We present observations from deployments of a microstructure turbulence instrument
(the Towed Microstructure and Auxiliary Sensor Instrument) aboard a pumping profiling
vehicle (the Lamont Pumping SeaSoar) towed behind a research vessel at the New
England shelf break front in August 2002. From these we determined coincident fine-scale
vertical eddy diffusivity...
Black Brant (Branta bernicla nigricans) had two different seasonal patterns of occurrence at Yaquina Estuary. At embayment areas with eelgrass (Zostera marina), Brant typically arrived between October 22 and November 4, Brant numbers progressively climbed in November, Brant abundance in December-January was relatively constant, and Brant numbers often fluctuated greatly...
The purpose of this publication is to introduce you to the world of forest
protection by: (1) providing you with broad definitions of the five
principal groups of destructive agents; and (2) presenting some information on the impacts of these groups on the forests of Oregon.

By mapping the three-dimensional density field while simultaneously tracking a subsurface, isopycnal float, direct observations of upwelling along a shelfbreak front were made on the southern flank of Georges Bank. The thermohaline and bio-optical fields were mapped using a towed undulating vehicle, and horizontal velocity was measured with a shipboard...
