December, 1984, for example). Developments in the use of hyperbaric welding (and an atmospheric welding system alternative, WELDAP), the mechanization of welding (THOR I, a remotely-operated orbital welding machine), the Hydra experimental program on hydrogen mixtures, etc. are treated. Saga 1, a new, highly autonomous and long range submersible that will provide logistical support for deepwater construction, is also described briefly. (wbg)

These thirty papers, first presented at ICEDIVE 84 in Stockholm, are divided into three sections: (1) medical and physiological problems (stress, cold, diving response, resuscitation); (2) diving operations (training, protection, rescue); and (3) underwater operations (conditions, submersibles, navigation).

Ocean disposa/ systems for sewage sludge and effluent. National Academy Press, Washington, D.C.; 126pp.
Following a 1981 National Research Council symposium on engineering problems in ocean waste disposal, a committee of the Marine Board was organized to examine the technical and economic aspects of the ocean disposal of treated wastewater and sewage sludge, particularly the transport of domestic waste from treatment to disposal sites. This report on the findings of the committee includes a discussion of relevant wastewater characteristics, a description of common techniques and the system engineering approach, a parametric economic analysis of transportation systems, suggestions for research, and examples of applications. It is concluded that techniques presently available are capable of providing ocean disposal systems that meet

Repercussions from the 1982 Coastal Barrier Resources Act, which limits federal subsidies for development of 'undeveloped' coastal barriers, may require formulation of a comprehensive management program with respect to 'developed' coastal barriers (DCBs) according to conference participants. Impact of development on barrier dynamics (dune and erosion management, public health) and effects of barrier dynamics on development (hazard mitigation), as well as public beach access rights were discussed. Alternative DCB management strategies were suggested. Land and Water Policy Center, Univ. of Mass., Amherst, MA 01003, USA. (gsb) 86:1750 Burke, R.G., 1985. Cleanup ~ oily water poses a challenge.

For the gulf and other sites of offshore oil production two new pieces of equipment may provide a means to reduce the amount of minute oil particles that remain after available oil-water separation techniques have been applied.
