The rheological behavior of CO2 ice: application to glacial flow on Mars
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2020-10-13)Vast amounts of solid CO2 reside in topographic basins of the south polar layered deposits (SPLD) on Mars and exhibit morphological features indicative of glacial flow. Previous experimental studies showed that coarse-grained ... -
Sea-level rise will drive divergent sediment transport patterns on fore reefs and reef flats, potentially causing erosion on Atoll Islands
(2019-11-12)Atoll reef islands primarily consist of unconsolidated sediment, and their ocean-facing shorelines are maintained by sediment produced and transported across their reefs. Changes in incident waves can alter cross-shore ... -
Increased typhoon activity in the Pacific deep tropics driven by Little Ice Age circulation changes
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2020-09-02)The instrumental record reveals that tropical cyclone activity is sensitive to oceanic and atmospheric variability on inter-annual and decadal scales. However, our understanding of climate’s influence on tropical cyclone ... -
How does viscosity contrast influence phase mixing and strain localization?
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2020-07-07)Ultramylonites—intensely deformed rocks with fine grain sizes and well‐mixed mineral phases—are thought to be a key component of Earth‐like plate tectonics, because coupled phase mixing and grain boundary pinning enable ... -
Hunting Bubbles Falkor Cruise 2019
(Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2019-12-23)The Hunting Bubbles Cruise took place in August-September 2018 on the R/V Falkor (cruise ID 180824). Ship time was provided by the Schmidt Ocean Institute. This cruise investigated transport of methane from seeps located ... -
Causes of oceanic crustal thickness oscillations along a 74-Myr Mid-Atlantic Ridge flow line
(2019-11-12)Gravity, magnetic, and bathymetry data collected along a continuous 1400-km-long spreading-parallel flow line across the Mid-Atlantic Ridge indicate significant tectonic and magmatic fluctuations in the formation of oceanic ... -
Long-Term evolution of non-transform discontinuities at the Mid-Atlantic Ridge, 24°N - 27°30′N
(2018-12)We studied long-term evolution of non-transform discontinuities (NTDs) on the Mid-Atlantic Ridge from 0 to ~20-25 Ma crust using plate reconstructions of multibeam bathymetry, long-range HMR1 sidescan sonar, residual mantle ... -
Supplemental files from “Metazoans of redoxcline sediments in Mediterranean deep-sea hypersaline anoxic basins” (Bernhard et al., submitted, BMC Biology).
(2015-10-05)Link provides access to supplemental tables and figures to our manuscript regarding metazoans of redoxcline sediments in Mediterranean deep-sea hypersaline anoxic basins (DHABs). Specimens shown in supplemental figures are ... -
Global viewport to deep-sea vents : dataset for spherical display systems
(2014-09-11)Spherical display systems, including digital globes, are new technologies increasingly used in both informal and formal education to display global datasets. By creating a narrative using multiple datasets, inter‐disciplinary ... -
Shipboard ADCP profiles, central equatorial Pacific Ocean, 2003-2012
(2014-07-17)This data set contains 23 individual NetCDF files, each containing subsurface zonal and meridional velocity profiles (along with time/space coordinates) measured by shipboard ADCP. -
CTD data from coring cruise R/V Cape Hatteras CH1605 on the continental margin of the South Atlantic Bight and the Bahamas
(2005-06)These CTD data were collected during a nine-day cruise in early June 2005 on the R/V Cape Hatteras (CH09-05; Beaufort, NC – Beaufort, NC). The principal goal of the cruise was to collect foraminiferal “livestock” for ... -
CTD data from coring cruise R/V Oceanus OC424-1 on the continental margin of the South Atlantic Bight and the Bahamas
(2006-05)These CTD data were collected during a twelve-day cruise in May 2006 on the R/V Oceanus (OC-424-1; Woods Hole, MA – Charleston, SC). The principal goal of the cruise was to collect foraminiferal “livestock” for ...
