James River Studied in Virginia Hydrographic Project
The Virginia Institute of Marine Science will conduct an intensive hydrographic study of the James River from Richmond to Hampton Roads starting next week. Data will guide orderly marine resource development, with completion set for June 30, 1972. Funding from three state agencies supports research vessels at 100 hour stations measuring temperature salinity current speed direction and dissolved oxygen content.
