RRS Discovery Cruise DY017, 20 Oct - 05 Nov 2014. Outer Hebrides process cruise [PDF]

, 2015
The continental shelf region immediately west of the UK and North of Ireland is thought to be a key region for the exchange of nutrients, carbon and water between the NW European continental shelf and the open North Atlantic Ocean yet it remains ...

Early deglaciation history of the southeastern Baffin Island shelf (Eastern Canadian Arctic Archipelago)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During the last glacial period, the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) was the largest terrestrial ice sheet on Earth. Its evolution since the Last Glacial Maximum profoundly influenced Earth's geodynamics and surface processes. Investigating the past dynamics of the LIS provides critical insights into how contemporary ice sheets may respond to ...

Planting the Flag in Arctic Waters: Russia's Claim to the North Pole

Göttingen Journal of International Law, 2009
With its demonstrative setting of a Russian Flag in the seabed in the Arctic Ocean outside the 200 nautical miles limitation of the continental shelf in 2007, the Russian Federation has fuelled discussions on claims concerning the outer continental ...

Seabed classification in the Gulf of Alaska from acoustic surveys using deep learning

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐resolution mapping of seafloor habitats has wide applications for fisheries, conservation efforts, offshore infrastructure planning, mineral extraction, and scientific modeling. This study leverages existing widespread single‐beam acoustic data and machine learning to create habitat maps for the Gulf of Alaska at a spatial resolution of ...

Performance of a glider‐mounted multifrequency echosounder for measuring the vertical distribution and abundance of large pelagic copepods

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract The difficulty of sampling zooplankton communities in situ has driven advancements in autonomous, remote sensing technology. The goal of this paper was to perform a gear comparison study testing the performance of one such piece of technology—a glider‐mounted four‐frequency echosounder—against traditional shipboard methods of measuring ...

Sampling effort to characterize estuarine macroinfaunal communities in patchy habitats

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Estuarine benthic macroinfauna have aggregated, patchy distributions, making accurate community measurements dependent upon sampling scales. The purpose of this study is to determine the appropriate core sizes and sampling effort needed to characterize benthic infaunal communities in Corpus Christi Bay, Texas, USA.

Individual movement modeling expands the power of migratory species observations: North Atlantic right whale case study

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Understanding a population's distribution depends on observing the presence and movement of individuals throughout their range. For highly mobile marine species, these observations typically rely on high effort monitoring programs. Tracking enough individuals to understand trends in movement behavior is not always logistically feasible, and ...
