Early Work

These publications describe the early work done along the Seward Line. They summarize the basic oceanographic environment and important fisheries resources.

map with currents
The flow of the Alaska Coastal Current and subarctic gyre are indicated as are several geographic place names. (After Reed and Schumacher, 1986).
