Modeling events of sea-surface variability using spectral nudging in an eddy permitting model of the northeast Pacific Ocean
(2006-06)
[ 1] Eddies are an important part of the current system that hugs the coasts of British Columbia and Alaska. The ability of "spectral nudging'' to improve the eddy statistics determined from model simulations of this current ...
Predicting the frequency of storm surges and extreme sea levels in the northwest Atlantic
(2006-10)
[1] A 40 year hindcast of storm surges in the northwest Atlantic and adjacent shelf seas is performed using a 2-D nonlinear barotropic ocean model forced by realistic 6 hourly winds and air pressures. This hindcast is used ...
A seasonal study of methyl bromide concentrations in the North Atlantic (35 degrees-60 degrees N)
(2006-04)
Methyl bromide concentrations in and over the North Atlantic were examined during spring, summer, and fall 2003. The results demonstrate that seasonality plays a great role in controlling methyl bromide fluxes from and ...
Seismic velocity structure of the rifted margin of the eastern Grand Banks of Newfoundland, Canada
(2006-11)
[ 1] We present a compressional seismic velocity profile of the crust of the eastern margin of the Grand Banks of Newfoundland, Canada. This velocity model was obtained by a tomographic inversion of wide-angle data recorded ...
Distribution of N2O in the Baltic Sea during transition from anoxic to oxic conditions
(2006)
In January 2003, a major inflow of cold and oxygen-rich North Sea Water terminated an ongoing stagnation period in parts of the central Baltic Sea. In order to investigate the role of North Sea Water inflow in the production ...
Nitrous oxide in the North Atlantic Ocean
(2006)
In order to get a comprehensive picture of the distribution of nitrous oxide (N(2)O) in the North Atlantic Ocean, measurements of dissolved nitrous oxide were made during three cruises in the tropical, subtropical and ...
High frequency acoustic observations of episodic mixing events in Lunenburg Bay
(Canadian Acoust. Assoc, 2006-12)
High frequency (0.6-5 MHz) acoustic backscatter data has been collected during the past four years (2002-2006) at Dalhousie's coastal ocean observing system at Lunenburg Bay (www.cmep.ca). Severe storm events, including ...
Assessment of the processes controlling seasonal variations of dissolved inorganic carbon in the North Sea
(2006-11)
We used a seasonal North Sea data set comprising dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC), partial pressure of CO2 (pCO(2)), and inorganic nutrients to assess the abiotic and biological processes governing the monthly variations ...
Assimilating long-term hydrographic information into an eddy-permitting model of the North Atlantic
(American Geophysical Union, Washington, DC, 2006-09)

Evidence for asymmetric nonvolcanic rifting and slow incipient oceanic accretion from seismic reflection data on the Newfoundland margin
(2006-09)
[ 1] Prestack depth migrations of seismic reflection data collected around the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) Leg 210 transect on the Newfoundland nonvolcanic margin delineate three domains: ( 1) extended continental crust, ...
