Abstract

The box of slides documents the field work of William Osman relating kelp and other benthic marine life during 1980-1981. Slides show images of plates that have been submerged in order to document species growing in the respective area. They contain labels for what appears to be panel identifier (e.g. L E3 16S), month and year (e.g. 12-80), possibly station identifier (e.g. 16N), and unidentified information (167-24). Slides are organized into four columns and are labeled with a sheet of paper in the top of the box. These list: kel etc.p exp. 4SK, kelp exp. 2MK, kelp exp. 16S, 4 BK, and 4BK crete.
