W.H.O.I./Brown conductivity, temperature, and depth microprofiler
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1978-02)A Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) profiler has been designed to make precise fine scale measurements of these physical parameters in the ocean. This CTD system consists of a shipboard Data Terminal deck unit ... -
Wind stress on the ocean over the eastern continental shelf of North America
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1978-07)Employing one million ship reports gathered in the years 1941-72 seasonal averages of the wind stress and its standard deviation have been computed for the shelf region of the eastern North American continent (out to a ... -
Diversity and toxicity of Pseudo-nitzschia species in Monterey Bay : perspectives from targeted and adaptive sampling
(2018-08)Monterey Bay, California experiences near-annual blooms of Pseudo-nitzschia that can affect marine animal health and the economy, including impacts to tourism and commercial/recreational fisheries. One species in particular, ... -
Shapes of deep density-depth curves
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1978-04)Deep density-depth curves often show faint curvature reversals, stability maxima, etc. Relationships between these features and the field of motion are explored here, in reference to the South Paclfic, for interior regions ... -

An acoustic sensor of velocity for benthic boundary layer studies
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1978-04)The techniques of flow measurement which have been successful in laboratory studies of boundary layer turbulence are difficult to use in the ocean; and the current meters penerally used in the ocean are not suited ... -
On the deep general circulation in the western North Atlantic
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1978-04)Very large (5-10 cm s-1) long-term averaged zonal flows have been observed near 4000 m depth in the vicinity of a recently hypothesized (Worthington, in press) horizontally restricted subtropical gyre in the deep western ... -
The dynamics of the bottom boundary layer of the deep ocean
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1978-04)Profiles of salinity and temperature from the center of the Hatteras Abyssal Plain have a signature that is characteristic of mixing up a uniformly stratified region: a well-mixed layer above the bottom, bounded by an ... -
Targeted metabolomics reveals proline as a major osmolyte in the chemolithoautotroph Sulfurimonas denitrificans
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018-02-09)Chemoautotrophic bacteria belonging to the genus Sulfurimonas in the class Campylobacteria are widespread in many marine environments characterized by redox interfaces, yet little is known about their physiological ... -
Impact of pore fluid chemistry on fine‐grained sediment fabric and compressibility
(John Wiley & Sons, 2018-07-17)Fines, defined here as grains or particles, less than 75 μm in diameter, exist nearly ubiquitously in natural sediment, even those classified as coarse. Macroscopic sediment properties, such as compressibility, which relates ...
