The deepest water at each sta- tion was 7 m and the channel width was about 300 m. Inlets were sampled one night each week on adjacent nights (quasi-synoptic).

Each night's sampling con- sisted of 12 repetitive tows, about 10 minutes apart, with a , 800 micron- mesh-net on a 1-m-diameter, sled-mounted, aluminum frame towed at a net speed of 1 m/sec . A tow consisted of actively towing the net in the deepest water along the axis of the channel down to the bottom and back to the surface. Tows were always made into the current. A flow-meter measured the volume of water passing through the net. Each tow took 4 minutes, filtering approximately 200 m3.
