Baroclinic Transport In The Gulf Of Alaska Part Ii. A Fresh Water Driven Coastal Current, Thomas C. Royer Jan 1981

Baroclinic Transport In The Gulf Of Alaska Part Ii. A Fresh Water Driven Coastal Current, Thomas C. Royer

Journal of Marine Research

A coastal geostrophic, baroclinic jet in the Gulf of Alaska is driven seasonally by fresh water discharge and winds. The narrow current (<20 km) has a mean transport of 0.24 × 106 m3 s-1 (relative to 100 db) and velocities in excess of 66 cm s-1. The jet reaches a maximum in autumn, coincident with maximum fresh water discharge along the coast....

Do Oceanic Zooplankton Aggregate At, Or Near, The Deep Chlorophyll Maximum?, Alan R. Longhurst, Alex W. Herman Jan 1981

Do Oceanic Zooplankton Aggregate At, Or Near, The Deep Chlorophyll Maximum?, Alan R. Longhurst, Alex W. Herman

Journal of Marine Research

Grazing pressure, varying with depth, must play a role in shaping the general form of the chlorophyll profile which often contains a deep chlorophyll maximum (DCM). Until we obtain enough coincident high-precision profiles of chlorophyll and grazing plankton (such as the BATFISH profiles, discussed below) it is difficult to be sure that this is so, though the problem is important enough to warrant an attempt, and several have been made....

Oceanic Co2 Increase In Baffin Bay, E. P. Jones, E. M. Levy Jan 1981

Oceanic Co2 Increase In Baffin Bay, E. P. Jones, E. M. Levy

Journal of Marine Research

Measurements of the total inorganic carbon in the water of Baffin Bay are interpreted to reflect increases in atmospheric carbon dioxide due to fossil fuel combustion. The increases are indicated by differences at various depths in the alkalinity and total inorganic carbon values after correction for calcium carbonate dissolution and decay of organic matter. These differences are comparable to the changes reported for GEOSECS Atlantic and Pacific Stations.

Nutrition And Food Limitation Of Deposit-Feeders. Ii. Differential Effects Of Hydrobia Totteni And Ilyanassa Obsoleta On The Microbial Community, Thomas S. Bianchi, Jeffrey S. Levinton Jan 1981

Nutrition And Food Limitation Of Deposit-Feeders. Ii. Differential Effects Of Hydrobia Totteni And Ilyanassa Obsoleta On The Microbial Community, Thomas S. Bianchi, Jeffrey S. Levinton

Journal of Marine Research

We examined the effects of the mud snails Hydrobia totteni and Ilyanassa obsoleta on microbial communities of sediments in microcosms. Varying density of Hydrobia, and the presence of Ilyanassa, exerted no effect on steady state bacterial standing stock. This is probably related to the rapid recovery rate of bacteria, despite efficient grazing....

Forced Standing Equatorial Ocean Wave Modes, Peter R. Gent Jan 1981

Forced Standing Equatorial Ocean Wave Modes, Peter R. Gent

Journal of Marine Research

Standing equatorial wave modes are shown to be exact solutions of the forced, linear, inviscid shallow water equations when the forcing is zonally uniform and at a single frequency. If the forcing is equatorially confined in the meridional direction, then so is the directly forced response and the standing mode does not lealr. energy away from the equator....

Geomorphology And Community Composition Of Two Adjacent Reef Areas, Discovery Bay, Jamaica, W. David Liddell, Sharon L. Ohlhorst Jan 1981

Geomorphology And Community Composition Of Two Adjacent Reef Areas, Discovery Bay, Jamaica, W. David Liddell, Sharon L. Ohlhorst

Journal of Marine Research

The north coast of Jamaica possesses a highly variable topography which reflects tectonic displacement of Pleistocene rock units. Holocene reef development is intimately related to the underlying Pleistocene rocks and reflects such variation in basement morphology. Underwater surveys have established that two adjacent reef areas, the East and West Fore Reefs at Discovery Bay, Jamaica, exhibit contrasting bottom profiles which are due to differential offset of the underlying Pleistocene shelf carbonates....

The Influence Of The Mid-Atlantic Ridge Upon The Circulation And The Properties Of The Mediterranean Water Southwest Of The Azores, Terrence M. Joyce Jan 1981

The Influence Of The Mid-Atlantic Ridge Upon The Circulation And The Properties Of The Mediterranean Water Southwest Of The Azores, Terrence M. Joyce

Journal of Marine Research

The warm, salty water influenced by the Mediterranean outflow can be observed at middepth throughout the Central North Atlantic Ocean. Katz (1970) first noted that rather than a gradual salinity decrease away from the source, large changes were observable over major topographic features such as the mid-Atlantic Ridge, despite the fact that the topography presented no direct physical barrier to the core layer....

Temporal Variations In Diatom Abundance Off Southern California In Relation To Surface Temperature, Air Temperature And Sea Level, Sargun A. Tont Jan 1981

Temporal Variations In Diatom Abundance Off Southern California In Relation To Surface Temperature, Air Temperature And Sea Level, Sargun A. Tont

Journal of Marine Research

Temporal variations in diatom abundance off the southern California coast during the 1920- 1939 period can be explained by a combination of the changes in the circulation patterns of major water masses and variations associated with upwelling events. Monthly, tri-monthly, seasonal and yearly anomalies of diatom abundances have significant negative correlation with the anomalies of sea surface temperature, air temperature and sea level.
