The analysis and recommended design of a high-resolution digital data acquisition system for the in situ measurement of various physical and chemical parameters of sea water

Creator:: Albin, Arthur Grayson
Abstract:: The lack of availability of a single, complete paper on the analysis of a digital data acquisition system for in situ oceanographic measurements brought about the present work. In order to compile an accurate technical paper on such a complex system, it was necessary to design, construct, and calibrate a...

The abundance, distribution, and ecology of the Tanner crab, Chionoecetes tanneri Rathbun, on the southern Oregon continental slope

Creator:: Oliver, Brian Lee
Abstract:: Eleven cruises were conducted on the Oregon continental slope from April 1973 to March 1975 to assess the biology and ecology of the Tanner crab, Chionoecetes tanneri Rathbun. Bathymetric and seasonal analysis of the distribution of adult Tanner crabs west of Coos Bay, Oregon, revealed no segregation of sexes or...

Precise north-south oceanographic transect in the Pacific Ocean

Creator:: Cabrera-Muro, Homero
Abstract:: The Geochemical Ocean Sections Study (GEOSECS) program has carried out an intensive study of physical and chemical parameters in the Pacific and Atlantic Ocean. As a result, an enormous collection of high quality data has been amassed for these two oceans. To analyze the Pacific data, fourteen stations extending from...

Extraction of zinc from sea water

Creator:: Buffo, Lynn Karen
Abstract:: A liquid-extraction procedure for the concentration of zinc in sea water was developed. The metal ion in sea water was chelated with sodium diethyldithiocarbamate and extracted into an organic solvent, methylisobutylketone, at the normal pH of sea water. A back-extraction into HCl followed, providing a concentration of 30X for the...

Structure of the Panama Basin from marine gravity data

Creator:: Barday, Robert James
Abstract:: In order to quantitatively examine the crustal structure of the Panama Basin without the benefit of local seismic refraction data, the following assumptions were made: (1) No significant lateral changes in density take place below a depth of 50 km. (2) The densities of the crustal layers are those of...

The spectral backscattering properties of marine particles

Creator:: Whitmire, Amanda L.
Abstract:: The inherent and apparent optical properties of different ocean regimes are the basis for all optical remote sensing of the ocean. Ecological information derived from remote sensors therefore relies on having a detailed understanding of how particulate backscattering and absorption contribute to the bulk optical signal. The absorption characteristics of...

Antarctic intermediate water in the South Pacific Ocean

Creator:: Johnson, Ron (Ronald E.)
Abstract:: The distribution of Antarctic Intermediate Water in the South Pacific has been examined using a model of horizontal advection, along the Sigma-t surface 27.10, with three point vertical mixing. The core of the Antarctic Intermediate Water mass was traced from the Antarctic Convergence northward. The charts used to describe the...

Modeling studies of ocean circulation using inverse methods and bifurcation theory

Creator:: Vernieres, Guillaume
Abstract:: We present a study of the ocean circulation using state of the art numerical and data assimilation techniques. The second chapter of the thesis presents the development and application of generalized inversion to a simple dynamical model of Lake Kinneret. The intent was to develop the necessary tools to implement...

Growth response of a marine phytoplankton Coccolithus huxleyi to various chemical forms of cobalt

Creator:: Longaker, Harold L.
Abstract:: The results of a preliminary experiment suggested that a complexed form of cobalt was more efficacious in promoting growth of a marine phytoplankton than ionic cobalt. The phytoplankton used in this experiment was Coccolithus huxleyi, a vitamin B₁₂ producer, and the cobalt complex was cobalt (II)- ethylenediaminetetracetic acid [Co(II)- EDTA]....
