A comparison of aggregate profiles with sediment trap fluxes
Abst rac t -Previous work (b.~ us and others) has shown that sediment trap fluxes do not correlate well with the total particulate mass concentration as determined with a t ransmlssometer Sediment traps are thought to collect the settling particles in the marine snow size range (d > 0 5 mm) Cameras ha,~e been developed to quantitatively image particles in the marine snow size range but a correl...
متن کاملThe effect of tilt on sediment trap efficiency
-Cylindrical traps with an aspect ratio of 5.2 were tilted from 0 ° to 70 ° upstream and downstream in the Hudson River with currents ranging between 2 and 62 cm s -~. Particle flux in the tilted traps increased with tilt up to about 45 ° where overcollection reached a maximum factor of three but decreased beyond 45 ° when traps were tilted downstream. There was no discernible velocity effect o...
متن کاملVisual letter matching: hemispheric functioning or scanning biases?
Finding two mixed-case letters that share the same name is easier to do when the letters are presented in opposite visual fields than when they are both in the same field. By contrast, finding a match between two same-case letters is easier when they are in the same field. These visual field effects have been attributed to the ability of the corpus callosum to coordinate the work of the cerebra...
متن کاملOrganism-Sediment Interactions Govern Post-Hypoxia Recovery of Ecosystem Functioning
Hypoxia represents one of the major causes of biodiversity and ecosystem functioning loss for coastal waters. Since eutrophication-induced hypoxic events are becoming increasingly frequent and intense, understanding the response of ecosystems to hypoxia is of primary importance to understand and predict the stability of ecosystem functioning. Such ecological stability may greatly depend on the ...
متن کاملGlobal-local visual processing in high functioning children with autism: structural vs. implicit task biases.
Global-local processing was examined in high-functioning children with autism and in groups of typically developing children. In experiment 1, the effects of structural bias were tested by comparing visual search that favored access to either local or global targets. The children with autism were not unusually sensitive to either level of visual structure. In experiment 2 a structural global bi...
