Lava Geochemistry as a Probe into Crustal Formation at the East Pacific Rise [PDF]
Oceanography, 2012 Basalt lavas comprise the greatest volume of volcanic rocks on Earth, and most of them erupt along the world's mid-ocean ridges (MORs). These MOR basalts (MORBs) are generally thought to be relatively homogeneous in composition over large segments of the

Velocity sections of the upper mantle under the oceans
Геофизический журнал, 2016 We constructed the models of the distribution of longitudinal seismic waves velocities for the upper mantle oceanic regions: mid-ocean ridges (MOR), basins, trenches, island arcs and coastal ridges, back-arc troughs (BAT).

Contrasting life‐history strategies of three sympatric icefish species in the northern Scotia Sea
Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Comprehending a species' life‐history strategies is crucial to inform effective conservation efforts. Commercial fishing impacts icefish (family: Channichthyidae) in the Scotia Sea, but detailed information on species‐specific life histories remains largely unknown.

The Prediction, Verification, and Significance of Flank Jets at Mid-Ocean Ridges [PDF]
Oceanography, 2012 One aspect of ocean flow over mid-ocean ridges that has escaped much attention is the capacity of a ridge to convert oscillatory flows into unidirectional flows.

Meso- and Bathypelagic Fish Interactions with Seamounts and Mid-Ocean Ridges [PDF]
, 2007 The World Ocean\u27s midwaters contain the vast majority of Earth\u27s vertebrates in the form of mesoand bathypelagic (\u27deep-pelagic,\u27 in the combined sense) fishes.

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Ginglymostoma cirratum, commonly known as the nurse shark, is a nocturnally active benthic shark, often found in western and eastern Atlantic waters. Although this shark has been well explored in many biological aspects, few studies have thoroughly examined the morphology of its dermal denticles (or placoid scales).

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Knowledge on the ecology and life‐history traits of coastal marine species is vital to inform their conservation and management, especially as their coastal habitats come under increasing threats. However, such data have never been collated for four of the five families in the suborder Syngnathoidei—the close relatives of the better‐studied ...

The Lau Basin Float Experiment (LAUB-FLEX) [PDF]
Oceanography, 2012 Before 2004, little was known about deep ocean circulation in the Lau Basin, a semi-enclosed basin in the South Pacific Ocean, about 1,500 km north of New Zealand.

Journal of Fish Biology, EarlyView.Abstract Coryphaenoides Gunnerus, 1765 comprises 66 valid species of deep‐sea fishes commonly known as grenadiers, with 6 previously reported from Brazilian waters. Here, we make the first records for Coryphaenoides striaturus and Coryphaenoides subserrulatus on the Brazilian continental slope. Both species are distributed in the subtropical regions of
