Creator:

Mangold, N., Thompson, L. M., Forni, O., Williams, A. J., Fabre, C., Le Deit, L., Wiens, R. C., Williams, R., Anderson, R. B., Blaney, D. L., Calef, F., Cousin, A., Clegg, S. M., Dromart, G., Dietrich, W. E., Edgett, K. S., Fisk, M. R., Gasnault, O., Gellert, R., Grotzinger, J. P., Kah, L., Le Mouélic, L., McLennan, S. M., Maurice, S., Meslin, P-Y., Newsom, H. E., Palucis, M. C., Rapin, W., Sautter, V., Siebach, K. L., Stack, K., Sumner, D., and Yingst, A.

Abstract:

The Curiosity rover has analyzed various detrital sedimentary rocks at Gale Crater, among which fluvial and lacustrine rocks are predominant. Conglomerates correspond both to the coarsest sediments analyzed and the least modified by chemical alteration, enabling us to link their chemistry to that of source rocks on the Gale Crater...

Relationship between oceanic mesozooplankton and energy of eddy fields

Creator:

Piontkovski, S. A., Williams, R., Peterson, William T., and Kosnirev, V. K.

Abstract:

The impact of mesoscale eddies on the spatial distribution of zooplankton biomass was analysed using data from the Arabian Sea and the Black Sea. The highest values of spatial variance of zooplankton biomass in the upper 100 to 150 m were found in regions with maximum available potential energy of...
