During October, November, and December of 1975, seventy gravity base stations
were established on the islands of eastern Indonesia (Timor, Wetar, Leti, Moa,
Sermata, Babar, Ambon, Seram, Manawoko, Kasiui, Kao Besar, Hungar, Serua, Banda
Neira, Boano, Kelang and S.W. Sulawesi), New Caledonia and Fiji. The measurements
were made with LaCoste and Romberg land gravimeter G-114. This report presents station descriptions and summarizes the results.

(John Wiley & Sons, 2014-06-17)This study examined sources of mixed layer and shallow subsurface waters in the subtropical Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, across the last deglaciation (~30–5 ka). δ18O and δ13C from planktonic foraminifera Globgerinoides ... -
Wavenumber–frequency spectra of inertia–gravity and mixed Rossby–gravity waves in the equatorial Pacific Ocean
(American Meteorological Society, 2012-11)In the 1970s and 1980s, there was considerable interest in near-equatorial variability at periods of days to weeks associated with oceanic equatorial inertia–gravity waves and mixed Rossby–gravity waves. At that time, the ... -
