“ Submesoscale , tidally - induced biogeochemical patterns in the Strait of Gibraltar ”
Tidal forcing and its fortnightly variation are known to be one of the main regulating agents of physical and biogeochemical signatures in the Strait of Gibraltar and surrounding areas. Samples obtained during spring and neap tides in the region were analyzed to determine the influence of this tidal variation on the submesoscale distribution of water masses and biological elements. During sprin...
متن کاملMixing in Haro Strait
The first task after the cruise was to organize and calibrate the large quantities of acoustic and hydrographic data collected by the IOS group. Most of the dataset was then archived onto CD-ROMs to allow for easy distribution among co-investigators. A cruise report containing information about deployments and instrument logs, as well as summarizing preliminary results was written by Rich Pawlo...
متن کاملOcean Mixing and Strait Dynamics
For the last several summers we have conducted observational studies in Juan de Fuca Strait involving one or more bottom-mounted 300 kHz broadband ADCPs, temperature and conductivity moorings, and CTD profiles and “towyos”. Senior Research Associate Richard Dewey assumes much of the responsibility for this, with involvement of graduate and summer students. A current emphasis is on strong strati...
متن کاملLincoln Sea and Nares Strait
A winter phenomenon of ice break-up takes place in Lincoln Sea every year. A previous study based on ERS-1 SAR data has been resumed based on Radarsat data that is briefly reported here. The study of two winters, 1996-1997 and 1997-1998, is supported by wind data. It is found that the ice motion in the area often is driven by wind but also that it is seriously influenced by blocking at the entr...
متن کاملIntraseasonal Kelvin wave in Makassar Strait
[1] Time series observations during 2004–2006 reveal the presence of 60–90 days intraseasonal events that impact the transport and mixing environment within Makassar Strait. The observed velocity and temperature fluctuations within the pycnocline reveal the presence of Kelvin waves including vertical energy propagation, energy equipartition, and nondispersive relationship. Two current meters at...
