Sierra Nevada freshwater runoff could drop 26 percent by 2100, UC study finds(图)
UC Sierra Nevada freshwater runoff
2014/9/12
Irvine, Calif., Sept. 2, 2014 — Freshwater runoff from the Sierra Nevada may decrease by as much as one-quarter by 2100 due to climate warming on the high slopes, according to scientists at UC Irvine ...
We examined the dispersal of larvae (glochidia) of a common unionid mussel species, Actinonaias ligamentina,
which need to attach to a host fish in order to develop into juveniles, in a lowland river...
Migrating Thermal Structure in a Freshwater Thermocline
Migrating Thermal Structure Freshwater Thermocline
2009/2/23
The vertical migration of thermal structure in freshwater thermoclines is investigated with theory and observations. The theory is for the wind-forced internal oscillations of a viscous, nonrotating, ...
The Dynamics of Oceanic Fronts. Part II:Shelf Water Structure Due to Freshwater Discharge
Shelf Water Structure Freshwater Discharge Oceanic Fronts
2009/2/10
In Part I of this series, a framework was introduced for the study of oceanic frontal dynamics. The dynamics was studied by posing an initial value problem, starting with a near-surface discharge of b...
Monthly mean oceanic heat storage rates (QT) for the upper 200 meters of the Gulf of Mexico are calculated directly from multi-annual vertical temperature data. The annual march of QT exhibits a minim...
Mass, Heat and Freshwater Fluxes in the South Indian Ocean
Mass Heat Freshwater Fluxes South Indian Ocean
2009/1/13
Six hydrographic sections were used to examine the circulation and property fluxes in the South Indian Ocean from 10° to 32°S. The calculations were made by applying an inverse method to the data. In ...
Heat and Freshwater Budgets of the Caribbean Sea with Revised Estimates for the Central American Seas
Oceanic heat storage rates Revised Estimates Caribbean Sea Central American Seas
2009/1/8
Monthly multi-annual mean heat budgets are calculated for the Caribbean Sea; previous results from the Gulf of Mexico are included to portray fields for the combined Central American seas. Oceanic hea...
Annual and Interannual Variation of the Freshwater Budget in the Tropical Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea
intertropical convergence zone Caribbean Sea Tropical Atlantic Ocean
2008/12/27
Annual and interannual variations of the moisture and freshwater budgets are examined in the tropical Atlantic Ocean and the Caribbean Sea. The seasonal moisture budget (E–P) is calculated by estimati...
Two striking empirical facts represent a starting point of the discussion: (i) vertical temperature profile in a thermocline, a region of supercritical stability adjoining a mixed layer, proves to be ...
The global distribution of freshwater transport in the ocean is presented, based on an integration point at Bering Strait, which connects the Pacific and Atlantic oceans via the Artic Ocean. Through B...
Real Freshwater Flux as a Natural Boundary Condition for the Salinity Balance and Thermohaline Circulation Forced by Evaporation and Precipitation
Freshwater flux Salinity Balance Natural Boundary Thermohaline Circulation
2008/12/19
Freshwater flux used as a natural boundary condition for the salinity balance is applied to a primitive equation model of the oceanic general circulation. Instead of the relaxation condition or the vi...
Interdecadal Variability Driven by Mismatch between Surface Flux Forcing and Oceanic Freshwater/Heat Transport
Interdecadal Variability Driven Surface Flux Forcing Oceanic Freshwater Transport
2008/12/12
The author describes a series of mechanistic experiments showing the generation of interdecadal variability in the Bryan-Cox ocean general circulation model driven by a constant two-dimensional freshw...
Competing Roles of Heat and Freshwater Flux in Forcing Thermohaline Oscillations
Freshwater Flux oceanic general circulation model Thermohaline Oscillations
2008/12/12
The physical mechanisms causing century-scale Southern Ocean thermohaline oscillations in a primitive equation oceanic general circulation model are described. The oscillations have been shown to occu...
Oceanic Freshwater Budget and Transport as Derived from Satellite Radiometric Data
Oceanic Freshwater Budget Satellite Radiometric Data
2008/11/13
Blended satellite–ship evaporation and SSM/I retrieved precipitation fields are used to compute oceanic freshwater budget (FWB) and transport (FWT) over a 3-year period (1988–90). In order to valida...
The heat and freshwater transports through the Strait of Bab el Mandab, connecting the Red Sea with the open ocean, are reviewed and used to test air–sea fluxes from a revised version of the Comprehen...
