A survey of the marine environment offshore from Palos Verdes Point, Los Angeles County, California
The results of a three year, quarterly survey of thesubtidal marine environment offshore from Palos VerdesPoint, Los Angeles County, California are recorded. Both a 100 m (328 ft) transect consisting of 21 stations at 5 m (16 ft) intervals established in 14 to 17 m (45 to 55 ft) and a series of five arc stations located at 6, 12, 18, 24 and 30 m (20, 40, 60, 80 and 100 ft) were surveyed. Significant results included the documentation of long term cycles in the large brown kelps, Egregia laevigata and Eisenia arborea. A herbivore cycle which followed this algal cycle was also tentatively identified. Document has 89 pages.
