Barometric Pressure Variations Associated with Eastern Pacific Tropical Instability Waves*
Barometric pressure, surface temperature, and wind time series in the eastern equatorial Pacific are analyzed to determine if oceanic tropical instability wave (TIW) sea surface temperature variations cause barometric pressure gradients large enough to influence the atmospheric boundary layer. During the study period from April 2001 to September 2002, 11 TIWs propagated westward past 110!W, cau...
متن کاملThe Benthic Macrofauna of Sludge-affected Sediments in the Derwent Estuary, Southern Tasmania
The paper reports the findings ofan extensive survey of benthic invertebrates from the Derwent estuary in southern Tasmania, sampled during an investigation into the distribution and character of sludge emanating from a pulp and paper factory. In total, 45 invertebrate species were collected, but none was found in the sediment in the river channel berween the pulpmill (its effluent outfall) and...
متن کاملDolphin Habitats in the Eastern Tropical Pacific
Research-ship surveys by the Southwest Fisheries Center provided information on the distributions of spotted, spinner, striped, and common dolphins in the eastern tropical Pacific. The main surveys were conducted from January to March during 1976,1977,1979, and 1980. 1\\'0 ships were used per survey, and together they overlapped most areas in the eastern Pacific where dolphins and yellowfin tun...

متن کاملDelphinus delphis) in the Eastern Tropical Pacific: A Phylogeographic Classification
Current information is reviewed that provides clues to the intraspecific structure of dolphin species incidently killed in the yellowfin tuna purse-seine fishery of the eastern tropical Pacific (ETP). Current law requires that management efforts are focused on the intraspecific level, attempting to preserve local and presumably locally adapted populations. Four species are reviewed: pantropical...
