Mesoscale Circulation and Coral Community Disturbance at Isolated Reefs

Global Change Biology Communications, EarlyView.
The Loop Current is a seasonally and interannually dynamic mesoscale oceanographic feature in the Gulf of Mexico that strongly influences connectivity and environmental conditions across the region. We investigated the influence of Loop Current variability on coral reef disturbances at isolated reefs in the northwest Gulf, including coral disease ...

The Next Decade of Seismic Oceanography: Possibilities, Challenges and Solutions

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022
Seismic reflection profiling of thermohaline structure has the potential to transform our understanding of oceanic mixing and circulation. This profiling, which is known as seismic oceanography, yields acoustic images that extend from the sea surface to ...

Holocene climate oscillations, seismotectonic events and human–environmental interactions reconstructed from the Giannades palaeolake on Corfu (Eastern Mediterranean, Greece)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Mediterranean is particularly sensitive to rapid climate changes (RCCs) during the Holocene. An increasing number of natural climate archives revealed that socio‐economic developments were influenced by such RCCs since the Palaeolithic. However, multi‐millennial and high‐resolution archives are still rare and often located in mountainous ...

Challenges and Opportunities in the Integrated Economic and Oceanographic Analysis of Deoxygenation Impacts on Marine Fisheries and Ecosystems

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering
We argue that a multidisciplinary approach is essential to identify deoxygenation impacts on marine ecosystems and fisheries, bridging across the traditionally separate fields of oceanography and economics.

The Impact of MPOWIR: A Decade of Investing in Mentoring Women in Physical Oceanography

, 2014
Women began to join US oceanographic expeditions in about 1960, contemporary with the modern women’s rights movements in the industrialized world. Female representation in academic research has increased since then, but the ratio of women to men at ...

Does Palsa Thaw in Northern Finland Contribute to Remobilisation of Metals Accumulated in Peat Into Surface Waters?

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Permafrost is rapidly degrading in the sporadic zone, including palsa mires in Scandinavia. Peatlands in the area have likely accumulated heavy metals from atmospheric deposition of industrial contaminants in the wider region. As the palsa mire chemical composition is not well known, and in other permafrost regions the permafrost thaw may ...

Combining multibeam and single beam echosounders for quantifying gas bubble release from the seafloor

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Marine gas bubble release is a worldwide phenomenon that impacts the local marine ecosystem and contributes to carbon fluxes with respect to global warming. It is still challenging to assess gas flow for large seep areas (tens of km2), but recent advances in calibrating and processing multibeam echosounder (MBES) data make this problem ...

A prototype submersible sheathless flow cytometer designed for autonomous platforms

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Development of submersible flow cytometers has allowed for continuous, in situ measurements of natural assemblages of phytoplankton cells. Here we introduce DeepCyte, a sensitive prototype submersible flow cytometer developed for deployment on autonomous platforms.

Relationships between acoustic scattering layers and ocean stratification: An acoustic approach to estimate mixed layer depth

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.
Abstract Ocean stratification, measured as mixed layer depth (MLD), is an important feature that influences many processes in the ocean; for example, by mediating the fluxes of momentum, heat and crucially key gases such as CO2 and oxygen from the atmosphere into the water column and vice versa. The conventional methods to measure stratification (e.g.,
