A new measurement of CO sub(2) eddy flux in the nearshore atmospheric surface layer
(1991)
Fluxes of CO sub(2) in the atmospheric surface layer have been measured at a shoreline site by the eddy correlation method using a new CO sub(2) sensor with greater sensitivity than the ones used in earlier studies. In ...
Variations in heat flow across the Goban Spur and Galicia Bank continental margins
(1991)
Presents the results of 44 new heat flow stations which were taken in 1984 and 1989 in profiles across the Goban Spur and Galicia Bank continental margins (NE Atlantic Ocean). Simple extensional models indicate that the ...
Phytoplankton Growth and Light-Absorption as Regulated by Light, Temperature, and Nutrients
(1991-12)
Numerous studies of the growth of phytoplankton in the laboratory have demonstrated the dependence of cellular pigment concentration and growth rate upon light intensity, photoperiod, temperature, and nutrient supply. These ...
Hypotheses to Explain High-Nutrient Conditions in the Open Sea
(1991-12)
Oceanic high-nutrient, low-chlorophyll waters are characterized principally by the persistence of major nutrients at the sea surface. This condition indicates control of autotrophic production by something other than NO3 ...
An Observational Study of the Energy-Transfer between the Seasonal Mean Flow and Transient Eddies
(1991-03)
The large-scale energetics of the Northern Hemisphere atmospheric motions are computed in the frequency domain using a 5-year data set from the ECMWF operational analyses. The geographical distributions of kinetic energy ...
