Poster Number:  202 Presenter/Primary Author:  Maciek Obryk The McMurdo Dry Valleys (approximately 77°45ˈS, 162°E) is the largest ice-free valley system in Antarctica with a cold, hyper-arid climate and mean valley bottom temperatures ranging from -14.8

Observations of spatial variability in flow over coral reefs

Poster Number:  200 Presenter/Primary Author:  Jim Hench Although small-scale spatial flow variability can affect both larger-scale circulation patterns and biological processes on coral reefs, there are few direct measurements of flow patterns at scales

Impacts of N fertilization on tidal creek N cycling: Denitrification vs. DNRA

Poster Number:  199 Presenter/Primary Author:  Amanda Vieillard Salt marshes are critical ecosystems for removing reactive nitrogen (N) through denitrification.  We examined the influence of long-term fertilization on N transformation and removal in a salt

Water mass subduction and eddy effects on phytoplankton distributions in the Santa Barbara Channel, California

Poster Number:  198 Presenter/Primary Author:  Libe Washburn Observations using towed, undulating vehicles show that phytoplankton layers occur well below euphotic zone depths in the Santa Barbara Channel (SBC).  The deep layers are typically found wher
