Clemens, H.B., and W.L. Craig. 1965. An analysis of 

 California's albacore fishery. Calif. Dep. Fish 

 Game, Fish Bull. 128, 301 p. 



Historical review of California's albacore 

 fishery. Seasonal variation, size and age 

 composition, migration, and relation to sea 

 temperatures . 



KEY WORDS: tuna, albacore, stock, size and 

 age, migration, temperatures, catch, behav- 

 ior . 



Craig, W.L., and E.K. Dean. 1968. Scouting for alba- 

 core with surface salinity data. Undersea Tech- 

 nol.. May 1968, p. 22. 



Used surface salinity values to indicate 

 boundaries between water bodies off the 

 California coast. Showed that transition 

 zones are complex and on a scale of hundreds 

 of yards, not miles. 



KEY WORDS: tuna, albacore, surface tempera- 

 ture, salinity, currents, habitat. 



Creswell , G.R. 1976. A drifting bouy tracked by sat- 

 ellite in the Tasman Sea. Aust. J. Mar. Freshwater 

 Res. 27:251-262. 



Compared buoys tracked by satellites and sea 

 surface temperature data from merchant ships. 

 Successfully used satellites for locating the 

 drifting buoys. Buoys followed the circula- 

 tion pattern and tended to concentrate in 

 frontal zones of current systems. Buoys 

 could serve as indicators of tuna aggrega- 

 tion. 



KEY WORDS: currents, temperature, conver- 

 gence .
