Lower Bay Zooplankton Monitoring Program : An Introduction To The Program And Results Of The Initial Survey Of March 1978, George C. Grant, John E. Olney
Lower Bay Zooplankton Monitoring Program : An Introduction To The Program And Results Of The Initial Survey Of March 1978, George C. Grant, John E. Olney
Reports
The zooplankton of Chesapeake Bay occurs as two definable, seasonal populations: a summer-fall community, peaking in August, and a winter-spring assemblage, peaking in February or March (Grant 1977; Jacobs 1978). A minimum of two surveys per year are therefore required for long-term assessment of these communities: March and August have been selected as sampling months. Adequate assessment of meroplankton, particularly fish eggs and larvae and the larvae of decapod crustaceans, requires sampling over the principal reproductive period of June through August (Goy 1976; Olney 1978). Surveys for these components only are to be conducted in June and July, in addition …

The Marine Algae Of Virginia, Harold J. Humm
The Marine Algae Of Virginia, Harold J. Humm
VIMS Books and Book Chapters
Starting with initial collections near Yorktown back in 1946, Humm over the years gathered information on algae appearing all seasons of the year from bays, marshes, reefs, wrecks and a variety of substrates from the Eastern Shore, Chesapeake Bay and tidewater areas.
Includes a systematic list of species, keys, descriptions, drawings and images of specimens.

The Role Of Filter-Feeding Organisms In Concentration Of Suspended Solids Containing Kepone Into Bottom Deposits, Dexter S. Haven, Reinaldo Morales-Alamo
The Role Of Filter-Feeding Organisms In Concentration Of Suspended Solids Containing Kepone Into Bottom Deposits, Dexter S. Haven, Reinaldo Morales-Alamo
Reports
Filter-feeding marine animals such as molluscs, tunicates and barnacles filter particles as small as 1 micron from suspension during their feeding process and void them as fecal pellets. These settle at much faster rates than their component particles. Feces or pseudofeces which settle are termed biodeposits. Eighty-two to 93 percent by volume of the particles in the biodeposits of several species of molluscs are smaller than 4 microns; the range in size of those particles is about 1 to 10 microns (Haven and Morales-Alamo, 1973).

Biological Description Of Old Plantation Flats Deep Trough, A Proposed Dredged Material Disposal Site: Interim Report, W. A. Van Engle, J. V. Merriner, F. J. Wojcik
Reports
The Old Plantation Trough site biological community was surveyed August 29-30, 1978. Bottom profiles were completed September 9, 1978. An Interim Report containing the procedures, list of stations, hydrographic data, bottom profiles, and species list was prepared and filed October 3, 1978.
This report contains tables of numbers and weights of fish and invertebrates collected during the August 1978 survey and thus concludes the report on the Summer Survey.
An Environmental Assessment Of The Summer Plankton In The Vicinity Of The C.P. Crane Generating Station, George C. Grant, Stephen P. Berkowitz
An Environmental Assessment Of The Summer Plankton In The Vicinity Of The C.P. Crane Generating Station, George C. Grant, Stephen P. Berkowitz
Reports
A preliminary survey of summer plankton in ·waters surrounding the C. P. Crane generating station in Bengies, Maryland, revealed several possible effects of plant operation. These perturbations were separated into apparent small-scale and large-scale effects:
Small-scale effects were limited to the immediate discharge region of Saltpeter Creek and included (1) occasional elevation of temperatures at the surface (in August) to above the lethal limit for most zooplankton and sufficiently high to inhibit photosynthesis, (2) a decrease in chlorophyll-a, seen in July and August, (3) a sharp decrease in productivity, also in July and August, and (4) absence of a common …
An Analysis Of Phytoplankton, Microzooplankton And Mesozooplankton Populations In The Vicinity Of The C. P. Crane Generating Station During The Spring Months Of 1979, George C. Grant, Stephen P. Berkowitz
An Analysis Of Phytoplankton, Microzooplankton And Mesozooplankton Populations In The Vicinity Of The C. P. Crane Generating Station During The Spring Months Of 1979, George C. Grant, Stephen P. Berkowitz
Reports
Sampling of spring 1979 plankton populations at the C.P. Crane site was conducted at 15 stations during six sampling periods for phytoplankton, at 5 stations monthly from March to June for microzooplankton and monthly at 14 stations for mesozooplankton. Ancillary physical data were collected at all the above stations, while nutrients were measured twice in April.

Estuarine Response To Nutrient Enrichment, A Counterpart Of Eutrophication : A Bibliography, K. L. Webb, D. M. Hayward, J. M. Baker, B. Murray
Estuarine Response To Nutrient Enrichment, A Counterpart Of Eutrophication : A Bibliography, K. L. Webb, D. M. Hayward, J. M. Baker, B. Murray
Reports
This work is a result of our efforts to compile the literature related to the results of nutrient enrichment of estuaries. It consists of two related publications, a bibliography and an annotated bibliography; both works are accompanied by an index which applies to either bibliography. An attempt has been made to include a few key papers related to various processes, eg nutrient uptake by phytoplankton, which influence or participate in the response process.
