Relationship Between Ferromanganese Nodule Compositions And Sedimentation In A Small Survey Area Of The Equatorial Pacific, S. E. Calvert, N. B. Price, G. R. Heath, T. C. Moore Jr. Jan 1978

Relationship Between Ferromanganese Nodule Compositions And Sedimentation In A Small Survey Area Of The Equatorial Pacific, S. E. Calvert, N. B. Price, G. R. Heath, T. C. Moore Jr.

Journal of Marine Research

The bulk chemical compositions of ferromanganese nodules recovered from 14 of 38 sediment cores collected from a 230 km2 area of abyssal hill topography in the northern equatorial Pacific (8°20'N; 153W; regional depth 5000m) vary nonrandornly between fairly wide limits. The nodules have Mn/Fe ratios ranging from 2.60 to 5.38 and all samples contain todorokite and 8-MnO2. The variation in the Mn/Fe ratio is governed by the total Fe contents of the nodules; Mn varies to a much smaller extent. Cu and Ni contents average about 1% and vary independently of the Mn contents....


Model Of World Ocean Circulation: Iii. Thermally And Wind Driven, George Veronis Jan 1978

Model Of World Ocean Circulation: Iii. Thermally And Wind Driven, George Veronis

Journal of Marine Research

A model of world ocean circulation driven by wind-stresses and differential heating is developed for a two-layer ocean with idealized boundaries and constant depth. The principal focus of the present study is the determination of the magnitudes and locations of localized sources and sinks of upper-layer water. The effect of differential heating is parameterized here by a uniform upwelling of deep water through the interface (thermocline)....


The Tide In Coastal Waters, Alfred C. Redfield Jan 1978

The Tide In Coastal Waters, Alfred C. Redfield

Journal of Marine Research

The tide in many straits and embayments between New York and the Bay of Fundy may be described by theoretical equations based on the interference of a progressive wave entering at one end of the reach with, in the case of straits, a second wave entering at the opposite end or, in the case of embayments, a second wave arising from the reflection of this wave from a barrier at the head of the embayment....


Three-Dimensional Modeling Of Tracers In The Deep Pacific Ocean: I. Salinity And Oxygen, Manuel E. Fiadeiro, Harmon Craig Jan 1978

Three-Dimensional Modeling Of Tracers In The Deep Pacific Ocean: I. Salinity And Oxygen, Manuel E. Fiadeiro, Harmon Craig

Journal of Marine Research

A numerical model of the deep circulation using weighted-mean differences in three dimensions has been developed and applied to the distribution of tracers in the Deep Pacific Ocean. It is found that the Stommel-Arons model of the thermohaline circulation applied to the threedimensional distribution of salinity and oxygen explains reasonably well the general features of these distributions with the following parameters...


Longitudinal Dispersion In A Partially Mixed Estuary, Robert E. Wilson, Akira Okubo Jan 1978

Longitudinal Dispersion In A Partially Mixed Estuary, Robert E. Wilson, Akira Okubo

Journal of Marine Research

Within a partially mixed estuary both the tidal and the nontidal density-induced circulation exhibits substantial vertical shear. The interaction of this current shear with turbulent mixing across the vertical density gradient contributes to the longitudinal (alongstream) spread of a contaminant introduced into the estuary. A dye tracer experiment conducted in the lower York River Estuary provides abundant evidence for the importance of this "shear effect" to longitudinal dispersion....


Chemical Fluxes From A Sediment Trap Experiment In The Deep Sargasso Sea, D. W. Spencer, P. G. Brewer, A. Fleer, S. Honjo, S. Krishnaswami, Y. Nozaki Jan 1978

Chemical Fluxes From A Sediment Trap Experiment In The Deep Sargasso Sea, D. W. Spencer, P. G. Brewer, A. Fleer, S. Honjo, S. Krishnaswami, Y. Nozaki

Journal of Marine Research

A pair of sediment traps, each with an opening of 1.5 m2, were deployed at 5367m in 5581m of water at 31° 34'N, 55° 03'W in the Sargasso Sea. The traps were located within the bottom nepheloid layer, which, at this site, extends from about 4900m to the bottom. The two traps collected different amounts of material, one collecting 3.45g, and the other 6.90g....


Sedimentation Of Materials In The Sargasso Sea At A 5,367 M Deep Station, Susumu Honjo Jan 1978

Sedimentation Of Materials In The Sargasso Sea At A 5,367 M Deep Station, Susumu Honjo

Journal of Marine Research

A sediment trap array was deployed in the Southern Söhm abyssal plain, Sargasso Sea, for 75 days beginning on October 20, 1976. The sediment trap consisted of two separate cones with hydrodynamically designed honeycomb collectors with a total collecting area of 3 m2. The results of an investigation of the sediment collected at 5,363 m (114 m above the bottom) are reported in this paper....


Long Term Constraints On The Global Marine Carbonate System, Michael L. Bender, David W. Graham Jan 1978

Long Term Constraints On The Global Marine Carbonate System, Michael L. Bender, David W. Graham

Journal of Marine Research

As a result of the interaction between biological cycles and the abyssal circulation, the modem North Pacific Ocean bas a lower degree of calcite saturation (Ω) and a shallower carbonate compensation depth (and lysocline) than does the North Atlantic….


The Equation Of State Of Seawater Determined From Sound Speeds, Chen-Tung Chen, Frank J. Millero Jan 1978

The Equation Of State Of Seawater Determined From Sound Speeds, Chen-Tung Chen, Frank J. Millero

Journal of Marine Research

The PVT properties of seawater were calculated from the sound speed data of Chen and Millero (1977d) over the range of 0 to 40%. salinity, 0 to 40°C, and 0 to 1000 bars….

Bulletin of the Peabody Museum of Natural History

The Gastrochaenacea are a compact group of mechanically and chemically boring bivalves that comprise a major but commonly overlooked element of tropical and subtropical endolithic faunas….

Nitrate Reductase Activity In The Subsurface Waters Of The Peru Current, T. T. Packard, R. C. Dugdale, J. J. Goering, R. T. Barber Jan 1978

Nitrate Reductase Activity In The Subsurface Waters Of The Peru Current, T. T. Packard, R. C. Dugdale, J. J. Goering, R. T. Barber

Journal of Marine Research

In March 1976 and 1977, nitrate reductase, nitrate, nitrite, and oxygen were measured between depths of 30 and 250m in the subsurface waters overlying the Peruvian continental shelf and shelf edge at 15S latitude. Oxygen concentrations of less than 1 ml/1 began between 20 and 30m in both years. The oxygen deficient waters extended to the bottom on the shelf and to 440m at the shelf edge....


Biogeochemistry Of Tube-Dwellings: A Study Of The Sedentary Polychaete Amphitrite Ornata (Leidy), Robert C. Aller, Josephine Y. Yingst Jan 1978

Biogeochemistry Of Tube-Dwellings: A Study Of The Sedentary Polychaete Amphitrite Ornata (Leidy), Robert C. Aller, Josephine Y. Yingst

Journal of Marine Research

Most studies of near interface sediments assume that chemically and biologicalJy important properties are stratified vertically in a deposit. Sampling patterns reflect this assumption and little attention has been paid to three-dimensional heterogeneity. In this study the effects of burrow structures formed by Amphitrite ornata on the distribution of physical, chemical, and biological characteristics of a deposit are investigated....


The Circulation Near The Head Of Chesapeake Bay, Alan J. Elliott, Dong-Ping Wang, Donald W. Pritchard Jan 1978

The Circulation Near The Head Of Chesapeake Bay, Alan J. Elliott, Dong-Ping Wang, Donald W. Pritchard

Journal of Marine Research

Three-month long current records are examined for a position near the head of the Chesapeake Bay. For time scales longer than 5 days the flow was determined by the strength of the Susquehanna discharge. A major event was Tropical Storm Eloise which occurred near the middle of the observation period and whose influence dominated the current spectra....


A Mathematical Model For The Distribution Of Dissolved Silicon In Interstitial Waters----An Analytical Approach, George T.F. Wong, Chester E. Grosch Jan 1978

A Mathematical Model For The Distribution Of Dissolved Silicon In Interstitial Waters----An Analytical Approach, George T.F. Wong, Chester E. Grosch

Journal of Marine Research

A mathematical model for the distribution of dissolved silicon in interstitial waters is studied. This model includes the input flux of particulate silicon, bioturbation, the dissolution of silicon particles, and the diffusion of dissolved silicon in the interstitial water. It is shown that the model reduces to a nonlinear eigenvalue problem. This problem is shown to have only one eigenvalue which is determined by the solution of a simple algebraic equation....
