Estimating the monthly pCO(2) distribution in the North Atlantic using a self-organizing neural network
(2009)
Here we present monthly, basin-wide maps of the partial pressure of carbon dioxide (pCO(2)) for the North Atlantic on a 1 degrees latitude by 1 degrees longitude grid for years 2004 through 2006 inclusive. The maps have ...
Methyl iodide in the NW Atlantic; spatial and seasonal variation
(American Geophysical Union, Washington, DC, 2009)
While the global ocean is an important source of atmospheric methyl iodide (CH (sub 3) I), the major producers of CH (sub 3) I within the ocean remain unclear. During a seasonal study in the NW Atlantic, the relationship ...
Carbon cycling in the Arctic Archipelago: the export of Pacific carbon to the North Atlantic
(European Geosciences Union, 2009-01)
The Arctic Ocean is expected to be disproportionately sensitive to climatic changes, and is thought to be an area where such changes might be detected. The Arctic hydrological cycle is influenced by: runoff and precipitation, ...
Ocean Fertilization Science, Policy, and Commerce
(2009-09)
Over the past 20 years there has been growing interest in the concept of fertilizing the ocean with iron to abate global warming. This interest was catalyzed by basic scientific experiments showing that iron limits primary ...
Predicting mesoscale variability of the North Atlantic using a physically motivated scheme for assimilating altimeter and Argo observations
(American Meteorological Society, 2009-07)
A computationally efficient scheme is described for assimilating sea level measured by altimeters and vertical profiles of temperature and salinity measured by Argo floats. The scheme is based on a transformation of ...
Water Column Seismic Images as Maps of Temperature Gradient
(2009-03)
Multichannel seismic imaging of ocean water column features is anew interdisciplinary study that may become an accepted oceanographic toot in coming years. We now know that reflectors are associated with water column ...
Probability and mitigation of vessel encounters with North Atlantic right whales
(Inter-Research, Nordbuente 23 Oldendorf/Luhe 21385 Germany, 2009-03)
Successful mitigation of vessel-whale encounters requires quantitative estimates of vessel strikes, how strike rates change over time, where strikes are most likely to occur, and options for minimizing strikes. In addressing ...
Methyl iodide in the NW Atlantic: Spatial and seasonal variation
(2009-07)
While the global ocean is an important source of atmospheric methyl iodide (CH(3)I), the major producers of CH(3)I within the ocean remain unclear. During a seasonal study in the NW Atlantic, the relationship between CH(3)I ...
