Stations (Table 1) sampled for erosion analysis (black squares) and concentration of A. fundyense cysts in 0–1 cm interval of surface sediment for 2011 (pink circles). Erosion results are reported in this paper for seven stations: Grand Manan (GM), eastern Maine shelf (EMS), central Maine shelf (CMS), western Maine shelf (WMS), central Maine seed bed (CMSB), western Jordan Basin (WJB), and northern Wilkinson Basin (NWB). The surfaces of cores obtained at stations 4, 9, 15, and 52 were deemed disturbed. Samples obtained at the cyst-map stations were analyzed for cyst concentration (0–1 cm and 1–3 cm intervals) and sediment texture (0–3 cm interval). Multiple samples with the Craib corer were obtained at stations 43, CMSB, and GM. Triangles mark locations of NDBC Buoys 44005 and 44007. The largest cyst concentrations are in the Bay of Fundy east of Grand Manan Island (GM); south of Penobscot Bay (CMSB); and southwest along the western Maine and New Hampshire coasts. Isobaths smoothed over ~7 km.
