Southern Ocean warming: Increase in basal melting and grounded ice loss [PDF]

, 2013
We apply a global finite element sea ice/ice shelf/ocean model (FESOM) to the Antarctic marginal seas to analyze projections of ice shelf basal melting in a warmer climate.

New craniodental materials of Falcarius utahensis (Theropoda: Therizinosauria) reveal patterns of intraspecific variation and cranial evolution in early coelurosaurians

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Despite documented ecomorphological shifts toward an herbivorous diet in several coelurosaurian lineages, the evolutionary tempo and mode of these changes remain poorly understood, hampered by sparse cranial materials for early representatives of major clades. This is particularly true for Therizinosauria, with representative crania best known

Seasonal variation of underwater sound propagation in the Beibu Gulf

Frontiers in Marine Science
Variations in the underwater sound speed significantly influence sound propagation in the ocean, thereby impacting both underwater navigation systems and a substantial portion of marine organisms reliant on sound. This study utilizes cruise data from the

Tropical cyclone Wind Pump induced chlorophyll-a enhancement in the South China Sea: A comparison of the open sea and continental shelf

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
The continental shelf and open sea region have different ocean physical and environmental responses to tropical cyclones (TC). The present study firstly compared the grid-based maximum response (GMR) of sea surface chlorophyll a (Chl-a) to TCs Wind Pump ...

A review of the historic and present ecological role of aquatic and shoreline wood, from forest to deep sea

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ecology of forests, their losses, and terrestrial wood decomposition dynamics have been intensively studied and reviewed. In the aquatic realm, reviews have concentrated on large wood (LW) in rivers and the transition from freshwater to marine environments in the Pacific Northwest of North America. However, a comprehensive global synthesis

Impacts of Intraseasonal Oscillations on Tropical Cyclone Rapid Intensification in the Northwestern Pacific During Winter

Remote Sensing
In winter, the northwestern Pacific (NWP) is affected by two atmospheric intraseasonal oscillations (ISOs), the Madden–Julian oscillation (MJO) and the quasi-biweekly oscillation (QBWO).

Gulf Stream Ring Water Intrusion on the Mid-Atlantic Bight Continental Shelf Break Affects Microbially Driven Carbon Cycling

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Warm core, anticyclonic rings that spin off from the Gulf Stream circulate through the region directly offshore of the Mid-Atlantic Bight. If a warm core ring reaches the continental shelf break, its warm, highly saline water may subduct under cooler ...
