Time dependent flow of Atlantic water on the continental slope of the Beaufort Sea based on moorings
(American Geophysical Union, 2021-05-26)The flow and transformation of warm, salty Atlantic-origin water (AW) in the Arctic Ocean plays an important role in the global overturning circulation that helps regulate Earth's climate. The heat that it transports also ... -
Substantial sea surface temperature cooling in the Banda Sea associated with the Madden-Julian Oscillation in the boreal winter of 2015
(American Geophysical Union, 2021-05-30)Substantial (∼2°C) basin averaged sea surface temperature (SST) cooling in the Banda Sea occurred in less than a 14-day period during the 2015 boreal winter Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO). Such rapid and large cooling ... -

Fluid flow with three upstream configurations in freezing tubes
(American Geophysical Union, 2021-05-17)The accumulation of frozen liquid around a central passageway of melt as it flows through a freezing region can make calculations very challenging. To both illustrate and to quantify some of these challenges from freezing, ... -
Deltas in arid environments
(MDPI, 2021-06-16)Due to increasing water use, diversion and salinization, along with subsidence and sea-level rise, deltas in arid regions are shrinking worldwide. Some of the most ecologically important arid deltas include the Colorado, ... -
Timing of iceberg scours and massive ice-rafting events in the subtropical North Atlantic
(Nature Research, 2021-06-16)High resolution seafloor mapping shows extraordinary evidence that massive (>300 m thick) icebergs once drifted >5,000 km south along the eastern United States, with >700 iceberg scours now identified south of Cape Hatteras. ... -
Microbial bioindicators of Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease identified in corals and overlying waters using a rapid field-based sequencing approach
(Society for Applied Microbiology, 2021-08-25)Stony Coral Tissue Loss Disease (SCTLD) is a devastating disease. Since 2014, it has spread along the entire Florida Reef Tract and into the greater Caribbean. It was first detected in the United States Virgin Islands in ... -
Metal uptake rates of the polar diatom Chaetoceros RS19 in +Zn and +Co incubation studies from January 2020 (MM Saito project)
