High-Resolution Carbonate System Dynamics of Netarts Bay, OR From 2014 to 2019
Netarts Bay is a shallow, temperate, tidal lagoon located on the northern coast of Oregon and the site of the Whiskey Creek Shellfish Hatchery (WCSH). Data collected with an autonomous continuous flow-through system installed at WCSH capable of high-resolution (1 Hz) partial pressure of aqueous CO 2...

Netarts Bay is a shallow, temperate, tidal lagoon located on the northern coast of Oregon and the site of the Whiskey Creek Shellfish Hatchery (WCSH). Data collected with an autonomous continuous flow-through system installed at WCSH capable of high-resolution (1 Hz) partial pressure of aqueous CO 2 (pCO 2 ) and hourly total dissolved inorganic carbon (TCO 2 ) measurements, with combined measurement uncertainties of < 2.0% and 0.5%, respectively, is analyzed over the 2014–2019 interval. Summer upwelling, wintertime downwelling, and in situ bay biogeochemistry represent significant modes of the observed variability in carbonate system dynamics. Summer upwelling is associated with large amplitude diel pCO 2 variability, elevated TCO 2 and alkalinity, but weak variability in salinity. Wintertime downwelling is associated with bay freshening by both local and remote sources, a strong tidal signature in salinity, TCO 2 , and alkalinity, with diel pCO 2 variability much less amplified when compared to summer. Further, analysis of alkalinity-salinity relationships suggests multiple water masses inhabiting the bay during 1 year: mixing of end-members associated with direct precipitation, coastal rivers, southward displacement of the Columbia River plume, California Current surface and deep upwelled waters.
