Book Description
Excerpt from Oceanography of the Grand Banks Region of Newfoundland in 1967 The time required for a calibration survey varies from 4 to 7 days. This compares with about 7 days for the 1965 cruises which used a modified area survey and the pre-1965 cruises which required about 14 days for an area survey.

Book Description
Three cruises conducted off the Grand Banks of Newfoundland in support of International Ice Patrol in April, May, June, and July of 1967 obtained measurements of temperature and salinity from a salinity/temperature/depth recorder and from Nansen bottle observations. These data were used to draw temperature and salinity profiles across standard sections, and to calculate surface dynamic topography and volume flow through the sections. Dynamic calculations were based on a reference level of 1,000 meters. The cruises occupied standard section A3 a total of 12 times during the ice season and the data indicated that the volume flow of the Labrador Current showed large fluctuations with time in early May. The study of iceberg drift and deterioration, which was initiated in 1964, was also continued. (Author).

Book Description
The book describes the main marine and coastal biological systems of Passamaquoddy Bay and adjacent waters and the oceanographic and meteorological characteristics of the area. Subject areas begin with meteorolgy and oceanography. The second group covers the intertidal systems with chapters on rocky intertidal shores, rock pools, coarse sedimentary shores and salt marshes. The third general section covers hard and sedimentary sublittoral habitats. Following chapters discuss pelagic systems under the headings fishes, phytoplankton, larger zooplankton, and microzooplankton. Three chapters deal with the birds, amphibians and reptiles, and marine mammals. Finally coastal vegetation is described.

Book Description
Proceedings of a workshop, the scientific reviews and the contributed papers presented at the symposium. The document presents a brief historical summary of marine research in the Gulf; reports the discussions, conclusions and recommendations of the different working groups on oceanography (physics, biology, chemistry and sedimentology) and on the fishery (fish and invertebrates); then presents the discussions of each multidisciplinary working group, centered around how the St. Lawrence system may be used as a natural laboratory which will contribute to the solution of major long-term problems of conservation of natural resources and of the quality of the environment.
