The annual cycle of air-sea fluxes in the northwest tropical Atlantic
(Frontiers Media, 2021-01-15)In this article we analyze 11 years of near-surface meteorology using observations from an open-ocean surface mooring located in the Northwestern Tropical Atlantic (51°W, 15°N). Air-sea fluxes of heat, freshwater, and ... -
Vertical movements of a pelagic thresher shark (Alopias pelagicus): insights into the species' physiological limitations and trophic ecology in the Red Sea
(Inter Research, 2020-12-03)The pelagic thresher shark Alopias pelagicus is an understudied elasmobranch harvested in commercial fisheries of the tropical Indo-Pacific. The species is endangered, overexploited throughout much of its range, and has a ... -
The influence of an eddy in the success rates and distributions of passively advected or actively swimming biological organisms crossing the continental slope
(American Meteorological Society, 2020-06-29)The Lagrangian characteristics of the surface flow field arising when an idealized, anticyclonic, mesoscale, isolated deep-ocean eddy collides with continental slope and shelf topography are explored. In addition to fluid ... -
Competing effects of spreading rate, crystal fractionation and source variability on Fe isotope systematics in mid-ocean ridge lavas
(Nature Research, 2021-02-18)Two-thirds of the Earth is covered by mid-ocean ridge basalts, which form along a network of divergent plate margins. Basalts along these margins display a chemical diversity, which is consequent to a complex interplay of ... -
Near-surface salinity reveals the oceanic sources of moisture for Australian precipitation through atmospheric moisture transport
(American Meteorological Society, 2020-07-01)The long-term trend of sea surface salinity (SSS) reveals an intensification of the global hydrological cycle due to human-induced climate change. This study demonstrates that SSS variability can also be used as a measure ... -
Counts of zootaxa collected in artificial seagrass in San Diego Bay, CA from 2012-2013 (Eelgrass Hab Fragmentation project)
(Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO). Contact: bco-dmo-data@whoi.edu, 2021-04-15)Counts of zootaxa collected in artificial seagrass in San Diego Bay, CA from 2012-2013 For a complete list of measurements, refer to the full dataset description in the supplemental file 'Dataset_description.pdf'. The ... -
The evolution of a buoyant river plume in response to a pulse of high discharge from a small midlatitude river
(American Meteorological Society, 2020-07-01)A unique feature of small mountainous rivers is that discharge can be elevated by an order of magnitude during a large rain event. The impact of time-varying discharge on freshwater transport pathways and alongshore ... -
Cancelation of deglacial thermosteric sea level rise by a barosteric effect
(American Meteorological Society, 2020-12-01)Sea level rise over the last deglaciation is dominated by the mass of freshwater added to the oceans by the melting of the great ice sheets. While the steric effect of changing seawater density is secondary over the last ... -
Seafloor incubation experiment with deep-sea hydrothermal vent fluid reveals effect of pressure and lag time on autotrophic microbial communities
(American Society for Microbiology, 2021-04-13)Depressurization and sample processing delays may impact the outcome of shipboard microbial incubations of samples collected from the deep sea. To address this knowledge gap, we developed a remotely operated vehicle ... -
Concentrations of dissolved micronutrient trace metals (Fe, Zn, Ni, Cu, Cd, Pb, Mn) in seawater, sea ice, and melt ponds collected during the US GEOTRACES Arctic cruise (HLY1502; GN01) on USCGC Healy from August to October 2015
