offshore

In February 2000, scientists from the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute were using a remotely operated vehicle to observe sea animals offshore when they discovered a bioluminescent mollusk with a large gelatinous hood and paddle-like tail.

The creature lives offshore along the Pacific coast of North America and has been spotted as far north as Oregon and as far south as Southern California, according to the release.

The shortest winning novel in the history of the prize was 1979's Offshore by Penelope Fitzgerald, at 132 pages.

"We're really active in trying to get future orders so we can continue to support the growth in offshore wind and making that product here in Hull," he added.

With intense offshore winds and extremely dry brush, the blaze spread quickly and, by the afternoon, had ripped through hillside neighborhoods near Camarillo.
