Modeling tides in Monterey Bay, California
from the regional ocean modeling system (ROMS), has three one-way nested domains with the finest resolution of 1.6 km in the horizontal direction and 32 levels in the vertical direction. In present research, the tidal simulation of the system is validated against tide gauges, ADCP current observations, high-frequency radar surface-current observations, and compared with the output from two baro...
متن کاملDigestive chitinolytic activity in marine fishes of Monterey Bay, California.
Chitinolytic activities, both chitinase (EC 3.2.1.14) and minimum chitobiase (beta-N-acetyl-D-glucosaminidase; EC 3.2.1.30), were measured in stomach and intestinal tissues and their contents, from 13 fish species. Higher activities were found in the tissues than in the gut contents, and higher activities were seen in the stomachs than in the intestines. Demersal species exhibited chitobiase ac...
متن کاملSilica production in the Monterey, California, upwelling; system
Silica cycling was examined during a major upwelling event in Monterey Bay, California. Strong upwcllingfavorable winds blew for 6 d with speeds up to 15 m s ’ just prior to the study. A survey of the region near the end of the wind event showed newly upwelled water at the north end of the bay, with silicic acid concentrations up to 29.8 PM. Silicic acid concentrations decreased to a minimum of...
متن کاملBiological modulation of upper ocean physics: Simulating the biothermal feedback effect in Monterey Bay, California
Marine phytoplankton and associated organic materials absorb a substantial quantity of solar shortwave energy penetrating the upper ocean. Most of this absorbed energy is lost as heat and thereby contributes to the warming of near-surface waters. Here we examine this biothermal feedback effect on upper ocean physics and air-sea energy exchange using a fully integrated ocean-atmosphere-biologica...
متن کاملRelationships between the stable isotopic signatures of living and fossil foraminifera in Monterey Bay, California
[1] Fossil foraminifera are critical to paleoceanographic reconstructions including estimates of past episodes of methane venting. These reconstructions rely on benthic foraminifera incorporating and retaining unaltered the ambient isotopic compositions of pore fluids and bottom waters. Comparisons are made here of isotopic compositions of abundant live and fossil foraminifera (Uvigerina peregr...
