AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF
WADE ALLAN HODGES for the MASTER
Differences in the chemical composition of calcified skeletal structures (e.g. shells, otoliths) have proven useful for reconstructing the environmental history of many marine species. However, the extent to which ambient environmental conditions can be inferred from the elemental signatures within the vertebrae of elasmobranchs (sharks, skates, rays) has not been...
A large-scale west coast shelf experiment called SuperCODE
was conducted off Oregon and California between February 1981
and April 1984. Current and temperature measurements were made
from subsurface arrays off Coos Bay (43°N), Crescent City
(42°N), Eureka (41°N), Half Moon Bay (37.5°N) and Purisima
Point (34.70), between February 1981 and...
