The majestic glory of fjords: geomorphometry and sedimentology of selected fjords on Cumberland Peninsula and the northeast coast of Baffin Island.

open access: yes, 2021
This thesis presents a morphometric database of 13 parameters across 29 Baffin Island fjords, and the postglacial sedimentology and chronology of three fjords on Cumberland Peninsula.

Wind-Generated Waves in Fjords and Coastal Areas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2021
Accurate predictions of coastal and fjord wave conditions are vital for several sectors such as fish farming, fisheries, as well as coastal and maritime infrastructure.

Impact of Fjord Geometry on Grounding Line Stability

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2018
Recent and past retreat of marine-terminating glaciers are broadly consistent with observed ocean warming, yet responses vary significantly within regions experiencing similar ocean conditions. We assess how fjord geometry modulates glacier response to a

Stable Bacterial Cores and Patchy Eukaryotic Communities Shape the Summer Microbiomes of Patagonian Fjord Ecosystems Across Spatial, Functional and Temporal Gradients [PDF]

open access: yesEnviron Microbiol Rep
Our study shows that microbial community diversity in Patagonian fjords varies with glacial influence and salinity, with a widespread bacterial core but a patchier eukaryotic core. Distinct co‐occurrence networks and marked short‐term community shifts occur in water‑ versus land‐terminating glacier fjords, underscoring meltwater influence in this ...

Glass eels and viruses – a lesson learnt from stocking the eastern German Baltic Sea coast

open access: yesTransboundary and Emerging Diseases, Accepted Article., 2022
Abstract Concerns about Anguillid herpesvirus 1 (AngHV‐1) in European eels, especially due to stocking measures, is increasingly coming into focus and raises questions regarding disease monitoring and prevention. In the past, stocking of AngHV‐1‐positive eels into waters assumed AngHV‐1‐free has led to a rapid increase of infected eels in the wild. For

Submarine geomorphology of the northeastern Baffin Island fiords and cross-shelf troughs

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2019
This paper presents a series of 50 geomorphological maps of the seabed of northeastern Baffin Island fiords and cross-shelf troughs, in eastern Arctic Canada. The mapping was produced using swath bathymetry imagery from multiple bathymetry datasets.

Hydrographic features of Magellan and Fuegian inland passages and adjacent Subantarctic waters

open access: yesScientia Marina, 1999
Hydrographic features and bottom profiles along the main passages from Paso Ancho in the Straits of Magellan to the Beagle Channel and those of adjacent oceanic waters are examined with regard to water origin and circulation.

Fjords

open access: yes, 1987
Fjords are both an interface and a buffer between glaciated continents and the oceans. They exhibit a very wide range in environmental conditions, both in dynamics and geography.

Pockmarks in the fjords of Chilean Patagonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The fjords of Chilean Patagonia are areas of relatively rapid Holocene sediment delivery from glacial, glacifluvial and fluvial systems. These systems are fed by substantial ice- and snow-melt on the flanks of the Andean mountains.
