Title: Selected bibliography of the physical, chemical, and biological oceanographic literature for the waters surrounding Guam

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:6122705

An ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) plant has been proposed to be built at Guam. A study of the impact of such a plant would be needed, since the movement of deep, cold water into shallow, warm water may have significant effects on the biota and the surrounding physical environment. No comprehensive overview of the ocean at Guam exists. The Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory at the University of California, Berkeley, contracted the Guam Natural Energy Institute at the University of Guam Marine Laboratory to carry out a review of the existing oceanoraphic data and scientific literature about the ocean water surrounding the island of Guam. This selected bibliography of 262 titles is the initial product of the contract. This bibliography includes the major literature pertaining to the ocean at Guam. It is selected for numerous reasons. Many titles appear in at least two forms - thesis or technical report and journal article. The published article is preferentially cited. A great deal of information is in manuscript or unpublished form which will be printed at a later date.
