Sediments of the Gulf of Maine: ABSTRACT

AAPG Bulletin, 1965
The Gulf of Maine is a rectangular depression on the continental shelf about 180 miles long and 120 miles wide. Georges Bank, Browns Bank, and the Nova Scotian Shelf, all shallower than 100 meters, separate the Gulf from the Atlantic Ocean to the southeast. Glacial scouring has accentuated the highly irregular bottom topography, and numerous basins 200

Triassic Rift Structure in Gulf of Maine

AAPG Bulletin, 1975
Interpretation of seismic-reflection profiles across the Gulf of Maine and Georges Bank reveals that the region underwent major crustal rifting during the Triassic Period. Three rift systems are delineated: the Fundy fault system extending southwest from the Bay of Fundy to the central Gulf of Maine, the Wilkinson basin system striking north-south in ...

Vernal circulation in the Gulf of Maine

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1985
The circulation in the Gulf of Maine has an important baroclinic component. It appears to be driven mostly by the density contrast between high‐salinity slope water which enters from the Atlantic and fresher waters which are formed in the Gulf or which enter from the Scotian shelf.

Seasonal Characterization of Mercury and Organic Matter From the Contaminated Penobscot River to the Gulf of Maine

Journal of Geophysical Research: Biogeosciences
Mercury (Hg), in the form of methylmercury (MeHg), is a neurotoxin that bioaccumulates in marine organisms and biomagnifies up the food chain. Understanding its behavior in coastal ecosystems is important, especially in fishing grounds such as the Gulf ...

SEISMIC-REFRACTION PROFILE ACROSS THE GULF OF MAINE

Geological Society of America Bulletin, 1953
On August 11, 1949, the USS MENTOR shot one partially reversed refraction profile across the northern Gulf of Maine, from a point southeast of Portland, eastward beyond Matinicus Rock (Fig. 1, shot 13). Three portable seismographs were set up at Falmouth, near Portland, Maine, on Mt. Desert Island, Maine, and at Crowell, Nova Scotia. The Crowell

Foraminiferal Studies: Wilkinson Basin, Gulf of Maine: ABSTRACT

AAPG Bulletin, 1971
Sediment samples from a 280-m core taken in the Wilkinson basin, Gulf of Maine, have been studied for foraminiferal content. The sediments are dusky yellowish-brown silty clay and presumably represent particles carried by glacial meltwater into the Atlantic Ocean during the latest period of continental deglaciation.
