In the upper estuary of Yaquina Bay, Oregon, there is an annual
population explosion of Acartia tonsa, (Dana) a calanoid copepod,
during the months of July, August and September, followed by a rapid
decline to virtual extinction in November. The restricted estuarine
distribution affords an excellent opportunity to study the...
The life cycle of Callianassa californiensis Dana, 1854, was
studied in the tidal estuary, Yaquina Bay, Oregon. At this latitude
it is largely restricted to intertidal sandy mudflats under predominately
marine influence. Salinity and temperature appear to determine
its distribution to a greater extent than does sediment type.
Vertical movement...
A graphical method, based on a set of acid-base titrations, is
presented for the determination of the carbon dioxide speciation in
natural solutions. The application of this method, in conjunction
with measurements of the partial pressure of carbon dioxide with
which our solutions were in equilibrium permitted the calculation
of...
