Observations of temperature and pressure in the upper 100 m were taken with a towed thermistor chain in January 1980 north of Hawaii. The observations were taken as a part of a cooperative investigation of the North Pacific subtropical front entitled FRONTS-80. The chain was towed on four occasions over...
The capacity of a vibrating solid to convert its mechanical energy of vibration into heat is called internal friction. Its most common manifestation is the damping effect which causes loss in vibration amplitude of a freely vibrating solid. The damping is a result of the anelastic behaviour of materials. This...
No-till pasture renovation can increase the quality and forage yield of underproductive pastures. Decreased erosion, lower costs, and less lost grazing time are advantages of no-till renovation compared to conventional renovation. Unwanted vegetation is first controlled with herbicides to decrease competition for introduced orchardgrass. Two field trials were conducted using...
Reviews fisheries legislation, hatchery program progress, dangers to salmon. Complains about seals and sea lion predation on salmon. Reviews major fishing streams of the time. Fiscal and statistical reports included.

The Arctic Internal Wave Experiment (AIWEX) was designed to study the internal wave and microstructure fields in the Beaufort Sea in the early spring. A major goal of the experiment was to verify the hypothesis that the internal wave and microstructure fields beneath the ice are far less energetic than...
