Abstract
The results of analyses of hydrographic, nutrient, and biological data collected in coastal ocean waters off Central California in October 2006 aboard the R/V Wecoma (Hoke cruise) and R/V Point Sur (PaCOOS cruise) are presented in both tabular and graphical form. Along with all the data from the PaCOOS cruise, included in this report are also hydrographic data sampled over the last two days of the Hoke cruise at CalCOFI stations between Moss Landing, California, and Point Reyes, California, and along CalCOFI line 60. The PaCOOS cruise departed from Moss Landing and proceeded to Point Reyes following CalCOFI line 67 to station 90, thence to CalCOFI line 60/station 90, and finally along CalCOFI line 60. The cruise then returned to Moss Landing via the course from CalCOFI line 61.75/station 52.5 to CalCOFI Line 65.25/station 52.5, and thence to site H3. The Hoke cruise finished in Redwood City, California, after following a route from Moss Landing via the aforementioned H3/CalCOFI stations 52.5 and the inshore CalCOFI Line 60 stations from station 60. ADCP observations collected during both cruises, and marine mammal and biological observations taken during the PaCOOS cruise, are also included.
