On this tenth anniversary of the
National Oceanographic Partnership
Program, and as our nation embarks on
a broad set of critical societal initiatives,
it is valuable to review the accomplishments
of the program, and reflect on
conceptual origins of the ocean partnership
idea and the process by which the
program was conceived and established.

The chemistry, biology, and vertical flux of oceanic particulate matter
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1977-01)Particulate matter samples, split into <l μm, 1-53 μm, and >53 μm size fractions have been obtained using a Large Volume in situ Filtration System (LVFS) during the SOUTHLANT expedition, R/V CHAIN 115. Profiles to 400 ... -
Zinc and cadmium in benthic foraminifera as tracers of ocean paleochemistry
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2000-02)Benthic foraminiferal δ13C, Cd/Ca, and Ba/Ca are important tools for reconstructing nutrient distributions, and thus ocean circulation, on glacial-interglacial timescales. However, each tracer has its own "artifacts" ... -
The determination of the elastic modulus of rubber mooring tethers and their use in coastal moorings
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2005-12)Compliance must be supplied to any surface mooring to allow the buoy to move with the waves and currents, and remain moored in position. This can be supplied with a traditional chain catenary or newer compliant elastic ...
