Circulation, Transport And Bottom Boundary Layers Of The Deep Currents In The Brazil Basin, X. Durrieu De Madron, G. Weatherly

Journal of Marine Research

Zonal and meridional hydrographic sections obtained for the South Atlantic Ventilation Experiment are used to study the circulation patterns and estimate the transports of North Atlantic Deep Water (NADW) and Antarctic Bottom Water (AABW) in the Brazil Basin. The NADW Deep Western Boundary Current (DWBC) appears to be a relatively large (≈ 800 km wide by 2 km thick), double core current, separated by counterflowing recirculation. It appears to split, branching seaward at the Cape Saõ Roque near 5S and again at the Columbia-Trinidad Seamount Chain at 21S. As a result of this latter bifurcation, the NADW DWBC flow in …

Wave-Induced Abyssal Recirculations, Michael A. Spall

Journal of Marine Research

The forcing of abyssal recirculation gyres by cross-isopycnal mixing and wave fluxes near the deep western boundary is investigated. A three-layer isopycnal primitive equation model is applied in a series of experiments to an idealized basin with bottom topography. In the absence of deep western boundary current instabilities, cross-isopycnal mixing forces a cyclonic recirculation gyre, modified by topography, which is consistent with the traditional Stommel-Arons model. Instabilities of the boundary current fundamentally alter the mean basin-scale deep flow from a cyclonic recirculation to an anticyclonic recirculation. Bottom topography plays a key role in destabilizing the mean flow. The forcing mechanism …

Effects Of Porewater Hydrogen Sulfide On The Feeding Activity Of The Subsurface Deposit-Feeding Polychaete, Clymenella Torquata, Leidy, Charlotte M. Fuller

Journal of Marine Research

The effects of porewater hydrogen sulfide concentrations on the feeding and tube-building activity of the subsurface, deposit-feeding polychaete, Clymenella torquata were experimentally determined in the laboratory. Porewater hydrogen sulfide concentrations were manipulated by injecting a buffered, isotonic sodium sulfide solution into the experimental chambers. Fecal material was collected and weighed and tube-building activity was monitored daily. Fecal production was negatively correlated with porewater hydrogen sulfide concentration during experiments conducted in June and July. Hydrogen sulfide concentrations greater than 1000 μM in June and 700 μM in July resulted in reduced fecal production. Fecal production was not correlated with porewater hydrogen …

Particle Bioturbation In Massachusetts Bay: Preliminary Results Using A New Deliberate Tracer Technique, Robert A. Wheatcroft, Ilhan Olmez, Francais X. Pink

Journal of Marine Research

To better understand temporal and particle size-dependent bioturbation processes, we conducted a study of sediment mixing in Massachusetts Bay using a newly developed deliberate tracer technique. Sediments from a 32-m, fine-grained site were collected and the 38–62 (“silt”) and 63–125 (“sand”) μm fractions isolated. These particle-size fractions were labeled with two different noble metals (Au: silt & Ag: sand) using a thermal diffusion technique. Mixtures of the tracers were spread onto the seafloor in April and July 1992 by divers and were tube-cored (3 replicates) ˜ 80 d later in each case. Vertical profiles of the tracers were measured at …

A Linear Homogeneous Model For Topographic Control Of The Antarctic Circumpolar Current, Liping Wang

Journal of Marine Research

The results from the homogeneous channel model discussed by Wang and Huang (1994) is extended to a model whose geometry consists of a zonal channel and two partial meridional barriers along each boundary at the same longitude. Both the model transport and especially the model circulation are significantly affected by the presence of the two meridional barriers. There is a critical height of the ridge between the two partial meridional barriers, above which all geostrophic contours in the channel are blocked. In the case with a subcritically high ridge, the Sverdrup balance does not apply and there is no finite …

Symptoms As Symbols, J. D. Wailua Brandman

Yale School of Nursing Digital Theses

A qualitative, exploratory, descriptive study was designed to explore the relationship between patients' physical symptoms of illness or injury and their description of life pattern. Newman's nursing model, Health as expanding consciousness, was used as a theoretical framework with support from the Holographic paradigm and findings from Psychoneuroimmunology. Data was collected from a convenience sample of seven volunteers, adult emergency room patients. A semi-structured interview schedule and a demographic questionnaire, developed by the investigator, were used for data collection. When asked to tell the investigator the most stressful events of his life prior to the selected emergency room visit, each …

Second Order Approximation In The Partially Linear Regression Model, Oliver B. Linton

Cowles Foundation Discussion Papers

We examine the second order properties of various quantities of interest in the partially linear regression model. We obtain a stochastic expansion with remainder o P ( n -2µ ), where µ < 1/2, for the standardized semiparametric least squares estimator, a standard error estimator, and a studentized statistic. We use the second order expansions to correct the standard error estimates for second order effects, and to define a method of bandwidth choice. A Monte Carlo experiment provides favorable evidence on our method of bandwidth choice.

Beyond "Detached Concern": The Cognitive And Ethical Function Of Emotions In Medical Practice, Jodi Lauren Halpern

Yale Medicine Thesis Digital Library

This dissertation analyzes the ideal of "detached concern" in medical practice. This ideal arises as an attempt to bridge the gap in medicine between managing diseases and recognizing patients "as persons." First, physicians take their emotions to interfere with making objective diagnoses and making every aspect of their practice "scientific." Second, physicians idealize detachment as the stance of the impartial moral agent who is able to care for all types of patients out of a sense of duty. Third, physicians also recognize the need to be empathic; however they conceive empathy as a purely cognitive capacity that is compatible with …
