Beschreibungen/Notizen

• The papers in this issue of Estuaries are based on presentations made at a symposium entitled "Pulsed Ecosystems: A New Paradigm?" dedicated to William E. Odum (Fig. 1) and his contributions to estuarine science. The symposium was held in conjunction with the Estuarine Research Federation Meeting in November 1993 on Hilton Head Island, South Carolina. The day-long session included a keynote presentation by Eugene P. and Howard T. Odum, and talks by eminent estuarine scientists including all of Bill Odum's former Ph.D. students. The symposium was supported by the William E. Odum Memorial Fund which was established by the Department of Environmental Sciences at the University of Virginia following the death of Bill Odum on April 3, 1991. The generous support of faculty, staff, and alumni of the University of Virgnia, Bill's colleagues and friends from around the world, and Odum family friends made establishment of the memorial fund and the symposium possible.
