Reports
The early life histories of anadromous herrings (Alosa species) in tidal freshwater are poorly understood. Knowledge of the ecology of anadromous herring larvae in tidal freshwater ecosystems is important in order to understand factors which cause population fluctuations, to mitigate potential adverse effects of modifications to these systems, and to facilitate restoration of populations. This investigation was undertaken to examine the distribution and relative abundance of larval river herring (alewife, Alosa pseudoharengus, and blueback herring, A. aestivalis) and their potential zooplankton prey in tidal freshwater of the Pamunkey River, Virginia, and to quantify growth of larvae between locations that may …

Reports
Deep-water dumpsite 106 is located over the continental slope and rise about 106 miles east of New Jersey (Fig. 1). From March 1986 to July 1992 approximately eight million wet metric tons of sewage sludge were disposed there per year (Robertson and Redford, 1992). Because of the potential impact of this dumping on deep-sea ecosystems, NOAA/NMFS contracted the Virginia Institute of Marine Science, College of William and Mary (VIMS) to make otter-trawl collections in and around DWD 106 in 1990 and 1991. Specific objectives of these collections were:
1. To sample the demersal megafauna, especially fishes;
2. To provide frozen …
