Three cruises were made during May, July, and September 1978,
to measure the regional hydrographic structure in the vicinity of
Nantucket Shoals on the New England Continental Shelf. A summary
of the hydrographic observations made during Cruise NSl, NS2, and
NS3 on the R/V EDGERTCN is presented in graphic form.

The ecology of colonial radiolarians : their colony morphology, trophic interactions and associations, behavior, distribution, and the photosynthesis of their symbionts
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1979-08)Colonial radiolarians (Spumellaria) are among the most common and abundant large zooplankton, but they have been little studied by modern biologists. Colonies were found on 98% of epipelagic diving stations in the period ... -
A determination of air-sea gas exchange and upper ocean biological production from five noble gases and tritiugenic helium-3
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2007-09)The five noble gases (helium, neon, argon, krypton, and xenon) are biologically and chemically inert, making them ideal oceanographic tracers. Additionally, the noble gases have a wide range of solubilities and molecular ... -
Basalt petrogenesis beneath slow- and ultraslow-spreading Arctic mid-ocean ridges
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2009-02)To explore the ability of melting mafic lithologies to produce alkaline ocean-island basalts (OIB), an experimental study was carried out measuring clinopyroxene (Cpx)- melt and garnet (Gt)-melt partition coefficients ...
