Abstract
In August 1973 some 15 scientists from CSIRO’s Division of Fisheries and Oceanography, and from several other organizations, began a study aimed at understanding the flow of carbon through various biological and chemical compartments in a small marine embayment: the South West Arm of Port Hacking (located about 30 km south of the center of Sydney, New South Wales, Australia: Fig. 1).
