Direct Measurements Of A Small Surface Eddy Of Northern Baja Califirnia, Joseph L. Reid Jr., Richard A. Schwartzlose, Daniel M. Brown Jan 1963

Direct Measurements Of A Small Surface Eddy Of Northern Baja Califirnia, Joseph L. Reid Jr., Richard A. Schwartzlose, Daniel M. Brown

Journal of Marine Research

An extensive study of surface currents off northern Baja California, using parachute drogues, has confirmed the inshore sweep of surface waters that has been a major feature of the geostrophic flow in this area. Calculations of geostrophic flow from concurrent density measurements are in excellent agreement with the drogue trajectories, and an extra hydrographic cast made at the center of an eddy that was indicated earlier by the drogue movements confirms the remarkable small-scale coherence of the density and velocity fields....

Seasonal Adjustment Of Economic Time Series And Multiple Regression, Michael C. Lovell Jan 1963

Seasonal Adjustment Of Economic Time Series And Multiple Regression, Michael C. Lovell

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

After demonstrating that any nontrivial technique for seasonally adjusting time series inevitably leads to certain distortions of the data, an effort is made to provide explicit motivation for the process of seasonal adjustment for purposes of appraising current economic conditions. Inherent advantages in terms of certain consistency requirements of a least square procedure for seasonal adjustment are pointed out. Problems encountered by the econometrician when seasonally adjusted time series are to be employed in regression analysis are also explored. The dummy variable technique for dealing with seasonal fluctuations is generalized to encompass a flexible pattern of seasonal movement. It is …

Evaluation Of An Automatic Technique For Counting Unicellular Organisms, Sayed Z. El-Sayed, Byung D. Lee Jan 1963

Evaluation Of An Automatic Technique For Counting Unicellular Organisms, Sayed Z. El-Sayed, Byung D. Lee

Journal of Marine Research

The Coulter counter, originally designed for high-speed counting of blood cells, was used in this study for quantitative estimation of several species of unicellular algae. Tests of the instrument's reliability and the reproducibility of its counts have given satisfactory results. The instrument is also well suited for use in the study of growth curves of unicellular algae. The instrument's limitations and sources of error are discussed.

Available Nitrogen And Phosphorus And The Biochemical Cycle In The Atlantic Off New England, Ralph F. Vaccaro Jan 1963

Available Nitrogen And Phosphorus And The Biochemical Cycle In The Atlantic Off New England, Ralph F. Vaccaro

Journal of Marine Research

The importance of ammonia as a sourc:e of available nitrogen for phytoplanktonic populations off New England has been evaluated for August and January 1962. During August, when only trace amounts of nitrate persist in the photic layer, ammonia appears to be the major source of available nitrogen. Therefore, meaningful estimates of the relative amounts of nitrogen and phosphorus being assimilated at such times require consideration of the nitrogen occurring as ammonia....

Snails On A Persian Hillside: Ecology-Prehistory-Gastronomy, Charles A. Reed Sep 1962

Snails On A Persian Hillside: Ecology-Prehistory-Gastronomy, Charles A. Reed

Postilla

The archeologist who is prehistorian may expect snail shells in his excavations. Sometimes, even though the site may be far from the nearest seas, such shells are marine and often were used as decorations, indicating the continuity of human vanity through the ages. Generally, the archeologist has had little interest in such shells as snails, or even in the generic and specific identifications furnished him by a malacologist; instead, the archeologist is interested in any cultural uses of the shells, and is intrigued by problems of their geographic origin and the possibility of tracing prehistoric trade routes. However, to the …

Long-Period Waves Over California's Continental Borderland Part I. Background Spectra, Frank E. Snodgrass, Walter H. Munk, Gaylord R. Miller Jan 1962

Long-Period Waves Over California's Continental Borderland Part I. Background Spectra, Frank E. Snodgrass, Walter H. Munk, Gaylord R. Miller

Journal of Marine Research

"Long" ocean waves, with frequencies between 0.2 and xo cycles per hour (cph), have been recorded simultaneously at La Jolla on the California coast and at San Clemente Island, about rno km seaward. The spectral power is greatest at the lowest frequencies but remains fairly uniform (about 5 x 10-2 cm2/cph) between 0.7 and 10 cph. Comparison of the Island and shore records shows that at the lowest frequencies (below 0.7 cph) the two records are consistently in phase and are highly coherent, as might be expected; above 0.7 cph they are out of phase, and the coherence is low....

The Life Cycle Of Sagitta Elegans In Arctic And Subarctic Seas, And The Modifying Effects Of Hydrographic Differences In The Environment, M. J. Dunbar Jan 1962

The Life Cycle Of Sagitta Elegans In Arctic And Subarctic Seas, And The Modifying Effects Of Hydrographic Differences In The Environment, M. J. Dunbar

Journal of Marine Research

Sagitta elegans arctica of the Canadian eastern Arctic waters has a life span of two years. Its breeding cycle is two-phase, or alternating, and the population consists of two distinct groups breeding in different years. The spawning period is long, extending from July into the winter, probably up to February. Winter spawning is taken to imply that the breeding behaviour is not timed to coincide with the maximum abundance of food, but that the cycle is determined by the growth limitations imposed by the low temperature....

Measurements Of The California Countercurrent At A Depth Of 250 Meters, Joseph L. Reid Jr. Jan 1962

Measurements Of The California Countercurrent At A Depth Of 250 Meters, Joseph L. Reid Jr.

Journal of Marine Research

Measurements of the flow at 250 m below the surface were made with parachute drogues laid out at 5-mile intervals on a line 125 nautical miles in length (true bearing 067°) extending landward from 35° 52.0'N, 124° 28.9'W to the 1000-fathom curve at 36° 36'N off Monterey, California. The drogues were followed for 48 hours. A northward flow, about 40 miles in width, with a maximum flow of 0.44 kt at the center, was seen near the coast.

Upper Devonian Pelecypods Of The New York Chemung Stage, A. Lee Mcalester Jan 1962

Upper Devonian Pelecypods Of The New York Chemung Stage, A. Lee Mcalester

Bulletin of the Peabody Museum of Natural History

The Upper Devonian rocks of New York and northern Pennsylvania provide perhaps the world's best opportunity for understanding the late Devonian pelecypods, because only in this region, among all well-known Devonian exposures, was deposition relatively continuous in the clastic marine facies which is characterized by prolific pelecypod faunas....

Long-Period Waves Over California's Continental Borderland Part Ii. Tsunamis, Gaylord R. Miller, Walter H. Munk, Frank E. Snodgrass Jan 1962

Long-Period Waves Over California's Continental Borderland Part Ii. Tsunamis, Gaylord R. Miller, Walter H. Munk, Frank E. Snodgrass

Journal of Marine Research

During the Chilean tsunami of 22 May 1960, precise readings of sea level were digitally recorded every 15 seconds by the La Jolla low-frequency wave instrument. The tsunami remained above background for a week. The record gave a good opportunity to measure the decay of tsunami energy as a function of frequency. Energy is reduced by 1/e about once each half day. The decay is somewhat more rapid at high frequen cies and at high energy densities. The total energy of the tsunami is estimated to be of the order of 3 x 1023 ergs.

Units For Specific Volume Of Sea Water, Martin J. Pollak Jan 1961

Units For Specific Volume Of Sea Water, Martin J. Pollak

Journal of Marine Research

Considerable confusion has developed in oceanographic literature concerning the appropriate units to be used in reporting specific volume and its ancillary parameters, specific-volume anomaly and thermosteric anomaly (specific-volume anomaly at in situ temperature and salinity and atmospheric pressure). The problem revolves around the question, should specific volume and its anomalies be given in terms of liters or cubic centimeters as the unit of volume....

The Isotherm Follower, E. C. Lafond Jan 1961

The Isotherm Follower, E. C. Lafond

Journal of Marine Research

The isotherm follower is an instrument that is capable of seeking out a given isotherm in the sea, locking on to the isotherm, following it up and down, and recording its depth with respect to time. This instrument has been employed singly and in triangular arrangements of three to provide the speed and direction of internal waves. It has proven to be valuable in determining the nature of vertical oscillations of sea temperature.

The Low Frequency Components Of The Spectrum Of Wind-Generated Waves, O. M. Phillips, E. J. Katz Jan 1961

The Low Frequency Components Of The Spectrum Of Wind-Generated Waves, O. M. Phillips, E. J. Katz

Journal of Marine Research

This paper is concerned with the dynamical processes involved in the growth of the lower frequency spectral components of wind-generated waves. Some calculations of Miles (1960) are extended, leading to the concept of a transition frequency for a given fetch as the frequency above which energy is supplied to the waves by the instability (or sheltering) mechanism and below which it is supplied by the resonance mechanism....
