Ocean circulation in the Northeast Pacific Ocean is simulated using a high-resolution primitive equation numerical model with realistic bottom topography. The goal is to explain better the details of observed interannual variability of the circulation in the Gulf of Alaska. Our numerical model suggests that there is no seasonal shift in the Alaska gyre and that the interannual variability. reported earlier, is most likely the result of embedded mesoscale eddies in the dynamic topography. Such eddies have been observed in hydrographic. satellite-tracked drifters and altimeter data from the Gulf of Alaska.

Ocean circulation in the Gulf of Alaska is remarkably constant throughout the year despite of being forced by one of the largest seasonal wind stresses in the world. To explain the small seasonal changes in the transport of Alaska Stream. a set of numerical models is employed. First a diagnostic approach is applied to reproduce circulation from the observed density structure. The results reveals the very small seasonal changes in the Alaska Stream transport. Next a series of the prognostic models is used: a barotropic model. a flat bottom baroclinic model, and baroclinic model with topography. These models reveal the influence of topography and baroclinicity on the ocean's response to the seasonal wind forcing. The intercomparisons of the various model results suggest that the seasonal response of the baroclinic ocean is primary barotropic and the resultant barotropic circulation is weakened by the scattering effect of the bottom topography.

원유의 발견과 함께 북극의 개발이 활발해저왔고, 지역의 특수한 환경적인 요건으로 인해 시설물의 개발, 설치, 이동, 운용에 많은 어려움을 갖고 있다. 특히 빙산에 의한 극지 해안가의 해저면은 파이고, 손상되고, 변형된다. 북 알라스카의 해저면을 고르지 못하고, 불규칙하게 파이고, 손상된 형태를 보여주고, 특히 빙산의 활동이 활발한 지역과 시기에는 그 손상이 더욱 심하고, 자주 일어난다. 빙산에 의한 해저면의 홈은 빙산 해저 끝이 해저면에 접촉하여 해저 바닥을 파 나갈때 일어나는 현상이다. 빙산의 운동에너지는 해저면을 파 나가는 에너지로 변형되고, 그 힘이 평형하게 될 때까지 빙산의 운동은 계속된다. 빙산에 의한 해저면 손상은 극지 해안가의 해저시설물의 설계, 설치, 운용에 중대한 영향을 끼친다. 그러므로, 해저면 손상의 데이타 분석은 해안의 개발과 시설물의 설치에 큰 도움이 된다. 이 논문에서는 8년간에 걸친 약 십만개가 넘는 데이타를 토대로 알라스카 뷰오포트 해안가의 빙산에 의한 해저면 손상의 통계학적인 연구결과를 보여준다. 또한 각 변수의 최대치와 수심에 따른 변수의 최대 경계선을 추정하였고, 변수들의 상호관계를 연구하였다.

To delineate water properties and current patterns in the spawning area of walleye pollock, hydrographic cast and current meter data collected in Strait, Gulf of alaska, were analysed, three water masses are identified in Shelikof Strait. A small amount of cold and dilute water ($<{\;}3^{\circ}C{\;}and{\;}<{\;}31.5\textperthousand$) originates from the lower Cook Inlet and flows southwestward close to the Alaska Peninsula coast. One branch of alaska coastal Current which enters the strait from the northeast comprises the main body of the upper and middle layers of the strait, and flows toward the southwest. Estimation of geostrophic baroclinic currents reveals that comparatively fast flow exists in the surface over the deepest portion of the strait, and most water exits through the southwestern entrance between Semidi and chirikof Is. On the other hand, a relatively slow-moving warm and saline ($>{\;}5^{circ}C{\;}and{\;}>{\;}32\textperthousand$) of the southwestern entrance flows northeasterly, and occupies the bottom layer in Shelikof Strait.

Results comparing the scale and otolith ages for walleye pollock from the Donut Hole of the Bering Sea showed a significant discrepancy for fish older than 8 years old. For walleye pollock from the Shelikof Strait of the Gulf of Alaska, comparison between ages determined from the scale and otolith readings indicated that there were no differences for younger age groups, but for the ages 6 and older, discrepancies squeezed in somewhat amid the same age groups.
