Petrology Of The Oceanographer Fracture Zone (35ºn35ºw), Tsugio Shibata Jan 1976

Petrology Of The Oceanographer Fracture Zone (35ºn35ºw), Tsugio Shibata

Geology Theses and Dissertations

During a geological and geophysical survey of the Oceanographer Fracture Zone (35°N, 35°W), seventeen dredge hauls containing a variety of rocks were obtained. Petrographic study shows that these rock samples can be classified into six main rock types: fresh basalt, weathered basalt, metabasalt, gabbro, metagabbro, and serpentinite. Most of the dredge hauls were positioned on the steep, southern wall of the fracture zone, and an inference from the dredging results suggests that basalt is the most abundant rock type which outcrops at the junction between the rift valley and the fracture zone; however, as we move away from the junction, …

Changes In Salinity Structure Of The James, York And Rappahannock Estuaries Resulting From The Effects Of Tropical Storm Agnes, Paul V. Hyer, Evon P. Ruzecki Jan 1976

Changes In Salinity Structure Of The James, York And Rappahannock Estuaries Resulting From The Effects Of Tropical Storm Agnes, Paul V. Hyer, Evon P. Ruzecki

VIMS Books and Book Chapters

The peak effect of the flood waters produced by Tropical Storm Agnes was seen on June 25 in the James, June 26 in the Rappahannock, and June 30 in the York. Recovery toward normal salinity conditions after the high runoffs proceeded discontinuously, with alternating periods of vertical stratification and destratification. During strongly stratified stages, saline water advanced upstream along the bottom. In the York and James Rivers, the most dramatic stratification occurred about July 20- 25. This event resulted in bottom salinity values exceeding normal ambient values and, at the river mouths, reaching values hitherto unobserved. This event was apparently …

The Effects Of The Agnes Flood On The Salinity Structure Of The Lower Chesapeake Bay And Contiguous Waters, A. Y. Kuo, E. P. Ruzecki, C. S. Fang Jan 1976

The Effects Of The Agnes Flood On The Salinity Structure Of The Lower Chesapeake Bay And Contiguous Waters, A. Y. Kuo, E. P. Ruzecki, C. S. Fang

VIMS Books and Book Chapters

The transient response of salinity distribution in lower Chesapeake Bay to flood waters from Tropical Storm Agnes is studied in terms of a two-layered, partially mixed estuary. Prior to 30 June 1972, surface salinities were well depressed throughout the Bay while those at the bottom near the Bay mouth were not depressed by 5 July. This resulted in a highly stratified situation normally found in the spring of the year. Stratification decreased when bottom waters were flushed down-bay by the flood (on 5 to 10 July for the region south of New Point Comfort). The "rebound" of salinity structure started …

The Effects Of Tropical Storm Agnes On The Copper And Zinc Budgets Of The Rappahannock River, Robert J. Huggett, Michael E. Bender Jan 1976

The Effects Of Tropical Storm Agnes On The Copper And Zinc Budgets Of The Rappahannock River, Robert J. Huggett, Michael E. Bender

VIMS Books and Book Chapters

The metals copper and zinc were analyzed in bottom sediments (top 1 cm) from the Rappahannock River before and after Tropical Storm Agnes. By extracting the sediments with various techniques (HN03, HCl) the nature of the metal speciation can be estimated. Data show that the inorganic copper was increased by a factor of 2 to 3 in the normally saline portion of the river as a result of Agnes but returned to before-Agnes levels within one year. Metal analyses of suspended sediments collected during the Agnes flooding allows an estimate of sedimentation indicating at least 7.5 mm of new sediments …

Flood Wave-Tide Wave Interaction On The James River During The Agnes Flood, John P. Jacobson, C. S. Fang Jan 1976

Flood Wave-Tide Wave Interaction On The James River During The Agnes Flood, John P. Jacobson, C. S. Fang

VIMS Books and Book Chapters

During the Agnes flood hourly tidal height data were collected at seven locations along the tidal James River and currents were measured at two transects in the lower James. A comparison between actual tides and currents and the predicted tidal features as given by the tide and tidal current tables of NOAA was made. Results of this comparison show that Agnes did significantly affect water levels in the upper portion of the tidal James, especially near Richmond. However in the lower portion of the James no discernible rise was evident due to the passage of the flood crest. A small …

Effects Of Tropical Storm Agnes On Nutrient Flux And Distribution In Lower Chesapeake Bay, C. L. Smith, W. G. Macintyre, C. A. Lake, J. G. Windsor Jr. Jan 1976

Effects Of Tropical Storm Agnes On Nutrient Flux And Distribution In Lower Chesapeake Bay, C. L. Smith, W. G. Macintyre, C. A. Lake, J. G. Windsor Jr.

VIMS Books and Book Chapters

Nutrient concentrations measured in lower Chesapeake Bay in the summer of 1972 immediately following the flooding associated with Tropical Storm Agnes are compared with those in the summer of 1973, a season of more normal rainfall. The large amount of land runoff produced unseasonably high concentrations of dissolved inorganic nitrogen in the Bay near the mouth of the Potomac River. Phosphate concentrations were essentially unaffected by the flooding. Fluxes of total nitrogen and total phosphorus nutrients through the mouth of Chesapeake Bay were calculated for both summers. The calculated net export of nutrients from the Bay in both August 1972, …

Observations On Dissolved Oxygen Conditions In Three Virginia Estuaries After Tropical Storm Agnes (Summer 1972), R.A. Jordan Jan 1976

Observations On Dissolved Oxygen Conditions In Three Virginia Estuaries After Tropical Storm Agnes (Summer 1972), R.A. Jordan

VIMS Books and Book Chapters

Dissolved oxygen (DO) and salinity levels in the James, York, and Rappahannock estuaries were monitored for approximately two months (June 24-August 31, 1972) following Tropical Storm Agnes. DO depressions developed more rapidly and were more severe in the deep waters of the York and Rappahannock than in the James. Depressions that developed immediately after the storm were followed by recoveries and subsequent, more severe depressions. In late July, bottom water DO concentrations below 1 mg/1 were found at stations covering 15 miles of the York and 25 miles of the Rappahannock. Comparison of river data with Chesapeake Bay data suggests …

VIMS Books and Book Chapters

A hydrographic station (Station Y) at the mouth of the York River (37°14.6'N, 76°23.4'W) was under biological surveillance for one year prior to the arrival of Tropical Storm Agnes. For one full year following this storm, these measurements were continued. In addition, the chlorophyll a and heterotrophic potential measurements were incorporated into an ongoing zooplankton sampling program of the lower Chesapeake Bay below 37°40'N latitude.

A Hydroclimatic Study Of The Narragansett Bay Drainage Basin: The Effects Of Climate And Urban Land Use On Runoff, Paul J. Jaillet Jan 1976

A Hydroclimatic Study Of The Narragansett Bay Drainage Basin: The Effects Of Climate And Urban Land Use On Runoff, Paul J. Jaillet

Marine Affairs Theses and Major Papers

This study analyzes the relationship between the climate of the Narragansett Bay Drainage Basin and the increasing urban land use into a relative increase in runoff in the Basin streams. Data for thirty-five years were collected to discern the trends in runoff within the Basin. It was hypothesized that runoff is increasing in relation to an increase in urban acreage. Runoff data were analyzed in two forms. The Thornthwaite water budget was used to estimate runoff. For this, Basin temperature and precipitation records were necessary inputs. The estimated runoff was plotted against observed runoff by double-mass analysis. Deviations from the …
