Hypoxia and Estuarine Turbidity Maxima

June 25, 2007

Hi, my name is Christina Tweed and it's my first day here at M.E.R.T.S. I just graduated from Astoria High School and am planning on going to Oregon State University in the fall.

Today I researched hypoxia and estuarine turbidity maxima in anticipation of CTD sets.

The first step was researching what these were as well as the history that goes along with them. After looking these up I studied the protocol for the research that went along with these terms. This gave me a better understanding of some of the reasons why we are doing these CTD sets.
