Numerical model of larval dispersion : phase I of the East End Algal Bloom Program

Abstract

from the preface, "This report covers the research activities conducted with the support of the County of Suffolk (Agreement number 14-8225-456-01-0001, dated November 15, 1985) and the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (Cooperative Agreement 09000-0001276, dated February 20, 1986) . These studies were undertaken in response to the so-called "brown tide" algal bloom which significantly affected the marine resources of eastern Long Island in 1985. The proposal on which this research was initiated was entitled "East End algal bloom program - Phase I: model of larval drift and algal identification.""
