Three hundred eighty thousand year long stable isotope and faunal records from the Red Sea : influence of global sea level change on hydrography

, 1996
Stable isotope and faunal records from the central Red Sea show high-amplitude oscillations for the past 380,000 years. Positive δ18O anomalies indicate periods of significant salt buildup during periods of lowered sea level when water mass exchange with

Improving the Modeling of Sea Surface Currents in the Persian Gulf and the Oman Sea Using Data Assimilation of Satellite Altimetry and Hydrographic Observations

Remote Sensing, 2022
Sea surface currents are often modeled using numerical models without adequately addressing the issue of model calibration at the regional scale. The aim of this study is to calibrate the MIKE 21 numerical ocean model for the Persian Gulf and the Oman ...

Ontogeny of murine bony semicircular canal form

The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The labyrinthine geometry and functional anatomy of the semicircular canals have intrigued scientists for decades, and there has been considerable interest in understanding how these complex structures grow and develop with evidence emerging from human studies that size maturation occurs exceptionally early by comparison with other systems ...

Masirah – the other Oman ophiolite: A better analogue for mid-ocean ridge processes? [PDF]

, 2017
Oman has two ophiolites – the better known late Cretaceous northern Oman (or Semail) ophiolite and the lesser known and smaller, Jurassic Masirah ophiolite located on the eastern coast of the country adjacent to the Indian Ocean.

Flight of the dragons: a global review of migration in Odonata

Biological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Insects are the most abundant and ecologically important animal migrants. Yet, we know relatively little about the patterns and processes underlying insect migration. Dragonflies (Anisoptera) and damselflies (Zygoptera) comprise the ancient insect order Odonata, whose ancestors were the first organisms to fly on Earth.

Satellite altimetry reveals 6-month seasonal phase difference and post-2000 IOD linkages in Arabian–Oman Gulf sea level communication

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk
The major settlements along the coastal areas of the Arabian and the Oman Gulf are vulnerable to sea level rise. Therefore, studying sea level variability cannot only assist in understanding the local ocean dynamics but also provide valuable insight that

Spatiotemporal scales of mode water transformation in the Sea of Oman [PDF]

Ocean Science
Abstract. In the Sea of Oman, mode water forms at the surface and is trapped under a warm stratified layer in summer. This capped and well-mixed oxygenated layer decouples the oxygen minimum zone from ocean surface processes. It also provides a space for remineralisation, reducing oxygen demand in the oxygen minimum zone.

Complex Firms, Controversial Outcomes: Global Evidence on ESG Failures and Remedies

Business Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We examine whether business complexity increases firms' exposure to negative environmental, social, and governance (ESG) outcomes, specifically ESG controversies, using a global panel of firms from 37 countries over the period 2002–2021.
