Abyssal Upwelling In The Indian Ocean: Radiocarbon Diagnostics, Ashwanth Srinivasan, Claes G. H. Rooth, Zafer Top, D. B. Olson Jan 2000

Abyssal Upwelling In The Indian Ocean: Radiocarbon Diagnostics, Ashwanth Srinivasan, Claes G. H. Rooth, Zafer Top, D. B. Olson

Journal of Marine Research

The GEOSECS Indian Ocean radiocarbon and carbonate chemistry data set are used to estimate the mean upwelling transport of bottom water in the Indian Ocean north of 30S. The study uses an "adjusted radiocarbon concentration" which is corrected for the effects of addition of particulate radiocarbon to the deep ocean. The cross-basin uniformity in the vertical gradients of "adjusted radiocarbon" allows quantification of vertical transfer processes using horizontally averaged concentration and fluxes. The estimated total upwelling flux, north of 30S, is 8.2 ± 1.5 × 106 m3 s-1. The mean upwelling velocity and the vertical diffusivity, …


Low-Frequency Variability On The Western Flanks Of The Grand Banks, Nelson G. Hogg Jan 2000

Low-Frequency Variability On The Western Flanks Of The Grand Banks, Nelson G. Hogg

Journal of Marine Research

An array consisting of 21 current meters on nine moorings was set on the western flanks of the Grand Banks in August 1995 and recovered about two years later. The purpose was to explore the possibility that this might be a region of anomalously high topographic wave activity because the local topography so altered the dispersion relation for these waves that they could couple more readily to eastward-moving Gulf Stream meanders. Eddy kinetic energy is, indeed, found to be higher here than elsewhere in the region but only at periods shorter than about 10 days. At longer periods energy in …


Properties Of Vertical Current Shear Across Stratification In The North Sea, Hans Van Haren Jan 2000

Properties Of Vertical Current Shear Across Stratification In The North Sea, Hans Van Haren

Journal of Marine Research

Observations from the central North Sea show that, as soon as thermal stratification becomes established by solar insolation in the spring, the vertical smoothly varying horizontal current structure observed in winter becomes distorted, with strongest vertical shear coincident with the strongest buoyancy gradients (thermoclines). This shear is predominant at the local inertial frequency following strong wind-forcing or when the thermocline thickness is relatively large, and the semidiurnal tidal frequency otherwise. Although the currents at these frequencies have a completely different character, being circularly polarized and mode-1 at the inertial frequency and almost rectilinear and barotropic at the tidal frequency, their …

Fortnightly Modulation Of The Estuarine Circulation In Juan De Fuca Strait, Diane Masson, Patrick F. Cummins Jan 2000

Fortnightly Modulation Of The Estuarine Circulation In Juan De Fuca Strait, Diane Masson, Patrick F. Cummins

Journal of Marine Research

Riverine discharge into the Strait of Georgia sets up a well-defined estuarine circulation within Juan de Fuca Strait, the main path for the freshwater outflow to the continental shelf. At the landward end of Juan de Fuca Strait, the water flows through narrow channels in which strong tidal currents are known to induce significant mixing of the water column, and a spring-neap modulation of the estuarine exchange. A three-dimensional prognostic numerical model has been developed to study the circulation around Vancouver Island, British Columbia. In a series of simulations, the estuarine circulation within Juan de Fuca Strait is established by …


Trajectories Of Sinking Particles And The Catchment Areas Above Sediment Traps In The Northeast Atlantic, Joanna Waniek, Wolfgang Koeve, Ralf D. Prien Jan 2000

Trajectories Of Sinking Particles And The Catchment Areas Above Sediment Traps In The Northeast Atlantic, Joanna Waniek, Wolfgang Koeve, Ralf D. Prien

Journal of Marine Research

A Lagrangian analysis of particles sinking through a velocity field observed by Eulerian frame measurements was used to evaluate the effects of horizontal advection and particle sinking speed on particle fluxes as measured by moored sediment traps. Characteristics of the statistical funnel above moored deep-ocean sediment traps at the German JGOFS quasi-time series station at 47N, 20W (Biotrans site) were determined. The analysis suggests that the distance and direction between a given sediment trap and the region at the surface where the particles were produced depends on the mean sinking velocity of the particles, the horizontal velocity field above the …

Floats And Ƒ/H, J. H. Lacasce Jan 2000

Floats And Ƒ/H, J. H. Lacasce

Journal of Marine Research

The sensitivity of oceanic float dispersion to f/H, where H is a spatially filtered representation of the water depth, is examined with floats from the Atlantic and Pacific oceans. The first and second moments of the displacements relative to f/H were found and compared to those for zonal and meridional displacements. In all cases, the moments relative to f/H display equal or greater anisotropy than those relative to geographical coordinates, suggesting a preferred tendency for spreading along f/H. In regions where the topography is flat (at the equator, in the …

Political Correctness, Stephen Morris Dec 1999

Political Correctness, Stephen Morris

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

An informed advisor wishes to convey her valuable information to an uninformed decision maker with identical preferences. Thus she has a current incentive to truthfully reveal her information. But if the decision maker thinks the advisor might be biased in favor of one decision, and the advisor does not wish to be thought to be biased, the advisor has a reputational incentive to lie. If the advisor is sufficiently concerned about her reputation, no information is conveyed in equilibrium. In a repeated version of this game, the advisor will care.
