Cross–Shelf Exchange Along the Antarctic Continental Margin: Modeling Results
The shelf areas around the Antarctic Continent are locations of dense water formation; part of these water masses ventilate the adjacent deep ocean basins and enter the global thermohaline circulation. This paper takes a look at regional differences of shelf sea–deep ocean exchange in high southern latitudes (mainly between the Weddell and Ross Seas), highlights a few physical mechanisms potent...
متن کاملIron in East Antarctic Snow: Implications for Atmospheric Iron Deposition and Algal Production in Antarctic Waters
To evaluate the deposition and solubility of aerosol iron in the Antarctic seasonal sea ice zone (SSIZ), iron was measured in snow samples collected from three areas in the SSIZ (Prydz Bay, Dumont d'Urville Sea and Ross Sea) and one continental area (Princess Elizabeth Land) of East Antarctica. Concentrations of total-dissolvable iron (that soluble at pH -2) ranged from 20-2950 pg g-l, with the...
متن کاملRegulation of Algal Blooms in Antarctic Shelf Waters by the Release of Iron From Melting Sea Ice
During summer 1995-96, we measured iron in the water column and conducted iron-enrichment bottle-incubation experiments at a station in the central Ross Sea (76ø30'S, 170ø40'W), first, in the presence of melting sea ice, and 17 days later, in ice-free conditions. We observed a striking temporal change in mixed-layer dissolved iron concentrations at this station, from 0.72-2.3 nM with sea ice pr...
متن کاملThe continental shelf benthic iron flux and its isotope composition
Benthic iron fluxes from sites along the Oregon–California continental shelf determined using in situ benthic chambers, range from less than 10 lmol m 2 d 1 to values in excess of 300 lmol m 2 d . These fluxes are generally greater than previously published iron fluxes for continental shelves contiguous with the open ocean (as opposed to marginal seas, bays, or estuaries) with the highest fluxe...
متن کاملSpatio-temporal patterns of juvenile marine turtle occurrence in waters of the European continental shelf
We present data spanning approximately 100 years regarding the spatial and temporal occurrence of marine turtle sightings and strandings in the northeast Atlantic from two public recording schemes and demonstrate potential signals of changing population status. Records of loggerhead (n = 317) and Kemp’s ridley (n = 44) turtles occurring on the European continental shelf were most prevalent duri...
