Tectonics of the East Pacific Rise, 5⁰ to 12⁰S

Creator:: Rea, David K.
Abstract:: The portion of the East Pacific Rise (EPR) between 5° and 12°S can be subdivided into three areas by fracture zones that offset the rise axis at about 6.5°S and 9°S. In all three regions, the spreading axis of the EPR is defined by a topographic block 300 to 350...

Morphology, shallow structure, and evolution of the Peruvian continental margin, 6⁰ to 18⁰ S

Creator:: Masias Echegaray, Juan Antonio
Abstract:: Detailed bathymetric survey data were collected along the Peruvian continental margin and were compiled by the author and other investigators to construct a new bathymetric map for the area between 6° to 18°S latitude. Based on this map and individual bathymetric profiles, the continental shelf topography is essentially flat. Four...

Deformation in the Peru Trench, 6⁰-10⁰S

Creator:: Prince, Roger Allan
Abstract:: Detailed surveys of several segments of the Peru Trench show that the region between 6° to 10⁰ S is an area of recent deformation. Seismic reflection records across the axis of the trench show faulting, uplift, and tilting of the sedimentary fill and the acoustic basement. Uplift of the acoustic...

Sea surface water motion off Chile latitudes18°S-40°S, revealed from satellite images ofchlorophyll and temperature distribution

Creator:: Espinoza, Felix R.
Abstract:: The mesoscale sea-surface circulation pattern within 400 km off Chile and between 18°S and 40°S latitude is described using chlorophyll and temperature images from the Coastal Zone Color Scanner NIMBUS-7 satellite. The data base is a set of four mosaics developed from band-3 (550 nm) images taken on June 4...

Recent tropical storm climatology in the eastern tropical Pacific Ocean and some applications

Creator:: Short, Kent S.
Abstract:: Reliable data for tropical storm occurrences in the northern portion of the eastern Tropical Pacific did not become available until 1966. Considering the years 1966-75, sizeable interannual variations in storm frequency are evident. Six climatological factors are investigated in an attempt to explain this interannual variation. These are: (1) the...

Measurements of turbulent velocities and an examination of their effects on mixing and suspension of particulate matter

Creator:: Wasowski, Stanley Francis
Abstract:: An experiment was conducted in which a three component drag probe was used to measure the three directional components of turbulent velocity. While velocity measurements were being made, water samples were taken and analyzed for salinity and suspended particulate matter. Three dimensional energy spectra were computed from the velocity records...

The effects of PCB exposure on the behavior of the shore crab Hemigrapsus oregonensis

Creator:: Pearson, Walter H.
Abstract:: The behavior of the shore crab Hemigrapsus oregonensis was assessed with and without exposure to polychlorinated biphenyls (Aroclor 1260). After describing the crab's behavioral repertoire, activity budgets were developed from observations of the time crabs spent in 20 categories of shelter use, posture, and activity while held in habitat replicas...
