Mixing Of Renewal Water Flowing Into The Caribbean Sea, Wilton Sturges Jan 1975

Mixing Of Renewal Water Flowing Into The Caribbean Sea, Wilton Sturges

Journal of Marine Research

Observations with moored current meters and STD sections in the Jungfern Passage sill during February 1971 show inflow of 50 × 103 m3/sec; 5 km downstream, the entrainment of resident water has increased the volume flux by 40%. At times the inflow ceased; the current-meter records suggest a periodicity of ~ two weeks. The inflowing water at the sill is 0.25 to 0.3°C colder than the basin water at sill depth....


Continuous Representation Of Wind Stress And Wind Stress Curl Over The World Ocean, Alan J. Evenson, George Veronis Jan 1975

Continuous Representation Of Wind Stress And Wind Stress Curl Over The World Ocean, Alan J. Evenson, George Veronis

Journal of Marine Research

A continuous wind stress distribution over the world oceans is derived by fitting a spline function representation to the values of the wind stress given by Hellerman (1968) for each season and for the annual mean. The derived wind stress is then used to obtain a representation for the curl of the wind stress over the same region, and steadystate, Sverdrup transport calculations are calculated from the curl for each set of data. The derived transports for the western boundary currents do not agree with observed estimates....

An Oceanic Vorticity Meter, T. Rossby Jan 1975

An Oceanic Vorticity Meter, T. Rossby

Journal of Marine Research

An acoustical method of determining the relative vorticity of oceanic motions is advanced. By transmitting signals in opposite directions around a closed loop, for example a 3 km triangle, one can obtain directly the circulation, which by virtue of Stoke's theorem is equivalent to the average vorticity of the "enclosed" fluid times the area....


Physical Processes In A Fringing Reef System, Harry H. Roberts, Stephen P. Murray, Joseph N. Suhayda Jan 1975

Physical Processes In A Fringing Reef System, Harry H. Roberts, Stephen P. Murray, Joseph N. Suhayda

Journal of Marine Research

Field studies primarily on Grand Cayman Island and supporting investigations on Barbados furnished data concerning the magnitudes and spatial gradients of physical processes which interact with typical Caribbean reef systems and their unusual sea floor configurations. In situ measurements from the fore-reef shelf indicate that currents and deepwater waves are significantly modified by reef morphology....


M2 Surface And Internal Tides On The Scotian Shelf And Slope, Brian Petrie Jan 1975

M2 Surface And Internal Tides On The Scotian Shelf And Slope, Brian Petrie

Journal of Marine Research

Analysis of current meter and temperature data on the continental shelf and slope off Nova Scotia reveals two distinct regimes for the M2 tide. On the slope the baroclinic tide dominates. The data is consistent with strong generation near a critical zone at about 200 m depth. The internal tide on the slope is compatable with two-dimensional internal tide generation models and with the radiation condition imposed in these models....

Volume Dedicated To Raymond Braislin Montgomery On Occasion Of His Sixty-Fifth Birthday; Bibliography Of Raymond Braislin Montgomery; Biographical Notes: Raymond Braislin Montgomery, William C. Boicourt

Journal of Marine Research

If a scientist's achievement were gauged solely on the strength of his formal research, Raymond Braislin Montgomery's bibliography would justify the high regard in which his professional friends hold him. But this esteem is held in large part for a contribution to physical oceanography that cannot be traced via a list of writings or a list of honors or positions. It is for Montgonery's role as teacher, scholar and critic.


Interpretation Of Maps Of Geopotential Anomaly For The Deep Pacific Ocean, Joseph L. Reid, Robert S. Arthur Jan 1975

Interpretation Of Maps Of Geopotential Anomaly For The Deep Pacific Ocean, Joseph L. Reid, Robert S. Arthur

Journal of Marine Research

Maps of the anomaly of the geopotential distance between various deep isobaric surfaces in the Pacific have been prepared and briefly compared with such information and concepts of the deeper circulation as are available. This comparison can yield, with no peculiar or extreme assumptions about the absolute flow at any level, a qualitative scheme of deeper circulation that is consistent with such few postulates and measurements as are at hand....


Studies In Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis, Theodore Simon Jan 1975

Studies In Slipped Capital Femoral Epiphysis, Theodore Simon

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

[From the Introduction] This study serves to define the population at risk for developing slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE). Although epidemiological studies of this disease have been completed, this large sample helps to confirm the earlier work. Moreover, it characterizes the relationship of this sample with previous samples and hence evaluates the contention that the results of other studies on this sample are based on a typical group of SCFE victims.

Reaction Of Methyl Halides With Seawater And Marine Aerosols, Oliver C. Zafiriou Jan 1975

Reaction Of Methyl Halides With Seawater And Marine Aerosols, Oliver C. Zafiriou

Journal of Marine Research

Methyl iodide is known to be formed biologically in seawater and has been postulated as the agent of iodine air-sea transport. Kinetic calculations and experiments demonstrate that methyl iodide reacts with chloride ion in seawater to yield methyl chloride approximately as fast as it exchanges into the atmosphere. In seawater, both methyl chloride and methyl iodide are slowly hydrolyzed to methanol and halide ions. The rate of trapping of I on sea-salt particles by reaction with atmospheric methyl iodide is shown to be too slow to account for the enrichment of the marine aerosol in I relative to seawater....


Detrital Utilization By The Polychaete, Capitella Capitata, Kenneth R. Tenore Jan 1975

Detrital Utilization By The Polychaete, Capitella Capitata, Kenneth R. Tenore

Journal of Marine Research

Although organic detritus is an important energy source in marine ecosystems little quantitative data are available on rates of utilization by deposit feeders. A major reason is the difficulty of using isotope tracer techniques due to the release. and recycling of such non-conservative labels as carbon-14 from the detritus during suspension in an aquatic medium....


Observations Of The California Countercurrent, J. B. Wickham Jan 1975

Observations Of The California Countercurrent, J. B. Wickham

Journal of Marine Research

Spatially dense observations in consecutive years in a region within about 50 km of the continental shelf show a complex structure of southern water undergoing dilution by mixing as it flows northward. An eddy a few tens of km in diameter appears to be a major contributor to the mixing process. Marked differences are seen in structure and flow between the two years.


The Optimum Wiggliness Of Tidal Admittances, Bernard D. Zetler, Walter H. Munk Jan 1975

The Optimum Wiggliness Of Tidal Admittances, Bernard D. Zetler, Walter H. Munk

Journal of Marine Research

Some numerical experiments with recent offshore tide measurements have examined various parameters involved in tidal prediction by the response method: the number of prediction weights, their lead (and lag) times, and the treatment of radiational tides. The optimum number of weights depends directly on the length of record and inversely on noise level in a tidal band; more weights degrade the prediction and generate an artificial wiggliness in the admittance.


Deep Caribbean Inflow Through The Anegada -- Jungfern Passage, Marvel C. Stalcup, William G. Metcalf, Richard G. Johnson Jan 1975

Deep Caribbean Inflow Through The Anegada -- Jungfern Passage, Marvel C. Stalcup, William G. Metcalf, Richard G. Johnson

Journal of Marine Research

The Jungfem Passage Sill at a depth of 1815 meters is the controlling sill for the deepest water exchange between the Atlantic Ocean and the Venezuelan Basin of the Caribbean Sea. Data from moored current meters and temperature recorders, STD's and hydrographic stations obtained during March and April 1972 are interpreted as indicating an average net flow of 56 × 103 m3 sec-1 of deep Atlantic water into the Caribbean Sea. Current speeds as high as 32 cm sec-1 were recorded on the sill near the axis of the inflow, and the average velocity during 38 days was 20 cm …

Parapithecus Grangeri (Parapithecidae, Old World Higher Primates): New Species From The Oligocene Of Egypt And The Initial Differentiation Of Ceropithecoidea, Elwyn L. Simons Dec 1974

Parapithecus Grangeri (Parapithecidae, Old World Higher Primates): New Species From The Oligocene Of Egypt And The Initial Differentiation Of Ceropithecoidea, Elwyn L. Simons

Postilla

Among many primate fossils from the badlands of Oligocene age in the Fayum Province, Egypt, are specimens of a new species of the genus Parapithecus. The new materials for the first time provide evidence of the upper dentition and mandibular materials show that all the early determinations as to the dental formula of the type species of Parapithecus, P. fraasi, were incorrect. The new species, P. grangeri, is here described. It is suggested that the family Parapithecidae is best ranked in Cerecopithecoidea and that, in fact, Parapithecus and Apidium are the earliest known cercopithecoids.
