1 San Francisco Bay Properties
A Characterization of the Waters inside the Bay For OC3570 – Operational Oceanography Prof. C. Collins, Prof. P. Guest Presented by LT Jonathan D. Morrison, USN

2 Motivation Personal Interest Professional Interest Coastal research
Seasonal and long-term trends Spatial variation Our impact What Bay can provide

3 Expectations Properties of interest Short time-scale
Temperature Salinity Fluorescence Transmissivity Short time-scale Latitudinal variations

4 Method 21 Stations 24-hour period CTD Casts to bottom Data processing
Each measured twice 24-hour period Two tidal periods Same point on tidal curve CTD Casts to bottom 5 ~ 90m Data processing MATLAB SURFER 8
