Book excerpt: Excerpt from Progress Report of the Bureau of Commercial Fisheries Radiobiological Laboratory, Beaufort, N. C: Fiscal Year 1968 For most of the year, the Acting Chief of the Estuarine Ecology Program, R. B. Williams, has been on educational leave at Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, Tenn. This training consisted of course work in mathematics and systems ecology at the University of Tennessee, and work with J. S. Olson (oak Ridge National Laboratory) on a study supported by the Ford Foundation on the applicability of systems analysis to resource management. Williams has, in addition, be come familiar with the use of analog and digital computers. This training and the computer facilities at Oak Ridge National Laboratory were used in the analysis of previously gathered data on the standing crap and growth of needlesalt-marsh plant of the North Carolina coast. For this analysis, the standing crop of needle rush was divided into three categories-live, dying, and dead. These categories averaged 344, 504, and g./m.2 (dry weight), and had turnover rates of and year, respectively. The annual production of organic matter by needle rush, 735 was slightly greater than that of cord grass, another important salt-marsh species.
