Water masses and faunal movements
Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B. Biological Sciences, 1960Abstract H. Brattström (Zoology Department, University of Bergen) I should like to underline what Professor Dahl and Professor Knox have said: that there seems not to exist, in western South America, a marked border between a cold and a warm temperate zone.

Water Security and Mass Migration
2020Abstract The world faces an unprecedented human migration crisis, as hundreds of thousands flee famine, poverty, and violence in many parts of the globe. While the movement of these people from one country to another can appear, on the surface, as a response to current events, these migrations can perhaps be best understood with an ...

Virtual Mass of Cylinders in Water
Journal of the Hydraulics Division, 1972The purpose of these experiments was to study the virtual mass of cylinders in linear acceleration in water and to offer some generalizations concerning the behavior of such cylinders.

“NO”, a conservative water-mass tracer
Earth and Planetary Science Letters, 1974Abstract A composite property, 9NO 3 + O 2 , is proposed as a conservative water-mass tracer. The coefficient 9 is chosen so that the increase in “NO” resulting from nitrate introduction during respiration just balances the consumption of dissolved oxygen gas.

Lateral mixing of water masses
Deep Sea Research and Oceanographic Abstracts, 1967Abstract The vertical transport of heat and salt in the “salt-finger” convective regime can be enhanced by the vertical shear of a “medium” scale motion. A weak shear converts compensating temperature-salinity variations on isopycnal surfaces into strong vertical T-S gradients.

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1953
Abstract It was shown by Stokes that in a water wave the particles of fluid possess, apart from their orbital motion, a steady second-order drift velocity (usually called the mass-transport velocity). Recent experiments, however, have indicated that the mass-transport velocity can be very different from that predicted by Stokes on the

Interocean exchange of water masses
Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 1995A new method for calculating water mass transport between different ocean basins from the velocity fields obtained by numerical models is presented. The method is applied to the velocity field of the Southern Ocean simulated by a primitive equation model (fine resolution Antarctic model).

Genesis and Evolution of Water Masses
1968The main water masses of the oceans are described as they exist at the present time. It is postulated that at the height of the Wisconsin glacial period the mean salinity of the oceans was 35.7‰, one part per thousand more saline than it is now. The evolution and eventual dissipation of the Wisconsin bottom water mass is discussed together with the ...
