TRACE METAL CYCLING IN TROPICAL-SUBTROPICAL ESTUARIES DOMINATED BY THE SEAGRASS THALASSIA TESTUDINUM

Fate of nuclides in natural water systems. Annual progress report, October 1, 1976--September 30, 1977. [Natural /sup 234/Th and /sup 210/Po tracer studies of trace metal cycling in coastal waters]

Technical Report Turekian, K. K.

Directly or indirectly man's spewing of his wastes into the coastal zone is coupled to his use of energy. The act of supplying energy for his ongoing activities is capable also of supplying some of the potentially most deleterious components to the coastal zone. Results are reported from studies of the pattern of physical and biological activity in the estuary which controls the distribution and possible neutralization of potential pollutants. Sediment chronologies applicable to aqueous repositories were established in order to identify the effects due to man and to assess the changing intensity of his activities over time.

Ecological study of the effects of power plants on benthic macroplant microcosms in subtropical and tropical estuaries. Progress report, 1976--1977. [Effects of heavy metals and thermal effluents from fossil-fuel and nuclear power plants on benthic seagrass community]

Technical Report Thorhaug, A

The effect of two fossil fuel and two nuclear plants on a near-shore seagrass community was studied in South Biscayne Bay, Dade County, Florida, over the past four years. The focus of the study was to delineate the effects that a series of various pollutants have had on the dominant system of seagrass Thalassia testudinum and its related community. Data are included from studies on the effects of heavy metals, waste heat, and dredging activities, with emphasis on thermal pollution. In order to separate the perturbation of the specific pollutant from the natural fluctuations of the system, efforts were mademore »« less
Pollutant transport and sediment dispersal in the Washington--Oregon coastal zone. Report of progress, October 1976--September 1977

Technical Report Hickey, B ; Smith, J D

Results are summarized from studies on large-scale coastal circulation, studies in the benthic boundary layers, an analysis of coastal tidal currents, and direct studies of the sediment transport process. With respect to the large-scale circulation problem, alongshore coherence scales among coastal currents from Vancouver Island to mid-Oregon have been investigated. A model for shelf circulation has been modified with a time-varying source of light water to simulate the effect of the Columbia River effluent. Available data has been used to illustrate the value and the limitations of the model for predictions of density and current structure off Washington. The existencemore »« less
Coastal zone wind energy. Part II. Climatology. Final report. [USA]

Technical Report Garstang, M ; Aspliden, C I ; Nnaji, S ; ...

The surface wind regime of the coastal zone of the United States from Texas to Maine is described in terms of observations (10 year onshore and 1 to 3 years offshore record) and a two-dimensional numerical model. Three zones of high and three zones of low mean wind speed are identified. High mean wind speeds are defined as mean annual winds at 10 m exceeding 4 mps. A strong dependence upon distance inland and offshore from the coastline is shown. A relationship for the decrease of wind speed from the shore inland is developed.
