Ocean energy systems. Quarterly report, January-March 1983

Description: Progress is reported on the development of Ocean Thermal Energy Conversion (OTEC) systems that will provide synthetic fuels (e.g., methanol), energy-intensive products such as ammonia (for fertilizers and chemicals), and aluminum. The work also includes assessment and design concepts for hybrid plants, such as geothermal-OTEC (GEOTEC) plants. Another effort that began in the spring of 1982 is a technical advisory role to DOE with respect to their management of the conceptual and preliminary des… more

Primary Productivity by Phytoplankton in the Tidal, Fresh Potomac River, Maryland, May 1980 to August 1981

Description: Purpose and scope: The purpose of this study was to determine primary productivity and respiration of the fresh, tidal Potomac River. The data will be used by the authors and other researchers involved in modelling chemical and biological properties to calculate phytoplankton growth rates. Methods are documented in detail so that the report could serve as a reference. The report covers the period from May 1980 through August 1981. Five stations were selected for study that are representative of… more
