Development of the Great Lakes Ice-circulation Model (GLIM): Application to Lake Erie in 2003–2004
Index words: Coupled Ice-Ocean Model Ice modeling Lake ice cover Ice thickness Ice speed Lake surface temperature Great Lakes Lake Erie To simulate ice and water circulation in Lake Erie over a yearly cycle, a Great Lakes Ice-circulation Model (GLIM) was developed by applying a Coupled Ice-Ocean Model (CIOM) with a 2-km resolution grid. The hourly surface wind stress and thermodynamic forcings ...
متن کاملAtypical Tabularia in Coastal Lake Erie, USA
Tabularia populations collected at a coastal site in Lake Erie, near Cleveland, Ohio, USA exhibit highly abnormal morphology. Frustules may be bent, asymmetric, have irregular striae patterns, irregular margins, or any combination of these characters. The majority of specimens in the collection are abnormal to some degree. Although specimens are so atypical that identification is difficult, rel...
متن کاملOhio Lake Erie Protection Fund Final Report
Bacteria exhibit the ability to metabolize a wide array of contaminants and, as a result, reduce their toxicity to wildlife and humans. The general goal of this project was to design and evaluate, as a proof-of concept, a DNA microarray assay to evaluate bacterial detoxification mechanisms in contaminated sediments. The assay consists of 100 probes that measure activity of bacterial remediation...
متن کاملRisk-benefit of consuming Lake Erie fish.
BACKGROUND Consumption of fish is promoted as a healthy way to obtain essential fatty acids (EFA) in the diet, yet the risk of ingesting harmful contaminants remains a concern. A recent study concluded that the risk-benefit of consuming fish from the North American Laurentian Great Lakes, which sustain important commercial and recreational fisheries, is currently unclear. We report the fatty ac...
متن کاملBoundary mixing in the thermocline of a large lake
[1] High-resolution measurements of near-bottom temperature stratification and current velocity were performed on the sloping boundary of a large lake at the depth of the seasonal thermocline. The measurements cover nearly the entire stratified period and reveal the periodic occurrence of strong temperature and current velocity fluctuations, which can be attributed to shoaling high-frequency in...
