Numerical Model Simulations of Continental Shelf Flows off Northern California
The three-dimensional circulation on the continental shelf off northern California in the WEST (Wind Events and Shelf Transport) experiment region during summer 2001 is studied using the primitive equation Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS). The simulations are performed with realistic topography and initial stratification in a limited-area domain with a high-resolution grid. Forcing consist...
متن کاملMapping Submarine Landslide: A Case Study in Northern Continental Slope of the South China Sea
Geographical Information Systems is a useful tool for marine geohazard mapping. This paper describes an integrated and systematic map-based approach for identification and characterization of submarine landslide with multidisciplinary data such as multibeam bathymetric data, multichannel seismic data, sidescan sonar and so on. Taking Liwan 31 gas field in northern continental slope of Southern ...
متن کاملOcean processes at the Antarctic continental slope
The Antarctic continental shelves and slopes occupy relatively small areas, but, nevertheless, are important for global climate, biogeochemical cycling and ecosystem functioning. Processes of water mass transformation through sea ice formation/melting and ocean-atmosphere interaction are key to the formation of deep and bottom waters as well as determining the heat flux beneath ice shelves. Cli...
متن کاملModeling Of Selected Continental Slope Processes
The objectives of this project are to: (1) Characterize the effect of spatial variations in deposition and erosion on the fluid flow, pore pressures and thus the stability of continental slope sediments. (2) Constrain the impact of individual turbidity currents on seafloor evolution. (3) Develop a technique for correlating stratigraphy complicated by spatial variations in sedimentation, erosion...

s of Articles Authored or Coauthored by Permanente Clinicians nonoperative management, surgeons should consider this diagnosis in selected patients who present with abdominal symptoms. Knowledge of typical clinical features and judicious use of computed tomography may decrease the number of unnecessary emergency operations in young adults with acute diverticulitis. Our data do not support a “vi...
