	note = {Understanding the carbon cycle is increasingly important in a world feeling the effects of anthropogenic climate change.  While oceans absorb carbon dioxide, estuaries release CO2 into the atmosphere, so understanding estuarine processes is particularly important.  The carbon cycle in estuaries, however, is complex.  In this thesis, the author describes a new instrument that can be used to measure the partial pressure of carbon dioxide and details how it was used in the Yaquina Bay estuary, and in the Pacific Ocean. Measurements of CO2  in Alsea Bay and Netarts Bay are also discussed.  The thesis gives a good overview of carbon chemistry and dynamics in the estuarine environment. Major professor was Burke R. Hales.},
