Wind stress and wind stress curl over the California current

open access: yes, 1976
Abstract : Historical surface marine observations are summarized by 1-degree square area and long term month to describe the seasonal distribution of wind stress over the California Current. Off the coasts of southern California and Baja California, an alongshore equatorward component is present throughout the year.

Wind power compensation is not for the birds : an opinion from an environmental economist [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
This article advocates for better implementation of the Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) framework as applied to wind power development, with a particular focus on improving compensatory restoration scaling.

Key Role of Subdaily Wind Variability for Tropical Surface Wind Stress

open access: yesJournal of Physical Oceanography, 2023
Abstract High-frequency observations of surface winds over the open ocean are available only at limited locations. However, these observations are essential for assessing atmospheric influences on the ocean, validating reanalysis products, and building parameterization schemes.

Modes of ocean variability in the tropical Pacific as derived from Geosat altimetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
Satellite-derived (Geosat altimetry) sea surface height anomalies for the period November 1986 to September 1989 were investigated in order to extract the dominant modes of climate variability in the tropical Pacific.

Hydrodynamic modelling and characterisation of a shallow fluvial lake: a study on the Superior Lake of Mantua

open access: yesJournal of Limnology, 2016
This paper presents a numerical modelling framework developed to simulate circulations and to generally characterise the hydrodynamics of the Superior Lake of Mantua, a shallow fluvial lake in Northern Italy. Such eutrophied basin is characterised by low

Atmospheric Dynamic Response to Coupling Currents to Wind Stress over the Gulf Stream

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2023
Atmospheric near-surface stress and boundary layer wind responses to surface currents are examined with high resolution coupled atmosphere–ocean models over the Gulf Stream during winter. Because the ocean and atmosphere are linked through surface stress,

Wind stress and its dependence on wind speed and sea state [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
The aim of the project is to detect and quantify the effect of sea state on the wind stress. An overview of the basic theory of wind stress in the surface layer is provided, along with a more detailed description of the inertial dissipation method which ...

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Reciprocal control of viral infection and phosphoinositide dynamics

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Phosphoinositides, although scarce, regulate key cellular processes, including membrane dynamics and signaling. Viruses exploit these lipids to support their entry, replication, assembly, and egress. The central role of phosphoinositides in infection highlights phosphoinositide metabolism as a promising antiviral target.

Sensitivity of Southern Ocean circulation to wind stress changes: Role of relative wind stress [PDF]

open access: yesOcean Modelling, 2015
The influence of different wind stress bulk formulae on the response of the Southern Ocean circulation to wind stress changes is investigated using an idealised channel model. Surface/mixed layer properties are found to be sensitive to the use of the relative wind stress formulation, where the wind stress depends on the difference between the ocean and
