Notes | The author surveyed the distribution of meiofauna in a small embayment in Yaquina Bay near the Hatfield Marine Science Center. She then studied the distribution of meiofaunal organisms in response to minor changes in the topography and postulated a driving mechanism ("the micro-flow regime over a rippled sediment surface").for the changes. (from the Abstract). M.S. thesis. Major professor was Charles B. Miller. |
