Live bait fishing is an essential component of the pole-and-line tuna fishery, whereby small fishes are caught in rectangular lift nets, often using lights at night to lure them to the water's surface... Bait fishing takes place within the atoll lagoon around reefs prior to each offshore tuna fishing trip. The captured baitfish are kept alive in tanks in the vessels’ hold until the pole-and-line fishing begins.  3, record 1, English, - live%2Dbait%20fishing

upwelling: The rising of cold, heavy sub-surface water toward the surface, especially along the western coasts of continents (as along the coast of southern California); the displaced surface water is transported away from the coast by the action of winds parallel to it or by diverging currents.

From January to March 1986 a major field project, the Genesis of Atlantic Lows Experiment(GALE), was held off the eastern seaboard of the United States... The objective of the experiment was to improve the understanding of the genesis and development of winter storms in the region. A crucial component of the experiment was the documentation of air-sea interaction that takes place as cold and dry continental airflows over the warm surface waters of the Gulf Stream. To accomplish this, eight instrumented buoys were deployed offshore of North and South Carolina, and two research vessels were tasked with making measurements of surface and subsurface temperatures, salinities, and currents.  5, record 11, English, - Genesis%20of%20Atlantic%20Lows%20Experiment
