Settling Particles in Aquatic Environments:Low Reynolds Numbers
Settling Particles Aquatic Environments Low Reynolds Numbers
2015/7/23
The purpose of this activity is to familiarize students with how a particle's size, shape and orientation affects its settling at low Reynolds numbers. This activity can also be used to teach statisti...
Physical processes in the world's oceans span an enormous range of spatio-temporal scales, from ocean circulation at the global scale down to dissipation and mixing at the centimeter scale. It is impo...
Quantifying Uncertainties in Ocean Predictions
Ocean Predictions Quantifying Uncertainties
2015/7/23
A multitude of physical and biological processes occur in the ocean over a wide range of temporal and spatial scales. Many of these processes are nonlinear and highly variable, and involve interaction...
Computational simulation is now an essential methodology of science, along with theory and observation. The ability of scientists to understand and predict planetary climate variability largely depend...
Coupled Biological and Physical Models:Present Capabilities and Necessary Developments for Future Studies of Population Connectivity
Coupled Biological Physical Models Present Capabilities Necessary Developments Future Studies Population Connectivity
2015/7/22
The combination of wide-ranging spatial and temporal scales associated with the oceanic environment, together with processes intrinsic to the biology of marine organisms, makes the quantitative study ...
There is probably nothing more foundational to understanding the ocean than the study of salinity. New discoveries regarding its magnitude and variability continue to feed our knowledge of the nature ...
Forecasting the Ocean's Optical Environment Using the BioCast System
Ocean's Optical Environment BioCast System
2015/7/20
The Bio-Optical Forecasting (BioCast) system is a model that provides the US Navy with short-term forecasts of the ocean's optical environment. The forecasts are required to support a broad spectrum o...
The Fate of Fisheries Oceanography: Introduction to the Special Issue
Special Issue Fisheries Oceanography
2015/7/20
What is Fisheries Oceanography? Fisheries oceanography can be broadly defined as study of the interaction between marine fish and their environments across multiple life-history stages. Traditional fi...
A Framework for a Marine Biodiversity Observing Network Within Changing Continental Shelf Seascapes
Changing Continental Shelf Seascapes Biodiversity Observing
2015/7/17
Continental shelves and the waters overlying them support numerous industries as diverse as tourism and recreation, energy extraction, fisheries, transportation, and applications of marine bio-molecul...
Hovercraft as a Mobile Science Platform Over Sea Ice in the Arctic Ocean
Arctic Ocean Science Platform Over Sea Ice
2015/7/17
Physical sampling of sea ice, the water mass, and subbottom geology in the Arctic Ocean is carried out from icebreakers or temporary ice camps deployed and supported by aircraft. Here, we consider an ...
The importance of Dissimilatory Nitrate reduction to ammonium (DNra) in the Nitrogen cycle of coastal ecosystems
Dissimilatory Nitrate Nitrogen cycle
2015/7/16
Until recently, it was believed that biological assimilation and gaseous nitrogen (N) loss through denitrification were the two major fates of nitrate entering or produced within most coastal ecosyste...
Closure of the Global Overturning Circulation Through the Indian, Pacific, and Southern Oceans: Schematics and Transports
Indian Pacific Southern Oceans
2015/7/16
The overturning pathways for the surface-ventilated North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) and Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) and the diffusively formed Indian Deep Water (IDW) and Pacific Deep Water (PDW) a...
improving the Quality and Accessibility of current profile Measurements in the Southern Ocean
current profile Measurements Southern Ocean
2015/7/15
it takes more
than the Adcp itself, however, to yield good
current measurements. The end result depends
on how and where the sonar is installed; on
the quality of ancillary information includi...
A few decades ago, Antarctic ice sheets were expected to grow as the
atmosphere warmed and increasing poleward moisture transport added snowfall
to regions that would remain below freezing year-ro...
The densest waters in the world ocean are
formed on the continental shelf areas around
Antarctica by ice formation and by the loss
of heat and water to the air. The Weddell Sea
(e.g., gordon, ...
