecological abundance provides an integrated assessment of each major ecosystem typeÑits distribution, structure, function, and management. A comprehensive synthesis of our knowledge about this biologically diverse state, Ecosystems of California covers the state from oceans to mountaintops using multiple lenses: past and present, flora and fauna, aquatic and terrestrial, natural and managed. Each chapter evaluates natural processes for a specific ecosystem, describes drivers of change, and discusses how that ecosystem may be altered in the future. This book also explores the drivers of CaliforniaÕs ecological patterns and the history of the stateÕs various ecosystems, outlining how the challenges of climate change and invasive species and opportunities for regulation and stewardship could potentially affect the stateÕs ecosystems. The text explicitly incorporates both human impacts and conservation and restoration efforts and shows how ecosystems support human well-being. Edited by two esteemed ecosystem ecologists and with overviews by leading experts on each ecosystem, this definitive work will be indispensable for natural resource management and conservation professionals as well as for undergraduate or graduate students of CaliforniaÕs environment and curious naturalists.

This book was released on 1983 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the active coastal upwelling regime off Pt. Sur, there was an equatorward surface jet 15 to 40km offshore, and a weaker poleward undercurrent near the continental slope. Based on tendency analyses of a set of quasi-synoptic hydrographic surveys, both upwelling and mixing were important in lowering sea-surface temperature (SST). The coastal bathymetry influenced the in situ property distributions around Pt. Sur, and the satellite-derived SST patterns. Based on the satellite data, the upwelling frontal boundary meandered with space and time scales of about 80km (alongshore) and 30 to 40 days, respectively. Over several months, the major upwelling frontal boundary gradually moves the order of 50km offshore. The major abrupt decreases in coastal SST (of order 3C) in certain years were attributed to the spring transition to coastal upwelling. The four E1 Nino episodes of the past 12 years were evident in coastal SST. E1 Nino events may initiate, and apparently strengthen, the spring transitions. Based on daily surface and subsurface temperature, correlation time scales ranged from several days (subsurface) to almost ten days (surface).
