Journal Publishes Report
By Dr. Gerald S. Posner
The results of a study on the
oceanography and attendant wea
ther conditions of the Peru Cur
rent, by Dr. Gerald S. Posner of
the University of North Carolina
Institute of Fisheries Research,
was published recently in the Bul
letin of the Bingham Oceanogra
phic Collection, Volume 16, Article
2, 1957.
This study is based primarily
on results obtained by the Yale
South American Expedition to Pe
ruvian waters between March and
May, 1953.
Dr. Posner collected data on the
Peru Current, a water mass flow
ing northward along the western
coast of South America, which is
cooled and enriched with nutrients
by subsurface water rising to the
surface.
This upwelling water keeps' the
surface temperature cooler than
that normally found during the
tummer in North Carolina sounds,
even though the Peru Current
comes within 300 miles of the equa
tor.
The water is so enriched with
food that it is estimated that the
fish-eating birds of the area an
nually consume more than the
total commercial fisheries catch
of the United States and Alaska.
The biological productivity of the
Peru Current was calculated by
Dr. Posner who found that in areas
of upwelling it was nearly ten
times as great as the productivity
of such prolific waters as Long
Island Sound.
In contrast with the high pro
ductivity of the sea, the Peruvian
coastal lands are barren as a re
sult of perpetual draught. In fact,
the occurrence of rain signals
abrupt changes in sea conditions
which sometimes are catastrophic
to the animals of the area. This
if associated with the southward
movement of warm equatorial wa
ter over the Peru Current.
This warm water mass is called
El Nino, "The Child," because
when it appears, it does so shortly
after the Chritsmas season. The El
Kino current sometimes deprives
aoastal dwellers, both bird and
atta, at their major food aouree
t>y killing fishes or by driving them
away.
In a severe El Nino, dead fish
Utter the beaches where decom
position befouls the air and water.
Guano birds, source of the na
tionally vital guano resource, die
or migrate in huge numbers.
According to Dr. Paaner's analy
sis of air pressure data for the
year* 189S through OSS, the peri
odic presence of El Nino along the
coast of Pern is closely associated
with regular shifts in the atmos

Thus, El Nino seems to be but
one manisfestation of a weather
abnormality that occurs nearly
every seven years. He points out
that much work remains to be
done to clarify the normal and ab
normal aspects of oceanic circula
tion in the area of the Peru cur

Dr. Posner is the second scientist
associated with the UNC Institute

on Peruvian waters. Dr. Robert E.
Coker, founder of the Institute,
did research in Peru in the early
1900'S.
Emerald Isle Businessfolk
Deplore Carteret Conditions
Mr. and Mrs. George E. Thomp
son and daughter, Doris, live at
Emerald Isle and operate Thomp
son's Steel fishing pier, one of Car
teret's four ocean piers.
The Thompsons Join the rest of
Carteret in complaining about the
poor service offered by Carolina
Telephone and Telegraph Co., but
they also raise other questions in
the letter appearing here:
The Thompsons Ask Why
We came to a desolate, remote
area and built a nice fishing pier.
We brought a lot of business to
Carteret. We have spent thousands
of dollars In advertising locally and
away from home. We have made
Carteret our home. We boost and
sell it daily. We do business with
Carteret's banks and Carteret's
business firms. Now we want to
know "Why?"
Why are we in a remote area
without telephone, mail and served
by second class highways, taxed
over two and one-half times (2Mt)
as much as similar structures lo
cated in the heart of your heaviest
populated beach? Why can't we
have an equalized valuation, based
on cost and location, as well as
those other essential facilities, tele
phone, mail, roads, etc.?
When the pier was opened In
1955, we made application for tele
phone service. No survey had been
made since. If so, we were not ap
proached. We have in the past of
fered to buy radio telephone equip
ment for both ends if we could be
hooked up for phone service. We
were turned down. We want to
know why all our requests have
been ignored.
REA has a working agreement
with the telephone company as to
use of poles. We have Investigated
and know that there will be no ob
jection from this end.
The phone company has recently

tance from his home.

Then he remembered: He had

telephone official! tell us there la
nothing available now. when they
art constantly adding on? Why do
we have to kfep making applica
tions? We have indicated our de
sire, and our need of such service
Is certainly apparent.
We, the Thompsons, only want to
know "Why?" Is this Carteret
County's method of welcoming peo
ple? Is this the way you plan to
bring in the money and people
which your county so sorely needs
both for educational facilities and
development? You, the people in
Carteret, have the greatest poten
tial as a resort area to be found
in the two Carollnas and you should
either develop it yourselves or use
all means possible to bring in the
necessary capital.
Instead of having a county in
debt, wondering about borrowing
funds for schools, you could have a
wealthy county, with plenty of tax
able property where you now have
jungles.
Carteret should quit suppressing
good publicity, should pull and
work together as a unit ? then all
Carteret will prosper.
