Foraminiferal Mn/Ca as bottom-water hypoxia proxy: an assessment of Nonionella stella in the Santa Barbara Basin, USA
(American Geophysical Union, 2021-10-18)Hypoxia is of increasing concern in marine areas, calling for a better understanding of mechanisms leading to decreasing dissolved oxygen concentrations ([O2]). Much can be learned about the processes and implications of ... -
Polarization of ocean acoustic normal modes
(Acoustical Society of America, 2021-09-15)In ocean acoustics, shallow water propagation is conveniently described using normal mode propagation. This article proposes a framework to describe the polarization of normal modes, as measured using a particle velocity ... -
Surf Zone Turbulence and suspended sediment dynamics-a review
(MDPI, 2021-11-20)The existence of sandy beaches relies on the onshore transport of sand by waves during post-storm conditions. Most operational sediment transport models employ wave-averaged terms, and/or the instantaneous cross-shore ... -
High larval concentrations and onshore transport of barnacle cyprids associated with thermal stratification
(Frontiers Media, 2021-11-02)To better understand the hydrodynamic and hydrographic conditions experienced by larvae in the nearshore (within 1 km of shore), and the role that larval behavior plays in mediating shoreward transport to adult benthic ... -
Detection and quantification of a release of carbon dioxide gas at the seafloor using pH eddy covariance and measurements of plume advection
(Elsevier, 2021-10-22)We detected a controlled release of CO2 (g) with pH eddy covariance. We quantified CO2 emission using measurements of water velocity and pH in the plume of aqueous CO2 generated by the bubble streams, and using model ... -
Dissolved gas sensing using an anti-resonant hollow core optical fiber
(Optical Society of America, 2021-11-15)Sensors that measure dissolved gases directly are needed for environmental, industrial, and biomedical applications. Here we present a hollow core fiber optic sensor capable of measuring dissolved methane gas in liquids ... -
Tracking a surrogate hazardous agent (Rhodamine Dye) in a coastal ocean environment using In Situ measurements and concentration estimates derived from drone images
(MDPI, 2021-11-02)New tools and technology are needed to track hazardous agents such as oil and red tides in our oceans. Rhodamine dye (a surrogate hazardous agent) was released into the Atlantic ocean in August 2018, and experiments were ... -
A visual tour of carbon export by sinking particles
(American Geophysical Union, 2021-10-06)To better quantify the ocean's biological carbon pump, we resolved the diversity of sinking particles that transport carbon into the ocean's interior, their contribution to carbon export, and their attenuation with depth. ... -
Canadian Arctic Archipelago shelf-ocean interactions: a major iron source to Pacific derived waters transiting to the Atlantic
(American Geophysical Union, 2021-09-20)Continental shelves are important sources of iron (Fe) in the land-dominated Arctic Ocean. To understand the export of Fe from the Arctic to Baffin Bay (BB) and the North Atlantic, we studied the alteration of the Fe ... -
Designing coastal adaptation strategies to tackle sea level rise
(Frontiers Media, 2021-11-03)Faced with sea level rise and the intensification of extreme events, human populations living on the coasts are developing responses to address local situations. A synthesis of the literature on responses to coastal ... -
Organized and quality-controlled CalCOFI data for CTD casts and bottle measurements from CalCOFI stations between La Jolla, California to Point Conception between 1984-2019
(Biological and Chemical Oceanography Data Management Office (BCO-DMO). Contact: bco-dmo-data@whoi.edu, 2022-01-24)In this dataset, we analyzed daytime casts (09:00-16:00) of both discrete bottle data and continuous CTD casts from CalCOFI stations restricted to an area from La Jolla, California to Point Conception and 215 km maximum ... -

Data in this study are from CalCOFI stations restricted to an area from La Jolla, California to ... -
Gene expression and epigenetic responses of the marine Cladoceran, Evadne nordmanni, and the copepod, Acartia clausi, to elevated CO2
(Wiley Open Access, 2021-11-23)Characterizing the capacity of marine organisms to adapt to climate change related drivers (e.g., pCO2 and temperature), and the possible rate of this adaptation, is required to assess their resilience (or lack thereof) ... -
