Abstracts of manuscripts submitted in 1988 for publication

Abstract

This volume contains the abstracts of manuscripts submitted for publication during calendar year 1988 by the staff and students of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution. We identify the journal for those manuscripts which are in press or have been published. The volume is intended to be informative, but not a bibliography. The abstracts are listed by title in the Table of Contents and are grouped into one of our five departments , marine policy, or the student category. An author index is presented in the back to facilitate locating specific papers.
