The Theory Of Money, Martin Shubik Apr 2000

The Theory Of Money, Martin Shubik

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

Fiat money is a creation of both the state and society. Its value is supported by expectations which are conditioned by the dynamics of trust in government, the socio-economic structure and by outside events such as wars, plagues or political unrest. The micro-management of a dynamic economy is not far removed in difficulty from the micro-management of the weather. However, money and the financial institutions and instruments of a modern economy provide the means to influence expectations and bound behavior. Paper money emerges as a virtual commodity. The dynamics of the economy permits it to serve as an imaginary gold. …

Family History, Brca1/Brca2 Status, And Local Recurrence In Conservatively Treated Breast Cancer Patients, Elizabeth Virginia Harrold (Ratchford) Mar 2000

Family History, Brca1/Brca2 Status, And Local Recurrence In Conservatively Treated Breast Cancer Patients, Elizabeth Virginia Harrold (Ratchford)

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

This study explores the relationship among young age at diagnosis, family history, BRCA1/2 status, and ipsilateral breast tumor relapse (IBTR) in conservatively treated breast cancer patients. First, age was examined as a prognostic factor for IBTR using clinical information from 984 patients in a computerized database. Second, 52 case patients who had experienced an IBTR were matched to 52 control patients from the database to determine if IBTR was associated with family history. For these 104 patients, detailed family history interviews were conducted; all data were recorded in a pedigree. A genetic counselor blind to the clinical histories then scored …

Generation Of Strong Mesoscale Eddies By Weak Ocean Gyres, Michael A. Spall Jan 2000

Generation Of Strong Mesoscale Eddies By Weak Ocean Gyres, Michael A. Spall

Journal of Marine Research

The generation of strong mesoscale variability through instability of the large-scale circulation in the interior of oceanic gyres is addressed. While previous studies have shown that eddies generated from weakly sheared zonal flows are generally weak, the present results demonstrate that weakly sheared meridional flows typical of wind-forced gyres can generate very strong mesoscale variability. Meridional flows are effective at generating strong eddies because the reduced influence of the planetary vorticity gradient allows the potential energy stored in the zonal potential vorticity gradient to be converted to eddy kinetic energy. A simple scaling theory based on a balance between turbulent …

The Linkage Between Upper Circumpolar Deep Water (Ucdw) And Phytoplankton Assemblages On The West Antarctic Peninsula Continental Shelf, Barbara B. Prézelin, Eileen E. Hofmann, Claudia Mengelt, John H. Klinck Jan 2000

The Linkage Between Upper Circumpolar Deep Water (Ucdw) And Phytoplankton Assemblages On The West Antarctic Peninsula Continental Shelf, Barbara B. Prézelin, Eileen E. Hofmann, Claudia Mengelt, John H. Klinck

Journal of Marine Research

Intrusion of Upper Circumpolar Deep Water (UCDW), which was derived from the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), onto the western Antarctic Peninsula (WAP) shelf region in January 1993 provided a reservoir of nutrient-rich, warmer water below 150 m that subsequently upwelled into the upper water column. Four sites, at which topographically-induced upwelling of UCDW occurred, were identified in a 50 km by 400 km band along the outer WAP continental shelf. One additional site at which wind-driven upwelling occurred was also identified. Diatom-dominated phytoplankton assemblages were always associated with a topographically-induced upwelling site. Such phytoplankton communities were not detected at any …

On The Influence Of Bottom Topography And The Deep Western Boundary Current On Gulf Stream Separation, Claire E. Tansley, David P. Marshall Jan 2000

On The Influence Of Bottom Topography And The Deep Western Boundary Current On Gulf Stream Separation, Claire E. Tansley, David P. Marshall

Journal of Marine Research

The Gulf Stream separates abruptly from the North American coastline at Cape Hatteras. The absence of significant seasonal and interannual variability in the separation point, compared with that of other separating boundary currents, suggests that Gulf Stream separation is locally controlled. In this paper we consider the possible influence of bottom topography and the Deep Western Boundary Current (DWBC), which descends underneath the Gulf Stream at Cape Hatteras. The path of the DWBC is strongly constrained by bottom topography. At Cape Hatteras, the continental shelf widens and the DWBC is forced to swing offshore and pass beneath the Gulf Stream. …

A Baroclinic Western Boundary Current Over A Continental Slope, Rupert Ford Jan 2000

A Baroclinic Western Boundary Current Over A Continental Slope, Rupert Ford

Journal of Marine Research

Baroclinic flow over a western continental slope is investigated using a simple model in which inertia is completely neglected and the temperature of the ocean depends only on horizontal position. Solutions of this model are also solutions of the three-dimensional equations without inertia. This model is arguably the simplest model in which the Joint Effect of Baroclinicity and Relief (JEBAR) can affect the mass transport on the slope. Offshore, we suppose that a classical double-gyre circulation exists, in which the subpolar gyre is colder than the subtropical gyre. Using asymptotic expansions based on small viscosity and small thermal diffusivity, we …

The Role Of Biologically-Enhanced Pore Water Transport In Early Diagenesis: An Example From Carbonate Sediments In The Vicinity Of North Key Harbor, Dry Tortugas National Park, Florida, Yoko Furukawa, Samuel J. Bentley, Alan M. Shiller, Dawn L. Lavoie, Philippe Van Cappellen Jan 2000

The Role Of Biologically-Enhanced Pore Water Transport In Early Diagenesis: An Example From Carbonate Sediments In The Vicinity Of North Key Harbor, Dry Tortugas National Park, Florida, Yoko Furukawa, Samuel J. Bentley, Alan M. Shiller, Dawn L. Lavoie, Philippe Van Cappellen

Journal of Marine Research

Biologically enhanced pore water irrigation affects the course of early diagenesis in shallow marine sediments, as illustrated here for the carbonate sediments from North Key Harbor, Dry Tortugas National Park, Florida. Whereas macrofaunal activity at the study site extends approximately 15 cm below the water-sediment interface, measured O2 microprofiles only show O2 penetration to depths of a few mm. This apparent discrepancy can be explained by considering the 3-D O2 distribution in the burrowed sediments. Calculations based on an idealized tube model for burrow irrigation show that measureable O2 concentrations are limited to the immediate vicinity …

The Influence Of Deposit-Feeding On Chlorophyll-A Degradation In Coastal Marine Sediments, Anitra E. Ingalls, Robert C. Aller, Cindy Lee, Ming-Yi Sun Jan 2000

The Influence Of Deposit-Feeding On Chlorophyll-A Degradation In Coastal Marine Sediments, Anitra E. Ingalls, Robert C. Aller, Cindy Lee, Ming-Yi Sun

Journal of Marine Research

To determine how macrofaunal activity affects rates and mechanisms of Chlorophyll-a (Chl-a) decomposition, we measured Chl-a concentrations during laboratory incubations of surface sediment with varying abundances of a subsurface deposit-feeder, Yoldia limatula. Decomposition patterns of Chl-a in sediment cores with and without a layer of algal-enriched sediment added to the surface were compared. Decomposition rate constants, kd, were calculated from the loss of reactive Chl-a and further quantified using a nonsteady state, depth-dependent, reaction-diffusion model. Values of kd decreased approximately exponentially with depth and were directly proportional to the number of …

Feeding Selectivity And Rapid Particle Processing By Deep-Sea Megafaunal Deposit Feeders: A 234th Tracer Approach, Robert J. Miller, Craig R. Smith, David J. Demaster, William L. Fornes Jan 2000

Feeding Selectivity And Rapid Particle Processing By Deep-Sea Megafaunal Deposit Feeders: A 234th Tracer Approach, Robert J. Miller, Craig R. Smith, David J. Demaster, William L. Fornes

Journal of Marine Research

Deposit-feeding megafauna occur in virtually all deep-sea environments, yet their feeding selectivity and particle processing rates are poorly known. Excess 234Th activity is commonly used asa geochemical tracer for recently settled (, 100-d old) particles in the quiescent deep sea, but it has rarely been applied to the study of deposit feeders. To explore the selectivity and rates of megafaunal deposit feeding, we compared excess 234Th activities in the gut contents of deposit feeders from Santa Catalina Basin (SCB) (~ 1200 m depth) and the Hawaiian slope (~ 1680 m) to the activity of surface sediments and, in SCB, to …

Detection Of Bay Of Bengal Eddies From Topex And In Situ Observations, A. K. S. Gopalan, V. V. Gopala Krishna, M. M. Ali, Rashmi Sharma Jan 2000

Detection Of Bay Of Bengal Eddies From Topex And In Situ Observations, A. K. S. Gopalan, V. V. Gopala Krishna, M. M. Ali, Rashmi Sharma

Journal of Marine Research

Oceanic eddies have warm or cold temperatures and high or low sea surface height (SSH) at the center depending upon the direction of rotation. However, since the Bay of Bengal waters are highly stratified, sea surface temperature (SST) gradients may not be detectable even though the subsurface temperature sections and the SSH show prominent eddy signatures. In this investigation, SSH observations from TOPEX altimeter data and the expendable bathy thermograph (XBT) temperature sections along the Madras-Andamans track have been analyzed to study the Bay of Bengal eddies. Several cyclonic and anticyclonic eddies are identified from the TOPEX altimeter observations. These …

Spatial Variations In Nutrient Utilization, Production And Diagenesis In The Sediments Of A Coastal Upwelling Regime (Nw Africa): Implications For The Paleoceanographic Record, Philippe Martinez, Philippe Bertrand, Stephen E. Calvert, Thomas F. Pedersen, Graham B. Shimmield, Elisabeth Lallier-Vergès, Michel R. Fontugne Jan 2000

Spatial Variations In Nutrient Utilization, Production And Diagenesis In The Sediments Of A Coastal Upwelling Regime (Nw Africa): Implications For The Paleoceanographic Record, Philippe Martinez, Philippe Bertrand, Stephen E. Calvert, Thomas F. Pedersen, Graham B. Shimmield, Elisabeth Lallier-Vergès, Michel R. Fontugne

Journal of Marine Research

A biogeochemical study of recent (multicores) sediments of the northwest African slope was undertaken to understand how the sediment composition varies with respect to the location of core sites relative to the centers of coastal upwelling, and how this has affected the palaeoceanographic record. Sedimentary organic carbon contents are inversely correlated with the nitrogen isotopic composition (δ15N), high Corganic concentrations and low δ15N occurring at proximal (shallow) sites and the opposite at distal (deep) ones. These spatial differences are interpreted to result from higher relative nutrient utilization and a decrease in production as waters are advected offshore from the …

Relative Dispersion In The Subsurface North Atlantic, J. H. Lacasce, A. Bower Jan 2000

Relative Dispersion In The Subsurface North Atlantic, J. H. Lacasce, A. Bower

Journal of Marine Research

Pair statistics are calculated for subsurface floats in the North Atlantic. The relative diffusivity (the derivative of the mean square particle separation) is approximately constant at large scales in both eastern and western basins, though the implied scale of the energy-containing eddies is greater in the west. But the behavior at times soon after pair deployment is quite different in the two basins; in the west the diffusivity grows approximately as distance to the 4/3 power, consistent with an inverse turbulent cascade of energy (or possibly of mixing superimposed on a mean shear), but in the east the diffusivity grows …

Islands As Eddy Splitters, Harper Lightfoot Simmons, Doron Nof Jan 2000

Islands As Eddy Splitters, Harper Lightfoot Simmons, Doron Nof

Journal of Marine Research

Previous theoretical work has shown that, in an unbounded domain, anticyclones are prohibited from splitting on their own due to limitations imposed by the conservation of angular momentum. By explicitly considering the role of angular momentum exchange between eddies and boundaries (neglected by previous theories), splitting criteria for an anticyclonic lens colliding with a long and thin island are established analytically. The inviscid analytical model consists of an isolated patch of fluid in a reduced gravity regime. Nonlinear analytical solutions are constructed by connecting the initial and final states using conserved quantities (integrated angular momentum, vorticity and mass) and the …

Distributions Of Top, Ton And Toc In The North Pacific Subtropical Gyre: Implications For Nutrient Supply In The Surface Ocean And Remineralization In The Upper Thermocline, Jeffrey Abell, Steve Emerson, Paul Renaud Jan 2000

Distributions Of Top, Ton And Toc In The North Pacific Subtropical Gyre: Implications For Nutrient Supply In The Surface Ocean And Remineralization In The Upper Thermocline, Jeffrey Abell, Steve Emerson, Paul Renaud

Journal of Marine Research

We report measurements of total organic phosphorus, nitrogen, and carbon (TOP, TON, and TOC) along a meridional transect in the eastern subtropical North Pacific. In the surface waters, TOP and TON comprise 83% and 98% of the total dissolved phosphorus and nitrogen pools, respectively. Between the equatorial region and the subtropical gyre, there is a distinct gradient in surface TOP of about 0.25 µM, but very little gradient in TON. TOC increases by nearly 30 µM across the same region. Meridional advection of TOP along its gradient via Ekman transport can provide 40-80% of the phosphorus necessary to supply present …
