Conductivity‐temperature‐depth surveys during 1988 encountered strong baroclinic jets that were evident in acoustic Doppler current profiler and hydrographic data. During June and July 1988 a filament with high surface nitrate, high chlorophyll, abundant populations of neritic centric diatoms, and higher rates of primary production was evident perpendicular to the coast...
Los chiles (o pimientos o ajíes) tal vez existen en
una variedad más grande de tamaños, formas, colores
y sabores que cualquiera otra hortaliza. Los más populares son
los pimientos dulces, los tipos plátano y los tipos picantes.
The present work is an attempt to correlate information collected in the northern part of Chile with the anchoveta distribution and its fluctuation. This information was collected over a three year period (November 1967 to November 1970) by the Instituto de Fomento Pesquero, Chile (IFOP). The first and second part...

The reading of world literature, literary works from cultures other than one’s own, offers
an effective means of creating greater awareness and sensitivity towards others. Research
on the subject makes it clear that world literature can help lay the groundwork for a sense
of world citizenship in students. To what...
Partly laminated sediments on the upper continental
slope (200-600 m) off central Peru contain a diverse assemblage
of fish debris, diatoms, and the remains of a variety
of other nektonic, planktic, and benthic organisms. Approximately
97 percent of the fish scales recovered from
the best preserved cores come from the...
Two methods of estimating surface velocity vectors from advanced very high resolution radiometer (AVHRR) data were applied to the same set of images and the results were compared with in situ and altimeter measurements. The first method used and automated feature –tracking algorithm and the second method used an inversion...
Coastal upwelling in the northern California Current
varies seasonally, with downwelling in winter and upwelling
in summer, resulting in pronounced variability in
hydrography, nutrients, phytoplankton biomass, and species
composition. Winter was characterized by moderate concentrations
of nitrate and silicate (averages of 10 and 18 μM,
respectively) and low concentrations of...
Altar (31º 29’ S, 70º 28’ W) is a large porphyry Cu-(Au-Mo) deposit with associated
epithermal Au-(Ag-Cu) veins located in the Cordillera Principal of SW San Juan Province
(Argentina). Altar is a complex magmatic-hydrothermal system formed from several
magmatic and hydrothermal pulses during the middle-late Miocene. New LA-ICPMS U-Pb
ages...
A drifter equipped with bio-optical sensors and an automated water sampler was deployed in the California Current as part of the coastal transition zone program to study the biological, chemical, and physical dynamics of the meandering filaments. During deployments in 1987 and 1988, measurements were made of fluorescence, downwelling irradiance,...

In summer 1988, we made repeated mesoscale surveys of a grid extending 200 km offshore between
37°N and 39°N in the coastal transition zone off northern California, obtaining continuous acoustic
Doppler current profiler data and conductivity-temperature-depth data at standard stations 25 km apart
on alongshore sections 40 km apart. All...
This thesis investigates the behavior of major inorganic nutrients (P, N, Si), trace metals (Mn, Fe), and alkaline-earth metals (Ba) within Tillamook Bay over seasonal cycles and under a range of river discharge conditions from October 1997 through December 1999. Located in the Pacific Northwest region, Tillamook Bay is an...
Water quality impacts both human and ecosystem health. Many pharmaceuticals and personal care products are considered contaminants of emerging concern (CEC) due to their bioactive properties. Among these, metformin—the most commonly prescribed drug for treatment of type 2 diabetes—has been reported at high concentrations (μg L⁻¹) in stream, lake, and...
Sexual and gender minority (SGM) samples report elevated rates of substance use and substance use disorder compared to their heterosexual and cisgender counterparts across a wide variety of substances (Connolly & Gilchrist, 2020; Krueger et al., 2020; Rice et al., 2019), in part due to the experience of minority stress....
In 1981, illegal processing of rapeseed oil by a Spanish oil refinery resulted in the mass foodborne illness epidemic known as Toxic Oil Syndrome (TOS). The toxic oil associated with this epidemic was sold in neighborhood markets and by itinerant salesmen as inexpensive olive oil. Ingestion of the toxic oil...
