Watches
CMOP has developed web-based “watches” designed to track specific river-to-shelf system features including estuarine hypoxia and estuarine turbidity maxima.

Ocean Anomalies Watch
The Ocean Anomalies Watch tracks ocean temperature and biogeochemical signals in the Columbia River estuary and river and ocean forcings. The data is collected from the SATURN observation network in the estuary and from external sources. The watch includes automated near real-time and archival graphical representations of prevailing conditions and event-driven annotations of anomalies impacting the estuary.View the Ocean Anomalies Watch
Oxygen Watch
The Oxygen Watch tracks seasonal oxygen levels in the Columbia River estuary and Pacific Ocean continental shelf. The data is collected from the SATURN observation network in the estuary and glider deployments off the Washington coast. The watch includes automated near real-time and archival graphical representations of prevailing conditions and event-driven annotations on an “oxygen blog”.View the Oxygen Watch
Estuarine Turbidity Maxima Watch
The Estuarine Turbidity Maxima (ETM) Watch characterizes timing, duration and intensity of observed ETMs and empirically predicts ETM timing in support of field campaigns and planned adaptive sampling strategies.View the ETM Watch
