Climatologically Forced Coherence Between Diverse Juvenile Populations In The Virginia Tributaries To The Chesapeake Bay, Thomas C. Mosca Iii
Climatologically Forced Coherence Between Diverse Juvenile Populations In The Virginia Tributaries To The Chesapeake Bay, Thomas C. Mosca Iii
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
Long term trends in juvenile recruitment of oyster, bluecrab, and 24 species of finfish in a large temperate estuary (lower Chesapeake Bay, USA) are coherent across the three major tributaries (the Virginia rivers James, York, and Rappahannock). The driving force for these long term trends is geographically large in scale. Anomalous winters in the mid 1970's, with the warmest years on record followed immediately by the coldest, caused a severe perturbation in population dynamics. The extreme conditions caused the system to shift, with recruitment patterns following temperatures by a one year lag. Following this anomalous episode, smoothed mean winter water …
Response Modes Of The Lower Chesapeake Bay Wave Field, Katherine L. Farnsworth
Response Modes Of The Lower Chesapeake Bay Wave Field, Katherine L. Farnsworth
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
An extensive wave monitoring program was conducted in the lower Chesapeake Bay from fall 1989 through spring 1995. From October 23, 1992 - April 20, 1993 the Virginia Institute of Marine Science deployed an aluminum tetrapod containing wave and current sensing and recording equipment in the Thimble Shoal region of the lower Chesapeake Bay. Measurements were made in half hour bursts every three hours to document the area’s dynamic wave characteristics. It was shown previously by Boon et al. (1990 - 1996) that a bimodal frequency distribution of waves in the Thimble Shoal region existed, which was not seen in …

On The Circulation Of The Northern North Sea And The Patagonian Shelf, Pablo D. Glorioso
On The Circulation Of The Northern North Sea And The Patagonian Shelf, Pablo D. Glorioso
Dissertations, Theses, and Masters Projects
The Northern North Sea and the Patagonian Shelf have similar characteristics, and their circulation is determined by strong tidal regimes, significant wind-driven flow, and by density gradients to a lesser degree. The influence of oceanic currents is notable in the Patagonian Shelf, where the Falkland Current flows along the shelf edge, but less important in the North Sea. While the North Sea is perhaps the most studied body of water in the world, the circulation of the Patagonian Shelf have remained fairly unknown. This study presents evidence of near-inertial oscillations in the Northern North Sea, not reported previously, derived from …
