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...

Development, performance evaluation and application of a physical model of the Kenyan-Tanzanian coastal region

Creator:

Mayorga Adame, Claudia Gabriela

Abstract:

A Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) application for the coastal region of Kenya and Tanzania (0-10° S, 38.7-46.98° E) was developed with the aim of better resolving the circulation patterns in the coastal region that is poorly represented in global models. The model has a horizontal resolution of 4 km,...
