Rainfall over coastal waters of the Pacific Northwest

Creator:: Reed, Ronald Keith
Abstract:: The objective of this study was to ascertain the magnitude and distribution of rainfall over coastal waters of the northwestern United States and to compare values with those at nearby land stations. Precipitation was measured with gauges at Totem, rainfall amounts were assessed from weather reports at lightships off the...

Paleo-oceanography of the subtropical southeastern Pacific during late Quaternary : a study of radiolaria, opal and quartz contents of deep-sea sediments

Creator:: Molina-Cruz, Adolfo
Abstract:: Micropaleontological data have been analyzed through mathematical and statistical procedures, in order to: (1) establish the distribution pattern of radiolarian assemblages in the surface sediments, (2) establish the relationship of these assemblages with oceanographic variables, (3) determine the faunal composition down-core with respect to the faunal surface pattern, and (4)...

Holocene sediments of the South Atlantic Ocean : the calcite compensation depth and concentrations of calcite, opal and quartz

Creator:: Ellis, David Burl
Abstract:: The concentrations of calcite, opal and quartz have been measured in 113 South Atlantic core tops. The remainder of the total sample has been calculated as clay. A method for the quantitative determination of opal has been developed. Calcite is the dominant factor in South Atlantic sediments; its pattern can...

Size distribution of chemically extracted quartz used to characterize fine-grained sediments

Creator:: Dauphin, J. P. (Joseph Paul)
Abstract:: Quartz is an ubiquitous component of marine sediments. Textural characteristics of this component reflect the dynamics of its transport and at the same time are indicative of its source. Quartz may be extracted from marine sediments by means of a sodium pyrosulfate fusion and hydrofluosilicic acid dissolution without significantly modifying...

Spatial structure of the physical and biological distributions across the Antarctic Polar Front in austral spring and summer

Creator:: Howard, Cidney
Abstract:: Mesoscale surveys to examine the relationship between the physical processes and biological response along the Antarctic Polar Front (PF) were conducted as part of the US JGOFS Southern Ocean Program during austral spring and summer 1997/98. Multiple crossings of the PF near 170° W, using a towed undulating instrument, provided...

Horizontal and vertical distribution of juvenile pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) in the southeastern Bering Sea

Creator:: McIntosh, Neal E.
Abstract:: Juvenile walleye pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) are one of the primary prey items for bird and mammal predators in the Bering Sea and support a large commercial fishery. An understanding of the environmental factors that determine the horizontal and vertical distribution of juvenile pollock is needed to estimate the effects that...
