Acoustic investigation of Paleo‐drainage networks in central Chesapeake Bay

Interactive Chesapeake Bay Simulation

Scientists use sophisticated numerical models to study ocean circulation and other physical systems, but the complex nature of such simulation software generally make them inaccessible to non-expert users. In principle, however, numerical models represent an ideal teaching tool, allowing users to model the response of a complex system to changing conditions. We have designed an interactive simu...

Incidence of Vibrio parahaemolyticus in Chesapeake Bay.

A Bay-wide survey of the distribution of Vibrio parahaemolyticus was carried out in Chesapeake Bay during May 1972, to determine whether the annual cycle of V. parahaemolyticus which was observed to occur in the Rhode River subestuary of Chesapeake Bay took place in other parts of Chesapeake Bay. In an earlier study, April to early June, when the water temperature rises from 14 to 19 C, was fou...

Nutrient limitation of phytoplankton in Chesapeake Bay

This paper presents evidence of a seasonal shift from P to N as the nutrient limiting the accumulation of algal biomass in Chesapeake Bay. Following the winter/spring maximum in freshwater runoff, (1) the ratio of dissolved inorganic nitrogen to soluble reactive phosphorus (DIN/PO,) was greater than the N/P of algal biomass; (2) alkaline phosphatase activity was high; (3) phosphate turnover tim...
