Deep-Sea Species Diversity: Does It Have A Characteristic Scale?, Peter A. Jumars
Deep-Sea Species Diversity: Does It Have A Characteristic Scale?, Peter A. Jumars
Journal of Marine Research
Dispersion patterns and species diversities of deep-sea macrobenthos were examined for evidence that diversity-controlling processes operate predominantly on any one of several spatial scales. Identification of such scales, if any, would aid in the identification of the diversity-regulating processes themselves. The specific hypothesis that species diversity is independent of scale and location within the deep sea was tested with replicated...
The Role Of Inertia-Gravity And Planetary Waves In The Response Of A Tropical Ocean To The Incidence Of An Equatorial Kelvin Wave On A Meridional Boundary, D. L.T. Anderson, P. B. Rowlands
The Role Of Inertia-Gravity And Planetary Waves In The Response Of A Tropical Ocean To The Incidence Of An Equatorial Kelvin Wave On A Meridional Boundary, D. L.T. Anderson, P. B. Rowlands
Journal of Marine Research
The problem of an equatorial Kelvin wave of step-function form incident on an eastern meridional boundary is solved on an equatorial beta-plane. The nature of the transient planetary and inertia-gravity waves is examined and the way in which they combine to produce a coastally trapped Kelvin wave evaluated....
Anomalous Navifacial Salinities In The Tropical Pacific Ocean, J. R. Donguy, C. Henin
Anomalous Navifacial Salinities In The Tropical Pacific Ocean, J. R. Donguy, C. Henin
Journal of Marine Research
All available navifacial data from 1956 to 1974 have been compiled to produce two charts per year of surface salinity between 150°E and 130°W and between 10°N and 25°S. On each chart, the following m ain features are observed: south of 10°S and east of 160°W the tropical salinity maximum extending westward south of the equator; and a salinity minimum from 5°S to 20°S and west of 170°W. The oscillations of the position and intensity of these features are not all seasonal....
Doppler Effects Of Inertial Currents On Subsurface Temperature Measurements, T. H. Bell Jr.
Doppler Effects Of Inertial Currents On Subsurface Temperature Measurements, T. H. Bell Jr.
Journal of Marine Research
In the presence of inertial oscillations, temperature measurements from a moored sensor will be contaminated by advected spatial structure. The degree of contamination is comparable to that induced by steady currents of the same magnitude, and its effect resembles that of a discrete linear filter acting on the spectrum...
Large Scale Inhomogeneities And Mesoscale Ocean Waves: A Single, Stable Wave Field, James C. Mcwilliams
Large Scale Inhomogeneities And Mesoscale Ocean Waves: A Single, Stable Wave Field, James C. Mcwilliams
Journal of Marine Research
Horizontally propagating wave solution forms are assumed for mid-ocean mesoscale currents (i.e., those with spatial and temporal cycles of a few hundred kilometers and several months). The wave environment-defined to include the Coriolis parameter, bottom topography, and mean currents-is assumed to be inhomogeneous, but only on much larger scales. Mutual compatibility between these assumptions is derived....
Diffraction And Refraction Calculations For Waves Incident On An Island, Ivar G. Jonsson, Ove Skovgaard, Ole Brink-Kjaer
Diffraction And Refraction Calculations For Waves Incident On An Island, Ivar G. Jonsson, Ove Skovgaard, Ole Brink-Kjaer
Journal of Marine Research
An island of circular cylindrical shape, situated on a paraboloidal shoal (Fig. 1 and Table 1) in an infinite ocean of constant depth is attacked by small regular waves of long period and of plane incidence. The wave field around the island is calculated according to two different approaches, viz. a diffraction theory and a refraction theory (i.e. geometrical optics). The solutions are compared for those (tsunami) periods, where the Coriolis force can be neglected.
On The Uncertainty Of Wind Stress Curl Calculations, Peter M. Saunders
On The Uncertainty Of Wind Stress Curl Calculations, Peter M. Saunders
Journal of Marine Research
In a 10° square test area of the North Atlantic the annual wind stress is estimated in 1° squares from volunteer ship reports. The curl of the wind stress is deduced therefrom and is shown significantly different from that recently published based on 5° square wind stress data of Hellerman. The coarse resolution of the latter underestimates maxima and minima in the curl by as much as 50%....
Dissolved Copper, Nickel, And Cadmium In The Sargasso Sea, Michael L. Bender, Christine Gagner
Dissolved Copper, Nickel, And Cadmium In The Sargasso Sea, Michael L. Bender, Christine Gagner
Journal of Marine Research
Concentrations of dissolved Cu, Ni, and Cd were determined in surface water samples and 25 deep water samples from two stations in the Sargasso Sea. Analyses were performed using a modified version of the APDC coprecipitation technique of Boyle and Edmond (1975a)....
Asymptotic Regimes In Mixed-Layer Deepening, R. A. De Szoeke, P. B. Rhines
Asymptotic Regimes In Mixed-Layer Deepening, R. A. De Szoeke, P. B. Rhines
Journal of Marine Research
The model equation for the mixed layer proposed by Niiler (1975) combines the Kraus-Turner turbulent erosion prescription with the Pollard-Rhines-Thompson treatment of induced shear-flow deepening and limiting by Coriolis forces. We show here that both are special cases which emerge asymptotically from the model equation. Numerical solutions show the dynamics to pass through four distinct regimes, in the case of wind-mixing of an initially resting fluid.
Transequatorial Movement Of Water Masses In The Indian Ocean, G. S. Sharma
Transequatorial Movement Of Water Masses In The Indian Ocean, G. S. Sharma
Journal of Marine Research
Interrelationships of potential temperature-salinity and potential temperature-oxyty are presented for 31 stations along 5°N, the equator, and 5°S during the southwest monsoon, and the volumes of water in bivariate classes of potential temperature against salinity are estimated throughout each section. The sources of different water types and their flow pattern are discussed....
Transport Pathways Of Polychlorinated Biphenyls In Atlantic Water, George R. Harvey, William G. Steinhauer
Transport Pathways Of Polychlorinated Biphenyls In Atlantic Water, George R. Harvey, William G. Steinhauer
Journal of Marine Research
The distribution of polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) in the surface waters of the Atlantic shows concentration maxima in latitudes of high net precipitation and a minimum in the midlatitudes. Very low PCB concentrations are found in the South Atlantic. Since the nonvolatile inorganic radionuclide distribution in the Atlantic shows no dependence on precipitation patterns, codistillation with evaporating water must be a major factor in determining the distribution of PCBs....
The Variance Spectrum Of Phytoplankton In A Turbulent Ocean, Kenneth L. Denman, Trevor Platt
The Variance Spectrum Of Phytoplankton In A Turbulent Ocean, Kenneth L. Denman, Trevor Platt
Journal of Marine Research
Spatial heterogeneity of ecological variables is recognized as an important stabilizing factor for ecosystem function, but has proved to be a difficult concept to characterize in quantitative, operational terms. In the sea, however, chlorophyll concentration can be estimated by a continuous in vivo measurement, and used to describe the spatial structure of phytoplankton populations in terms of a variance spectrum in either wavenumber or frequency space....
Observations Of Internal Waves And Coastal Upwelling Off The Oregon Coast, Stanley P. Hayes, David Halpern
Observations Of Internal Waves And Coastal Upwelling Off The Oregon Coast, Stanley P. Hayes, David Halpern
Journal of Marine Research
A vertical array of moored velocity and temperature sensors was used to study the high-frequency (periods of less than 24 hr) structure during a coastal upwelling event. The upwelling event, which represents a wind-generated mesoscale response of the ocean circulation along a meridional coastline, changes the environment in which the high-frequency disturbances are produced and propagated....
A Multiple Opening/Closing Net And Environmental Sensing System For Sampling Zooplankton, Peter H. Wiebe, Kenneth H. Burt, Steven H. Boyd, Alfred W. Morton
A Multiple Opening/Closing Net And Environmental Sensing System For Sampling Zooplankton, Peter H. Wiebe, Kenneth H. Burt, Steven H. Boyd, Alfred W. Morton
Journal of Marine Research
The MOCNESS is based on the Tucker Trawl principle and has nine rectangular nets (1 m × 1.4 m) which are opened and closed sequentially by commands through conducting cable from the surface. Environmental sensors to measure conductivity, temperature, and depth are attached to the net support frame. In addition, sensors to monitor flow past the net and the angle of the net assembly from the vertical, and indicators to record the electrical and mechanical function of the opening/closing mechanism are present....
Finite Amplitude Edge Waves, R. T. Guza, A. J. Bowen
Finite Amplitude Edge Waves, R. T. Guza, A. J. Bowen
Journal of Marine Research
Large amplitude edge waves are shown to be modified by nonlinear effects in a way very similar to surface waves in deep water (Stokes, 1847); trapped harmonics tend to sharpen the wave crests and the natural frequency increases with wave amplitude, progressive edge waves propagating faster at large amplitude. A standing edge wave exhibits additional properties due to interaction between its two constituent progressive waves....
Synoptic Studies Of Transients In The Florida Current, Walter Düing
Synoptic Studies Of Transients In The Florida Current, Walter Düing
Journal of Marine Research
The SYNOPS experiment was designed to study the changing vertical structure of the Florida Current, covering tidal and subinertial fluctuations. The emphasis in this paper is placed on the discussion of highly energetic quasi-barotropic waves with a time scale of several days. These waves are superimposed on the mean baroclinic profile of the Florida Current; thus, in the simplest case, the mean profile is just shifted parallel to itself. Since the mean downstream flow is close to zero in the lower layer, temporary deep southward flow results....
On The Relationship Between Transport And Motional Electric Potentials In Broad, Shallow Currents, Thomas B. Sanford, Reinhard E. Flick
On The Relationship Between Transport And Motional Electric Potentials In Broad, Shallow Currents, Thomas B. Sanford, Reinhard E. Flick
Journal of Marine Research
Knowledge of the volume transport is of great practical importance in many studies of the flow through or within shallow channels and estuaries. However, transport measurements are often difficult to obtain because of the temporal or spatial variability of the flow. The bulk motion of a stream has been inferred from measurements which integrate the electric field induced by the motion of seawater through the earth's magnetic field....
The Florida Current At Key West: Summer 1972, Irving H. Brooks, Pearn P. Niller
The Florida Current At Key West: Summer 1972, Irving H. Brooks, Pearn P. Niller
Journal of Marine Research
Sixteen dropsonde cross-sections of the Florida Straits at the Key West, Florida, longitude are used to examine the persistent features and large-scale variations of the temperature, salinity, and horizontal velocity structures of the Florida Current. A persistent counterflow was found along the northern shore of the Current, which can be interpreted from the salinity distribution as cyclonic recirculation of the Florida Current water. Analysis of the temporal variations indicate that a downstream acceleration of the Current is accompanied by a warming trend.

Secular Variability In The Large-Scale Baroclinic Transport Of The North Pacific From 1950–1970, Warren B. White
Secular Variability In The Large-Scale Baroclinic Transport Of The North Pacific From 1950–1970, Warren B. White
Journal of Marine Research
A time sequence of meridional baroclinic transport (0/1000 db) across the Subtropical gyre of the North Pacific is constructed, based upon available hydrographic data collected from 1950-1970. This time sequence displays significant variability, with a maximum possible range ± 25 % about the long-term mean and a principal time scale of approximately six years. A comparison of this time sequence with that of the Kuroshio (Nitani, 1972) shows good correlation in both amplitude and phase....
Zonation And Faunal Composition Of Epibenthic Populations On The Continental Slope South Of New England, Richard L. Haedrich, Gilbert T. Rowe, Pamela T. Polloni
Zonation And Faunal Composition Of Epibenthic Populations On The Continental Slope South Of New England, Richard L. Haedrich, Gilbert T. Rowe, Pamela T. Polloni
Journal of Marine Research
The epibenthic macrofauna, including demersal fishes, between 140 and 1900 m on the continental slope south of New England was found to be distributed in three zones: shallow (141-285 m), middle (393-1095 m), and deep (1270-1928 m). Fauna! boundaries were associated with the transition zones from shelf to upper continental slope and from upper to lower continental slope. The small Alvin Canyon was not faunally distinct. Fishes and echinoderms were the most abundant taxa, the former predominant in shallow and middle depths and the latter predominating deeper....
Some Effects Of Bottom Topography On Baroclinic Stability, Roland A. De Szoeke
Some Effects Of Bottom Topography On Baroclinic Stability, Roland A. De Szoeke
Journal of Marine Research
The effects of Fourier components of cross-stream topographic slope are included in the classical linear theory of quasigeostrophic baroclinic instability. The effect of uniformly sloping topography is reviewed, emphasis being placed on the possibility of destabilization through interaction between long topographic baroclinic Rossby waves and short thermal baroclinic Rossby waves with the same downstream wave number and phase speed....

The New Zealand Semi-Diurnal Tide, J. A.T. Bye, R. A. Heath
Journal of Marine Research
Data on the semi-diurnal tide around the coast of New Zealand, and on neighbouring islands are summarized, and interpreted using World, and a large scale, numerical models, and an analytical island-shelf model. The island-shelf model consists of a circular island (representing New Zealand) surrounded by a parabolic shelf, and a deep ocean of co~stant depth....
Statistical Observations Of The Trajectories Of Neutrally Buoyant Floats In The North Atlantic, H. J. Freeland, P. B. Rhines, T. Rossby
Statistical Observations Of The Trajectories Of Neutrally Buoyant Floats In The North Atlantic, H. J. Freeland, P. B. Rhines, T. Rossby
Journal of Marine Research
This is a report of the statistical behavior of neutrally buoyant SOFAR floats, drifting at 1500 m depth in the Sargasso Sea where the currents are dominantly time-dependent. The float level is fairly typical of the deep ocean below the main thermocline....
A Quasi-Lagrangian Study Of Mid-Ocean Variability Using Long Range Sofar Floats, T. Rossby, A. D. Voorhis, D. Webb
A Quasi-Lagrangian Study Of Mid-Ocean Variability Using Long Range Sofar Floats, T. Rossby, A. D. Voorhis, D. Webb
Journal of Marine Research
Twenty neutrally buoyant SOFAR floats were used in the Mid-Ocean Dynamics Experiment (MODE) to study the structure and variability of the deep ocean currents. The floats were clustered so that the pattern of motions could be resolved (mapping and pattern recognition). A number of float trajectories are shown and the very individual character of their signature is emphasized. Some floats remain nearly stationary for a year whereas others will cover hundreds of kilometers to the south or west in just a few months....
Stabilization Of Atmospheric Circulation Patterns By Sea Surface Temperatures, Jerome Namias
Stabilization Of Atmospheric Circulation Patterns By Sea Surface Temperatures, Jerome Namias
Journal of Marine Research
Although the atmosphere and the underlying sea surface temperatures are usually well coupled so that quantitative specification of one medium by the other is quite successful, there are occasional periods when no such coupling exists. A case of this kind occurred during the cold months of 1957-58, when the atmosphere transitionally went off track, only to return later on to its original abnormal regime (negative height anomalies in the east central North Pacific). This paper describes the breakdown and restoration of the large scale coupling mechanism and poses a problem of major concern to those hoping to predict climatic fluctuations …
