The ocean takes a deep breath.

چکیده
Deep convection is the major mechanism for replenishing oxygen in the deep interior of the world ocean, and its variability affects the use of atmospheric oxygen to monitor the global carbon cycle. Sensors mounted on autonomous floats allow this episodic breathing of the ocean to be monitored in near real time. The results suggest that the tools are available now to make oxygen a key parameter in marine global change research.

Introduction: Introduction: The respiratory system affects the motor control and stability of the body, especially in the elderly. The present study aimed to determine the effect of diaphragmatic breathing practice on respiratory function, balance, and quality of life in elderly women. Materials and Methods: Forty elderly women with a mean age of 72.40 years participated in this study voluntari...
متن کاملBreath Alcohol Concentration and Breath Temperature
Breath alcohol concentration, breath temperature, and body temperature are used to extrapolate the breath alcohol concentration to the concentration of alcohol in the deep lung air, which is in equilibrium with the pulmonary blood. Introduction The variability that is seen in the breath alcohol test (note: “alcohol” means ethyl alcohol) has always been more or less ignored as inevitable “biolog...
متن کاملLate Cretaceous Ocean: Coupled Simulations with the NCAR CSM
Deep ocean circulation may be a significant factor in determining climate. Here, we describe two long, fully coupled atmosphere-ocean simulations with the NCAR Climate System Model (CSM) for the late Cretaceous (80 Ma). Our results suggest that higher levels of atmospheric CO2 and the altered paleogeography of the late Cretaceous resulted in a surface ocean state temperature, salinity, and circ...
متن کاملCross–Shelf Exchange Along the Antarctic Continental Margin: Modeling Results
The shelf areas around the Antarctic Continent are locations of dense water formation; part of these water masses ventilate the adjacent deep ocean basins and enter the global thermohaline circulation. This paper takes a look at regional differences of shelf sea–deep ocean exchange in high southern latitudes (mainly between the Weddell and Ross Seas), highlights a few physical mechanisms potent...
