University Of Rhode Island Oceanographers Link Warmer Water Temperatures And The Decline Of Winter Flounder
Biological oceanographers Aimee Keller and Grace Klein-MacPhee at the University of Rhode Island’s Graduate School of Oceanography have conducted experiments on winter flounder that suggest that the decline of the species in Narragansett Bay may be the result of elevated winter water temperatures. In a recent study, reported in the Canadian Journal of Fisheries and Aquatic Sciences, Keller and Klein-MacPhee tested the direct link between warmer temperatures and the growth and survival of winter flounder larvae and examined the relationship between temperature and the components leading to larval fish. The study was conducted in the mesocosms of the Marine Ecosystem Research Laboratory at the URI Narragansett Bay Campus. Keller and Klein-MacPhee’s study, funded by a U.S. Environmental Protection Agency Cooperative Agreement with the National Academy of Sciences of the National Research Council, found that the cumulative impact of warmer temperatures on the early life history of winter flounder from hatching through the late larval stage resulted in 10-16% fewer larvae surviving to the metamorphosis stage at 6 weeks.

Biological Oceanographers Study Potentially Toxic Microalgae On The Northeast Coast
In a recent issue of Northeastern Naturalist, University of Rhode Island biological oceanographers Paul E. Hargraves and Lucie Maranda described the occurrence of 46 phytoplankton species that are potentially toxic to humans, or harmful to marine life, or both. The area from which they compiled their information includes the southeast coast of Nova Scotia to the Hudson River estuary in New York and out to the edge of the continental shelf. The research was supported by the National Science Foundation and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration. Hargraves and Maranda included in their list species considered potentially toxic to humans if one or more strains of the species is known to produce toxins affecting humans, the species in strongly implicated or proven to cause human illness or fatality, or the species has produced a positive reaction in mammalian toxicity tests. They also included species harmful to marine life if one or more strains are known to produce substances harmful to normal life processes, or the species is strongly implicated or proved to cause mortality under laboratory or natural conditions.

  • Work at remote field sites is common.
Nature of the Work About this section Top Geologists, geophysicists, and oceanographers use their knowledge of the physical makeup and history of the Earth to locate water, mineral, and energy resources; protect the environment; predict future geologic hazards; and offer advice on construction and land use projects. By using sophisticated instruments and analyses of the Earth and water, geological scientists, also known as geoscientists Geology, geophysics, and oceanography are closely related fields; but there are major differences. Geologists study the composition, processes, and history of the Earth. They try to find out how rocks were formed and what has happened to them since formation. They also study the evolution of life by analyzing plant and animal fossils. Geophysicists Oceanographers Many geologists, geophysicists and oceanographers are involved in the search for oil and gas, but other geological scientists play an important role in preserving and cleaning up the environment. Activities include designing and monitoring waste disposal sites, preserving water supplies, and reclaiming contaminated land and water to comply with Federal environmental regulations.

P rofessor Johann Lutjeharms of UCT's Department of Oceanography recently returned from an exploratory expedition to the south-western parts of the Indian Ocean, during the course of which oceanographers found evidence to substantiate an "outrageous prediction" he made more than 25 years ago. In 1972, while a MSc student at UCT, Prof Lutjeharms wrote an article to point out the need for focused research in certain critical regions of the south-west Indian Ocean. In this article, he argued the likelihood that no coherent or consistent Mozambique Current existed, despite a centuries-old orthodoxy that claimed otherwise.

AUXILIARIST ASSISTS NAVAL OCEANOGRAPHERS
Burnie Radosh on Watch
Throughout the better part of the month of January, Auxiliarist Burnie Radosh, Flotilla 36, D7, performed an unheralded service for the US Navy. On a daily basis, Bernie took 4 US Naval Officers and 1 British Naval Officer, all oceanographers, out on his vessel, the Auxiliary Operational Facility Nerissa . While aboard, the oceanographers performed various and sundry studies of the near-shore, coastal waters of Florida. Up front it should be noted that the Nerissa is a 41' sailing catamaran Lt. Cdr. Don Ventura, British Royal Navy, said, "Each day is a different study. Depending on the weather, the study could last up to two weeks." As an example, one day was spent running parallel tracks close to the shoreline while the Navy deployed a drogue equipped with side scan sonar to map the bottom.
Split Screen Display Auxiliarist Hal Leahy, Flotilla 51, D7, acted as a crewmember on one of the patrols. "We ran our patrol for over 10 hours that day and I found out, after it was over, that it was one of the shortest Burnie had run," he said. "Back and forth, back and forth we ran. The patrol displaced any doubts I may have had about sailboats and their use as operational facilities. If I can, I want to go out again on patrol with Burnie," said Hal. The Commanding Officer (C.O.) of Coast Guard Station Fort Lauderdale provided a major assist to both the CG Auxiliary and the Navy by allowing Burnie to berth his vessel at their docks during the operation. The off shore activity required a crew of two plus the coxswain and the CG Station C.O. offered, if needed, active duty personnel to fill in as crew.

55. Phenomena, Comment And Notes - Oceanographers Have Discovered A Surprising Possi

Phenomena, Comment and Notes Experiments at sea show we can cause phytoplankton to bloom in areas where it otherwise would not. This could remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and slow global warming A light industrial area on the outskirts of Salinas, California, is probably the last place that you would think to look for an oceanographic institute. Yet, that is exactly where I found the Moss Landing Marine Laboratories, the birthplace of one of the decade's most startling scientific experiments. It was 1987 when oceanographer John Martin at Moss Landing first conceived what has come to be called the "iron hypothesis." Martin, who died in 1993, was a rather extraordinary individual. Working from a wheelchair since a bout with polio, he nonetheless managed on occasion to ship out with his research teams aboard the cramped, overcrowded vessels that are the oceanographer's primary labs. He noted that there are huge areas of ocean (mainly in the waters surrounding Antarctica and in the equatorial Pacific) that have large amounts of nutrients in the form of nitrogen compounds, but very few plankton. These regions also seem to have very low concentrations of iron-on the order of two parts per trillion. Just as lack of a single vitamin or trace mineral can stunt the growth of humans, Martin argued, the dearth of plankton in these otherwise nutrient-rich waters was because of the scarcity of iron. But draw enough carbon dioxide out of the atmosphere, scientists predict, and that temperature will drop. "Give me a half a tanker of iron," Martin once said, "and I'll give you the next ice age." It wasn't all bluster. Scientists now estimate that iron fertilization could, in principle, remove as much as 20 percent of the human-generated carbon dioxide from the atmosphere at a cost less than alternatives such as large-scale tree planting.

AN ACADEMIC PERSPECTIVE ON EDUCATING OPERATIONAL OCEANOGRAPHERS
Mary L. Batteen, NPS, Monterey, CA 93943. The mission of our oceanography department is to provide a sound understanding of the science of physical oceanography, and to develop the technical expertise to provide and use oceanographic and acoustic data and models in support of sea operations and undersea warfare. Several curricula have been developed to meet these needs: basic oceanography, operational oceanography, undersea warfare, and a unique joint degree in meteorology and physical oceanography. The department has developed a broad research program focused on basic and operational physical oceanography to meet the anticipated future needs of the Navy. Important basic research themes are the development of the scientific capabilities to measure, analyze and forecast fields of coastal ocean variables that occur in association with synoptic/mesoscale processes over limited regional and temporal domains. The areas of emphasis include coastal and nearshore dynamics, air-sea interaction phenomena and boundary currents. Regions of interest include the coastal ocean regions and strategic seas and straits of the world. Priority applied research areas are the application of analyses and forecasts of upper ocean synoptic/mesoscale variability to Naval operations. Areas of interest include the impact of littoral processes, eddies and boundary currents on ocean surveillance systems, the effect of coastal ocean response to storms on acoustic propagation and ambient noise, and the impact of wave, climate and beach characteristics with nearshore processes and their impact on mine/mine countermeasures and amphibious warfare.

NSF and ONR-Supported Oceanographers Report Results of "Iron Experiment": Findings Shed Light on Ocean/Atmosphere Climate Link Cheryl Dybas
NSF 94-44
September 7, 1994
A team of National Science Foundation (NSF)-and Office of Naval Research (ONR)-supported oceanographers from California's Moss Landing Marine Laboratories and several other institutions working in the Pacific Ocean south of the Galapagos Islands has confirmed the "iron hypothesis": that plant growth in large areas of the ocean is limited by the availability of dissolved iron. Plant biomass rapidly increased at a mid-ocean site fertilized with iron by expedition scientists. The research results have been published in this week's issue of the journal Nature. The iron hypothesis, developed by the late John Martin of Moss Landing Marine Laboratories, has received international notice over the past few years. This idea was linked to global climate by Martin, who realized that the atmospheric transport of large amounts of dust to the ocean could stimulate photosynthesis by microscopic marine plants, called phytoplankton. Increased plant production in the ocean would then draw down atmospheric carbon dioxide, a "greenhouse" gas, thus cooling the earth, Martin believed. Records of ancient atmospheric conditions preserved in ice cores on the Antarctic continent suggest that this process has, in fact, occurred in the past. When dust and iron concentrations were high, as during the last two glacial cycles, atmospheric CO2 concentrations were low.
