Determination of food carbon assimilation in copepods

Creator:: O'Connors, Harold Blane Jr
Abstract:: A method for measuring food carbon assimilation in the copepod Calanus finmarchicus was developed, using the diatom Ditylum brightwelli as food. The amount of particulate food carbon ingested was determined as the difference between CHN analyzer analyses for particulate food carbon of pre- and post-grazed food suspensions. The fraction of...

Succinic dehydrogenase activity in mesopelagic oceanic fishes

Creator:: Karinen, John Franklin
Abstract:: The purposes of this investigation were to measure the relative levels of enzymatic and respiratory metabolism of some vertically migrating mesopelagic fishes collected from the ocean waters off Oregon and to modify and adapt an enzyme method for use as a measure of metabolic activity at sea with a minimum...

Predicting the longshore-variable coastal response to hurricanes

Creator:: Stockdon, Hilary F.
Abstract:: The longshore variability of the coastal response to hurricanes may be examined within the framework of a storm-impact scaling model that compares spatially-variable beach morphology and fluid forcing. The relative elevations of dune height and storm-induced water levels are used to define three impact regimes (swash, collision, and overwash), within...

Trace metals in phytoplankton from an area of coastal upwelling

Creator:: Pequegnat, John Eugene
Abstract:: Short-term changes in the distribution, surface to 10 meters, of phytoplankton-associated trace metals (Fe, Mn, Cr, Zn, Co, Ni, and Cu) were studied in the near-shore waters off Humboldt Bay, California, through the summer of 1971. The depth distribution of phytoplankton-associated trace metals was related to local hydrography. During periods...

Attenuation of compressional waves in the earth's mantle

Creator:: Sarmah, Suryya Kanta
Abstract:: Fourier transformed amplitudes of the compressional waves recorded between 9° and 91° (about 1000 to 10,000 km) epicentral distance from Gnome, Shoal, Haymaker,and Bilby underground nuclear explosions have been compared with Fourier transformed amplitudes of P waves measured at distances between 9.0 and 1 3. 0 km from the explosions....

Sedimentation, economic enrichment and evaluation of heavy mineral concentrations on the southern Oregon continental margin

Creator:: Bowman, Kenneth Charles Jr
Abstract:: Heavy minerals can contain potentially economic amounts of metals as both matrix and trace constituents. Such minerals appear as unconsolidated black sands on the continental shelf off southwest Oregon and along the Oregon coast. Two diverse energies are considered in this investigation. Environmental energy of the depositional regimen, Part I;...

Angle of emergence of seismic P waves and its variation with frequency

Creator:: Souders, Robert Hunter
Abstract:: The vertical and radial components of a seismic P wave can be decomposed by a Fourier transform into two sets of nonterminating sinusoidal waves with one set for each component. The tangent of the vertical transform divided by the radial transform gives by definition he apparent angle of emergence for...

Marine geophysical studies offshore: Newport, Oregon

Creator:: Whitcomb, James Hall
Abstract:: A marine geophysical study using shallow seismic reflection, gravity and magnetic methods of investigation was done for an offshore area near Newport, Oregon. The area is bounded by the latitudes 44°1O' to 44°50' N. and longitudes 124°07' to 124°30' W. The interpretation of observational data showed that the geology of...
