Natural populations of phytoplankton from Yaquina Bay, Oregon,
were incubated in large polyethelene bags in- situ, with and without
the natural assemblage of zooplankton. Samples were taken daily for
two weeks in April, 1974. The biomass of phytoplankton in the bag
without grazers reached values two to three times the...
Observations were made of salinity, temperature, nitrate +
nitrite, phosphate, silicate, total available nitrogen, and chlorophyll
a in nine areas of the Alaskan Inside Passage during April of 1971.
In general all properties indicated the water to be well mixed throughout
this area. The conservative properties were particularly uniform.

Studies on elemental and energy transfer in lower trophic levels in
the marine environment were initiated in July 1962 after receipt of AEC
contract AT(45-1)1751. It should be pointed out that this report covers
only a six-month period, because for bookkeeping purposes the contract
was made retroactive to 1 April...

Investigation was made into the influence of changing light
intensity on the organic and elemental composition of two species of
marine diatoms, Ditylum brightwellii and Skeletonema costatum.
Analysis was made of the relative changes in soluble and insoluble
carbohydrate; polar, non-polar, and total lipid; amino acids; proteins;
and total carbon,...
