Mesoscale and wind-driven intra-annual variability in the East Auckland Current
Scientific Reports, 2021 Intra-annual variability in the East Auckland Current (EAuC) was studied using a year-long timeseries of in situ and remotely-sensed velocity, temperature and salinity observations.

Patterns of deep-water coral diversity in the Caribbean Basin and adjacent southern waters: an approach based on records from the R/V Pillsbury expeditions. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The diversity of deep-water corals in the Caribbean Sea was studied using records from oceanographic expeditions performed by the R/V Pillsbury. Sampled stations were sorted according to broad depth ranges and ecoregions and were analyzed in terms of ...

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 In this paper, the M2 internal tides (ITs) originating from the continental slope in the South China Sea are studied using the CROCO model. The simulation results show that there are two origins of ITs on the continental slope: at 118°–119.5° E along 22°

Geo-hazards of the San Vito peninsula offshore (southwestern Tyrrhenian Sea)
Journal of Maps, 2021 In this paper we present geomorphological hazard mapping of the San Vito Peninsula offshore (Sicilian margin of Tyrrhenian Sea), characterised by a very narrow continental shelf and a very dipping, tectonically active continental slope, no far from a ...

Distribution of dissolved methane in seawater from the East China Sea to the Ryukyu forearc
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 Methane is a greenhouse gas, and the East China Sea acts as a source of emissions to the atmosphere. On the other hand, the distribution of methane concentration in the Ryukyu Arc shelf and forearc region has not been clarified.

Multidecadal warming of Antarctic waters [PDF]
, 2014 Decadal trends in the properties of seawater adjacent to Antarctica are poorly known, and the mechanisms responsible for such changes are uncertain. Antarctic ice sheet mass loss is largely driven by ice shelf basal melt, which is influenced by ocean-ice

OESbathy version 1.0: a method for reconstructing ocean bathymetry with generalized continental shelf-slope-rise structures [PDF]
Geoscientific Model Development, 2015 We present a method for reconstructing global ocean bathymetry that combines a standard plate cooling model for the oceanic lithosphere based on the age of the oceanic crust, global oceanic sediment thicknesses, plus generalized shelf-slope-rise ...

Assemblages of certain benthic molluscs along the southwestern Atlantic: from subtidal to deep sea
BMC Ecology, 2019 Background We analyse the distribution of Gastropods and Chitons from shallow to deep waters along the southwestern Atlantic Ocean off Argentina and discuss possible factors determining the observed biogeographic patterns.
