    Notes: Abstract  On the highly productive Oman Margin of the Arabian Sea, where an intense permanent oxygen minimum impinges on the continental slope, there is no relationship between oxygen concentration and sedimentary organic-carbon content. However, we provide photographic and molecular evidence that benthic invertebrates play a significant role in the redistribution of organic matter. High densities of spider crabs and brittle stars characterize a narrow band near the base of the oxygen minimum zone, where sediments have depleted organic carbon contents and a remarkable lipid composition that is indicative of metabolic alteration of phytoplankton-derived sterols by invertebrate detritivores. The distributions of sedimentary sterols and the high abundances of epifaunal crabs and brittle stars suggest that the metabolism of the megabenthos profoundly influences the quality of organic matter in underlying sediments.

    Notes: Abstract An experimental evaluation of the effects of spatially-limited (i.e. localized) surface suction on a turbulent junction flow was performed using Particle Image Velocimetry (PIV). The results indicate that surface suction can (1) weaken both the instantaneous turbulent vortex and its associated surface interactions in the symmetry plane, (2) effectively eliminate the presence of the average turbulent necklace vortex in the symmetry plane, and (3) weaken the average downstream extensions of the vortex. It was also established that suction effectively reduces the low frequency component of the Reynolds-stress in both the symmetry plane and trailing-edge cross-stream planes, and stabilizes the behavior of the trailing vortex legs.
