Multivariate statistics applied to phytoplankton data from two Gulf Stream warm core rings’
Multivariate statistical techniques were used on data from two cruises to Gulf Stream warm core rings to reveal patterns and relationships between phytoplankton species abundance and environmental parameters. Principal component analysis (PCA) was performed on each cruise separately and on the combined data to help delineate groups of stations, depths, and species. A ring center station with hi...
متن کاملObservations on the flow structures and transport in a simulated warm-core ring in the Gulf of Mexico
This study presents several new observations from the study of a numerically simulated warm-core ring (WCR) in the Gulf of Mexico based on the ECCO2 global ocean simulation. Using Lagrangian coherent structures (LCS) techniques to investigate this flow reveals a pattern of transversely intersecting LCS in the mixed layer of the WCR which experiences consistent stretching behavior over a large r...
متن کاملA cloud line over the Gulf Stream
[1] A 1000 km long cloud-line over the major axis of the Gulf Stream was detected in imagery from a number of satellites on April 24, 2001. Analysis of environmental conditions shows that such a cloud-line is formed when the synoptic low-level wind is parallel to the Gulf Stream axis and the sky is clear, conditions that rarely occur in the hightemperature and high-moisture Gulf Stream region. ...
متن کاملComparisons between Surface, Barotropic and Abyssal Flows during the Passage of a Warm-core Ring
A comparison is made of results for barotropic, surface and abyssal flows during the formation and passage of a warm-core ring in the East Australian Current. The barotropic velocities are estimated from sea-floor measurements of the horizontal electric field, which is induced by water motion. Values for the surface and near-bottom velocities are obtained generally by more traditional methods. ...
متن کاملSources of nitrogen for primary production in warm - core rings 79 - E and 8 1 - D 1
Profound changes in concentrations of phytoplankton biomass and rates of primary production in warm-core Gulf Stream rings can occur, apparently in response to nutrient enrichment, within a few months after a ring separates from the Gulf Stream. In Ring 8 1 -D at 3 months of age the dependence on NO,was 2%3 times as high as in the northern Sargasso Sea and in Ring 79-E shortly after formation. ...
