Recent studies hypothesize that some submarine slides fail via pressure-driven slow-slip deformation. To test this hypothesis, this study derives pore pressures in failed and adjacent unfailed deep marine sediments by integrating rock physics models, physical property measurements on recovered sediment core, and wireline logs. Two drill sites (U1394 and U1399)...
The Gulf Stream is a major conduit of warm surface water from the tropics to the subpolar North Atlantic. Here we observe and simulate a submesoscale (<20 km) mechanism by which the Gulf Stream exchanges water with subpolar water to the north. Along isopycnals, the front has a sharp compensated...
Coral reefs are in decline worldwide, and land-derived sources of pollution, including sewage, are a major force driving that deterioration. This review presents evidence that sewage discharge occurs in waters surrounding at least 104 of 112 reef geographies. Studies often refer to sewage as a single stressor. However, we show...
The particle size distribution (PSD) is a critical aspect of the oceanic ecosystem. Local variability in the PSD can be indicative of shifts in microbial community structure and reveal patterns in cell growth and loss. The PSD also plays a central role in particle export by influencing settling speed. Satellite-based...
The leading edge of the ENE-trending Himalayan thrust front in Pakistan exhibits along-strike changes in deformational style, ranging from fault-bend to fault-propagation folds. Although the structural geometry is very gently deformed throughout the Salt Range, it becomes progressively more complex to the east as the leading edge of the emergent...
Current software development practices leave a plethora of activities that are archived in version control systems, issue trackers, mailing lists, or Question and Answer (Q&A) forums. Software managers are increasingly using these online activities to better evaluate job candidates. We introduce our tool, Visual Resume, that displays visual overviews of...
Previous research has associated insecure adult attachment with lower levels of pain self-efficacy within a laboratory setting. However, the external validity of these results remains unclear. This study focused on the applicability of this theory outside of a laboratory setting, specifically within the lens of exercise habits. If insecure adult...
Non-suicidal self-injury (NSSI) is a significant issue among adolescents in the United States affecting 13% to 25% of young adults. In 2012, Arizona saw over 12,000 adolescents in emergency rooms due to self-injury. Approximately 50% to 85% of self-injuring adolescents will attempt suicide at least once during their lifetime. Adolescents...
Satellite‐derived sea surface salinity (SSS) data from Aquarius and SMOS are used to study the shelf‐open ocean exchanges in the western South Atlantic near 35°S. Away from the tropics, these exchanges cause the largest SSS variability throughout the South Atlantic. The data reveal a well‐defined seasonal pattern of SSS during...
