The Late Quaternary Flow Through the Bering Strait Has Been Forced by the Southern Ocean Winds
Because North and South America are surrounded by water, they constitute together a gigantic island whose peripheral sea level is controlled by the winds east of the island, winds along the western boundary of the island, the freshwater fiux, and the meridional overturning cell. This idea has been expressed in several articles where a series of analytical models show that the Bering Strait (BS)...
متن کاملRole of the Bering Strait in the thermohaline circulation and abrupt climate change
[1] Here we investigate the role of the Bering Strait (BS) in the thermohaline circulation (THC) response to added freshwater forcing (hosing) in the subpolar North Atlantic, through analyzing simulations of a fully coupled climate model with an open and closed BS. Results show that the THC declines similarly with an open and closed BS during hosing. However, the recovery of the THC is delayed ...
متن کاملPrevalence and Phylogeny of Coronaviruses in Wild Birds from the Bering Strait Area (Beringia)
Coronaviruses (CoVs) can cause mild to severe disease in humans and animals, their host range and environmental spread seem to have been largely underestimated, and they are currently being investigated for their potential medical relevance. Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) belongs to gamma-coronaviruses and causes a costly respiratory viral disease in chickens. The role of wild birds in the e...
متن کاملOptimization of the High-Frequency Radar Sites in the Bering Strait Region
Monitoring surface currents by coastal high-frequency radars (HFRs) is a cost-effective observational technique with good prospects for further development. An important issue in improving the efficiency of HFR systems is the optimization of radar positions on the coastline. Besides being constrained by environmental and logistic factors, such optimizationhas to account for prior knowledge of l...
متن کاملCold Acclimatization in Eskimo
0 N EXPOSURE to cold the body has a complicated physiological problem to solve. There is a limit to the heat it can produce to provide for an increased heat loss and during exposure of much severity a heat deficit is incurred. While peripheral tissues are cooling, the central body temperature must be kept within a very narrow range if the function of vital organs is to be maintained. If the acc...
