Effect of barnacle fouling on ship resistance and powering [PDF]
Predictions of added resistances and effective powers of ships were made for varying barnacle fouling conditions. A series of towing tests were carried out using flat plates covered with artificial barnacles.

From the individual to the community and beyond: water quality, stress indicators and key species in coastal waters [PDF]
This review examines water quality and stress indicators at levels of organisation from the individual to the community and beyond by means of three case studies concentrating on rocky shores within the north-east Atlantic.

Broughton Archipelago Clam Terrace Survey : final report [PDF]
During a 1995 aerial video survey of the coastline of Johnstone Strait, an unusual shoreline feature was noted and termed “clam terraces” (inset) because of the terrace-type morphology and the apparent association with high clam productivity on the ...

Transient spatiotemporal chaos collapses into periodic and steady states in an electrically-coupled neural ring network [PDF]
Chaotic behavior in a spatially extended system is often referred to as spatiotemporal chaos. The trajectories of a system as it evolves through state space are described by irregular spatial and temporal patterns.
