Geophysical surveys in the Gulf of California provided the data to construct contour maps of bathymetry, free-air anomalies and total field magnetic anomalies for the area north of 27° N. Major faults such as the Ball ...

Gravity, magnetic and seismic data indicate that the oceanic crust is 9.7 km thick west of the Continental Borderland. The top of the mantle is about 12 km deep under the Borderland, and deepens to 27 km beneath the P ...

A free-air gravity anomaly map of the area between 10°-17°N and 90°-101°W shows distinctive positive and negative anomalies which parallel the Tehuatepec Ridge. The positive anomaly approximately overlies the topograp ...

Hydrographic data and drogue observations were used to describe the circulation and water masses in the upper 500 meters of the region of the entrance to the Gulf of California in the early spring of 1970. The thermo ...

A new method is introduced for incorporating bathymetric uncertainty into predictions of nearshore and river flows (i.e., unstratified flows primarily forced by pressure and radiation stress gradients). The method involv ...

The distribution of barite (BaSO₄) in marine sediments has long been studied as a proxy for paleoproductivity. While pure barite is known to be a stable mineral in oxic sediments, it is also known that variations in the ...

An ice cover which progrades over a shallow ocean in the form of an ice front may induce a baroclinic flow in the underlying water, provided that the brine excluded from the freezing surface layer is mixed rapidly thr ...
