On The Transport And Modification Of Antarctic Bottom Water In The Vema Channel, Nelson Hogg, Pierre Biscaye, Wilford Gardner, William J. Schmitz Jr.

Journal of Marine Research

The Verna Channel is a deep passage across the Rio Grande Rise in the South Atlantic through which Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) must flow on its way northward from the Argentine Basin to the Brazil Basin and eventuafly into the North Atlantic….

Response Of The Western Equatorial Atlantic Ocean To An Annual Wind Cycle, Eli Joel Katz, Silvia Garzoli

Journal of Marine Research

From the Global Weather Experiment in 1979, four one-year data records are juxtaposed which simultaneously describe the wind stress, thermocline depth, surface current and transport of the Equatorial Undercurrent in the western equatorial Atlantic….

Walter Hoxton's 1735 Description Of The Gulf Stream, P. L. Richardson

Journal of Marine Research

In 1735 Walter Hoxton, on his chart of Chesapeake Bay, gave an early and accurate description of the western Gulf Stream. Hoxton's pioneering measurements by ship-drift of the mean limits, direction and speed of the Gulf Stream were the first to show that the Stream is a narrow, swift boundary current which leaves the coast near Cape Hatteras. and turns eastward near 38N latitude. The Hoxton description of the Stream antedates by 35 years the Franklin-Folger chart of the Stream.

Finestructure And Microstructure In The North Atlantic Current, Raymond W. Schmitt, Daniel T. Georgi

Journal of Marine Research

The relationship between intrusive finestructure and optical microstructure was studied by simultaneous CTD Tow-yos and deployments of the shadowgraph profiler SCIMP. Strong thermohaline intrusions, 5 to 50 m thick, were tracked laterally for 5 to 10 km in the front associated with the North Atlantic Current....

The Deep Water Of The Central Indian Basin, Bruce A. Warren

Journal of Marine Research

Two deep CTD sections were occupied by U.S.N.S. Wilkes in the Central Indian Basin during April 1979, one across the basin along Lat. 12S, and the other from Lat. 12S to 1N along Longs. 88-89E. These observations, in combination with other (mostly recent) data, demonstrate a two-layer structure in the deep water of the basin. The upper deep water (2000-3800 m) is supplied from a mid-depth western-boundary current flowing directly northward from the Antarctic along the eastern flank of the Central Indian Ridge....

Maternal Plasma 6-Keto Prostaglandin F1Α In Preeclampsia, Augusta Simpson Roth

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

The possibility of decreased prostacyclin (PGI2) in preeclampsia-eclampsia is currently being studies by several laboratories. Because of prostacyclin's various actions (platelet aggregation inhabitation, vasodilation, stimulation of renin release, and possible inhibition of the hypertensive effects of angiotensin II), an increase in the peripheral activity of this chemical could explain much of the altered physiology of normal pregnancy. A relative decrease in peripheral activity could tie together the various pathophysiological findings of preeclampsia-eclampsia. Therefore, plasma 6-keto, PGF1α, the stable nonenzymatic metabolite of prostacyclin, was measured in women with preeclampsia, and in those women of various gestational ages having a normal pregnancy. …

On The Structure Of The Deep Gulf Stream, R. M. Hendry

Journal of Marine Research

Tlk zonal and temporal structure of the mean and low-frequency flow beneath the Gulf Stream at 55W is explored in an analysis of 17 months of current and temperature measurements at 4000 m depth….

Variability In The Central Equatorial Indian Ocean, Part Ii: Oceanic Heat And Turbulent Energy Balances, Michael J. Mcphaden

Journal of Marine Research

Heat and turbulent energy balances in the central equatorial Indian Ocean are examined using over two years (January 1973-May 1975) of simultaneous oceanic and atmospheric measurements from the island of Gan (00°41S, 73°10'E)….

Growth And Predation Activity At Deep-Sea Hydrothermal Vents Along The Galápagos Rift, Donald C. Rhoads, Richard A. Lutz, Robert M. Cerrato, Eugene C. Revelas

Journal of Marine Research

Growth rates of unclassified mussels collected from hydrothermal vents on the Pacific Ocean (2500 m) are among the highest recorded for deep-sea species. Mature mussels have mean growth rates of about 1 cm yr-1 which are comparable to growth rates of shallow water mussels....

Sources Of Eddy Energy In The Gulf Stream Recirculation Region, Harry L. Bryden

Journal of Marine Research

Array measurements of current and temperature made for 15 months in the main thermodine of the Gulf Stream recirculation region near 31N, 69° 30'W are analyzed to determine the energy sources for low-frequency fluctuations or eddies and the effect of these eddies on the mean circulation in the region....

Oceanic Distribution Of Ammonium-Oxidizing Bacteria Determined By Immunofluorescent Assay, B. B. Ward

Journal of Marine Research

Marine ammonium-oxidizing bacteria in seawater were enumerated by means of immunofluorescent assays developed for Nitrosococcus oceanus and Nitrosomonas marina. Samples were collected from the coastal waters off the states of Washington and California, from the central North Atlantic and northeast Pacific Oceans, and from Chesapeake Bay....

North Atlantic Circulation And Water Mass Formation, Valentine Worthington

Journal of Marine Research

When I returned to Woods Hole after serving in the Navy from 1943 to 1946, I worked as a technician for F. C. Fuglister during his classic descriptions of Gulf Stream meanders and Gulf Stream ring formation. Our work resulted in a joint paper (Fuglister and Worthington, 1951) on a multiple ship survey of the Gulf Stream. It also resulted in my promotion to the scientific staff in September 1951....

Observations Of A Barotropic Planetary Wave In The Western North Atlantic, James F. Price, H. Thomas Rossby

Journal of Marine Research

SOFAR float observations from 1300 m depth are used to describe a major feature of the large-scale, subthermocline velocity field observed in the western North Atlantic (31 N, 70W), during the 1978 POLYMODE Local Dynamics Experiment (LDE). The two-month-long intensive phase of the LDE was dominated by a highly polarized, oscillatory flow which had many of the characteristics of a barotropic planetary wave....

A Theory Of Wind-Driven Circulation. I. Mid-Ocean Gyres, Peter B. Rhines, William R. Young

Journal of Marine Research

A theory of the wind-driven ocean circulation is presented in which the key feature is strong deformation of interior density layers and consequent production of closed geostrophic-contours by the flow itself. The constraint imposed on the subsurface flow by the imposition of a no flux condition where a geostrophic contour strikes a coastal boundary is thus removed. Within regions where the geostrophic contours close the potential vorticity is uniform....

The Influence Of The Meandering Guiana Current On Surface Conditions Near Barbados - Temporal Variations Of Trichodesmium (Cyanophyta) And Other Plankton, Gary A. Borstad

Journal of Marine Research

The temporal fluctuations of the surface layer Trichodesmium (Cyanophyta) populations off Barbados which occur at roughly three-month intervals are shown to be accompanied by in-phase fluctuations of both the numbers and species composition of other phytoplankton and surface dwelling zooplankton....

Seasonal Variation In Meridional Overturning And Poleward Heat Transport In The Atlantic And Pacific Oceans: A Model Study, Kirk Bryan

Journal of Marine Research

Numerical solutions for a model of the World Ocean are analyzed to illustrate the important changes in the meridional circulation of the ocean induced by seasonal changes in wind stress. Seasonal variations of meridional circulation and associated changes in poleward heat transport predicted by the model are most important in the Pacific where the background thermohaline circulation is relatively weak....

A New Genus And Species Of Sphaeromatidae (Crustacea: Isopoda) With Experiments And Observations On Its Reproductive Biology, Interspecific Interactions And Color Polymorphisms, Leo W. Buss, Ernest W. Iverson

Postilla

The new genus, Paraleptosphaeroma, is distinguished from the morphologically similar genus Leptosphaeroma by the fusion of the pleonites, the shape of the peni, the attachment of appendix masculina, and the presence or the absence of an endopod on the first pleopod. The term cingula is introduced to refer to lateral margins fringed with setae and the distinction is drawn between setal and membranous forms of the cingula. Paraleptsphaeroma glynni (sp nov.) occurs on cobble in tidal pools and is associated with three sessile species, two bryozoans and a coralline alga. Experiments demonstrate the isopod to be a sequential hermaphrodite with …
