El Niño-fueled Kelvin waves may amplify king tides on Oregon Coast

A convergence of forces could lead to extraordinary king tides on Oregon's coast this winter. Kelvin waves are rolling in along the West Coast, pushing sea levels higher just as the first king tides of the season arrive Nov. 23-27. The most dramatic effects of Kelvin waves so far have been farther south, along the coasts of Central America, Mexico and California. One October Kelvin wave made it as far north as San Francisco, according to North Carolina State University scientist Dillon Amaya . Amaya doubted the waves will pose a substantial risk to Oregon right now, but said the region could still see some effects. Forecasts from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration predict higher-than-normal sea levels. Kelvin waves can raise sea levels by up to a foot, with the effects lasting for days or even weeks. Pair that with Oregon's king tides, which draw huge crowds of spectators who want to catch a glimpse of the impressive surf crashing on the rocky shore, and you have a recipe for an incredible coastal show. But the same conditions can make beaches, jetties and cliff edges dangerous. What are Kelvin waves? Kelvin waves are slow-moving subsurface waves that affect coastal

Difficult hurdles stand before Central Oregon resort proposal | Opinion

On Oct. 9, the Oregon Land Use Board of Appeals released the latest in a series of decisions on the validity of Deschutes County’s approval of the Thornburgh Resort proposal, which has been pending since before 2006. The decision is 130 pages long and involved multiple issues and parties that cannot adequately be summarized in limited space. So, we confine ourselves to the reasons for LUBA’s remand, as well as a discussion of the role of water and Native American treaty rights in land use decision making today.
