This is not very good, but it might lead you to a better source.  Try Richard
Thomson's publisher, Gordon Soules, books_at_gordonsoules.com  (604 922 6588). 
Thomson's "Oceanography of the BC Coast" does what you want, but for the wrong
ocean.

I have a copy of Bascom's book, which I would loan to you for a while, if you
like.
