Subtidal Cross - Shelf Circulation on the Northern California Shelf
Moored time series from the Coastal Ocean Dynamics Experiment (CODE), Shelf Mixed Layer Experiment (SMILE), Sediment Transport Events over the Shelf and Slope (STRESS) study, and Northern California Coastal Circulation Study (NCCCS) are used to study subtidal cross-shelf circulation over the northern California shelf. The northern California shelf, like much of the United States Pacific coast, ...
متن کاملUpwelling influence on the Galician coast: silicate in shelf water and underlying surface sediments
-Local characteristics in the upwelling of Galicia (NW Iberian Peninsula) are studied in terms of dissolved silicate patterns in the seawater column and opal distribution in the sediments. Freshwater input, upwelling, remineralization and sedimentation are considered. The freshwater silicate input is not important during the upwelling season. Upwelling is the main process controlling silicate b...
متن کاملMineral chemistry, thermobarometry, petrogenesis and tectonic setting of the Nokeh intrusion in the northern Semnan (Central Iran)
The Nokeh intrusion exposed in the northern Semnan area. The intrusion is composed of monzonite-quartz monzonite and granite-granodiorite and was intruded in the Eocene carbonaceous tuffs, where the country rocks converted to magnetite-skarn. Plagioclase, orthoclase, quartz, biotite, amphibole and clinopyroxene are the constituent minerals of Nokeh intrusion. The study rocks represent granular,...
متن کاملSpatial and temporal changes in benthic communities of the Galician continental shelf after the Prestige oil spill.
Two years after the Prestige oil spill (POS) an assessment of the effects on benthic fauna was carried out using the data obtained in five multidisciplinary surveys. Otter trawl, beam trawl, suprabenthic sled and box corer were used to study the main benthic compartments, along eight transects perpendicular to the coastline. Beam trawl was also employed to quantify the amount of tar aggregates ...
متن کاملNumerical 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...
