Presentation Transcript

  1. A Time-Series Assessment of Sediment Plumes and Phytoplankton Blooms in the Santa Barbara Channel, California Siegel, Washburn, Warrick, Toole, Sorensen, Polyakov, Otero, Neumann, Mertes, Kostadinov, Guillocheau, Fernamburg, Brzezinski, Anderson Institute for Computational Earth System Science University of California, Santa Barbara In collaboration with the Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary

  2. Plumes & Blooms Program • Understand, predict & utilize changes in ocean color in the Santa Barbara Channel • Monthly day cruises (7 stations) • Field observations started in 1996 (future = ??) • Measurements • CTD/optics profiles (LwN(l), a(l), b(l), bbb(l), etc.) • Nutrients, chlorophyll, HPLC pigments, pSi, etc. • Satellite acquisition & analysis

  3. PnB Sampling Program Cross-channel SST (Station 1 off Campus Point) Station 4 Profile (channel center)

  4. Multivariate Analysis (EOF) Modes of variability • Upwelling • Mature bloom • Plumes • Nearshore processes
