The results of 6 years of research by the Coastal and Marine Geology Program (CMGP)'s Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary project have recently been published in a special issue of the journal Marine Geology (v. 181, no. 1-3, 321 p., dated March 15, 2002). Edited by Steve Eittreim and Marlene Noble (Menlo Park, CA) and entitled "Seafloor Geology and Natural Environment of the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary," the volume contains 16 articles by 39 authors. The articles cover a wide range of topics, including sea-floor geology and morphology, sedimentation processes, hydrocarbons and sea-floor seeps, foraminiferal environments, circulation, and histories of shoreline erosion and accretion. A CD-ROM at the back of the volume contains most of the data and interpretations from the project.
Steve Eittreim led the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary project from 1994 until its conclusion. His efforts were honored in March 2002 when he received the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary Award for Science/Research from the Monterey Bay National Marine Sanctuary and the Association of Monterey Bay Area Governments (see article in April 2002 issue of Sound Waves).
