An analysis of sand accumulation was carried out in the entrance channel of Ventura Harbor based on 44 quasi-monthly sounding surveys made over the four-year period from January 1965 to January 1969. The accumulation was found to follow a marked seasonal pattern of little or no deposition in summar (May to October) and maximum deposition in winter (between November and March).

T HIS paper reports results of a time series study of recent wage behavior in manufacturing. The principal conclusions reached are that labor market variables are of prime importance in determining wage movements and that the wage guideposts did retard wage advances between 1962 and 1966. A novel feature of the paper is that it utilizes wage and unemployment series not previously used in studies of wages. The paper has three main parts. Section I briefly examines recent money wage literature. Some measurement issues are discussed in section II and the main regression results appear in section III.
