In October, 1931, the California Fish and Game Commission con- ducted a survey of several Southern California beds. The patrol boat Bluefin (Captain AYalter Engelke) was used for the fieldwork. A similar, but more intensive survey off the Orange County coast was made in August, 1949, by patrol boat under Captain Lars Weseth, as- sisted by Walter Engelke (retired) and staff members of the State Fisheries Laboratory. This survey had special reference to the sport fisheries of the area. In the early 1940's Dr. Claude E. Zobell of Scripps Institution car- ried out kelp observations, contrasting mainland kelp beds with those around the offshore islands. He also made a six-year study of beach litter and shore erosion. In the period 1944 to 1947, Mr. C. K. Tseng- worked on kelp problems at Scripps and a half-dozen publications resulted. The most complete study of the kelp beds was conducted by Mr. Con- rad Limbaugh of Scripps Institution of Oceanography from September, 1948 to March, 1954. The results of this five and one-half year study were published in a 158 page report dated September, 1955. It covered life history studies, effects of harvesting, and the fish life of the kelp beds. After the first year, the survey was financed b}^ a fellowship grant to the University of California from the Kelco Co. of San Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original
