Summary
Abstract: The objectives of this project are to examine in broad context the historical changes in the Biscayne Bay ecosystem at selected sites on a decadal-centennial scale, and to correlate these changes with natural events and anthropogenic alterations in the South Florida region. Specific emphasis will be placed on historical changes to 1) amount, timing, and sources of freshwater influx and the ... View entire text

Quality The values provided in spatial and temporal coverage are approximate only.

We propose a broadband seismic transect across the northern flank of the Gamburtsev Mountains in the heart of East Antarctica. The line of 6 earthquake recorders between the southern Lambert Glacier region and the ice topographic 'high' at Dome Argus would form part of a flagship ... View entire text
