  • The Ocean Circulation and Carbon Cycle during the Last Glacial Maximum

    Creator:
    Muglia, Juan
    Abstract:
    During the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM, ∼ 21 ky before present) the atmospheric CO2 concentration was about 100 ppm lower than its pre-industrial (PI)value. The missing carbon from the atmosphere must have been stored in thedeep ocean during this period, but the mechanisms driving such re-distribution ofthe carbon cycle are...

    LGM is strongly coun- tered by a decrease in sedimentary flux due to 125 m lower sea level, which

  • Turbulence in sheared, salt-fingering favorable environment

    Creator:
    Kimura, Satoshi
    Abstract:
    Instability and turbulence in sheared, salt-fingering favorable stratification are studied using three-dimensional direct numerical simulations (DNS). Salt-fingering favorable stratification is gravitationally stable, because the unstable vertical gradient of salinity is stabilized by temperature (warm, salty over cool, fresh water-masses). Salt-fingering instability can occur at the interface of these different water-masses....
