A three-dimensional mapping of the ocean based on environmental data

Creator:: Wright, Dawn J.
Abstract:: The existence, sources, distribution, circulation, and physicochemical nature of macroscale oceanic water bodies have long been a focus of oceanographic inquiry. Building on that work, this paper describes an objectively derived and globally comprehensive set of 37 distinct volumetric region units, called ecological marine units (EMUs). They are constructed on...

Environmental and Ecological Effects of Ocean Renewable Energy Development: A Current Synthesis

Creator:: Boehlert, George W. and Gill, Andrew B.
Abstract:: Marine renewable energy promises to assist in the effort to reduce carbon emissions worldwide. As with any large-scale development in the marine environment, however, it comes with uncertainty about potential environmental impacts, most of which have not been adequately evaluated—in part because many of the devices have yet to be...

Hydroacoustic monitoring of oceanic spreading centers: Past, present, and future

Creator:: Dziak, Robert P., Bohnenstiehl, Delwayne R., and Smith, Deborah K.
Abstract:: Mid-ocean ridge volcanism and extensional faulting are the fundamental processes that lead to the creation and rifting of oceanic crust, yet these events go largely undetected in the deep ocean. Currently, the only means available to observe seafloor-spreading events in real time is via the remote detection of the seismicity...

Volcanic Eruptions in the Deep Sea

Creator:: Rubin, Kenneth H., Soule, S. Adam, Chadwick, William W., Jr., Fornari, Daniel J., Clague, David A., Embley, Robert W., Baker, Edward T., Perfit, Michael R., Caress, David W., and Dziak, Robert P.
Abstract:: Volcanic eruptions are important events in Earth’s cycle of magma generation and crustal construction. Over durations of hours to years, eruptions produce new deposits of lava and/or fragmentary ejecta, transfer heat and magmatic volatiles from Earth’s interior to the overlying air or seawater, and significantly modify the landscape and perturb...

Swells, soundings, and sustainability, but... here be monsters

Creator:: Wright, Dawn J.
Abstract:: The Roger Revelle Commemorative Lecture Series was created by the Ocean Studies Board of the National Academies in honor of Roger Revelle to highlight the important links between ocean sciences and public policy. Dawn J. Wright, the eighteenth annual lecturer, spoke on April 28, 2017, at the Smithsonian National Museum...

Hydrothermal Discharge During Submarine Eruptions

Creator:: Baker, Edward T., Chadwick, Wi l l iam W. Jr., Cowen, James P., Dziak, Robert P., Rubin, Kenneth H., and Fornari, Daniel J.
Abstract:: Submarine volcanic eruptions and intrusions construct new oceanic crust and build long chains of volcanic islands and vast submarine plateaus. Magmatic events are a primary agent for the transfer of heat, chemicals, and even microbes from the crust to the ocean, but the processes that control these transfers are poorly...

Jellyfish, Forage Fish, and the World’s Major Fisheries

Creator:: Robinson, Kelly L., Ruzicka, James J., Decker, Mary Beth, Brodeur, Richard D., Hernandez, Frank J., Quiñones, Javier, Acha, E. Marcelo, Uye, Shin-ichi, Mianzan, Hermes, and Graham, William M.
Abstract:: A majority of the world’s largest net-based fisheries target planktivorous forage fish that serve as a critical trophic link between the plankton and upper-level consumers such as large predatory fishes, seabirds, and marine mammals. Because the plankton production that drives forage fish also drives jellyfish production, these taxa often overlap...

Observing biogeochemical cycles at global scales with profiling floats and gliders: Prospects for a global array

Creator:: Johnson, Kenneth S., Berelson, William M., Boss, Emmanuel S., Chase, Zanna, Claustre, Herve, Emerson, Steven R., Gruber, Nicolas, Kortzinger, Arne, Perry, Mary Jane, and Riser, Stephen C.
Abstract:: Chemical and biological sensor technologies have advanced rapidly in the past five years. Sensors that require low power and operate for multiple years are now available for oxygen, nitrate, and a variety of bio-optional properties that serve as proxies for important components of the carbon cycle (e.g., particulate organic carbon)....

The Cascadia Initiative: A Sea Change In Seismological Studies of Subduction Zones

Creator:: Toomey, Douglas R., Allen, Richard M., Barclay, Andrew H., Dziak, Robert P., Tréhu, Anne M., Bell, Samuel W., Bromirski, Peter D., Carlson, Richard L., Chen, Xiaowei, Collins, John A., Evers, Brent, Forsyth, Donald W., Gerstoft, Peter, Hooft, Emilie E. E., Livelybrooks, Dean, Lodewyk, Jessica A., Luther, Douglass S., McGuire, Jeffrey J., Schwartz, Susan Y., Tolstoy, Maya, Weirathmueller, Michelle, and Wilcock, William S. D.
Abstract:: Increasing public awareness that the Cascadia subduction zone in the Pacific Northwest is capable of great earthquakes (magnitude 9 and greater) motivates the Cascadia Initiative, an ambitious onshore/offshore seismic and geodetic experiment that takes advantage of an amphibious array to study questions ranging from megathrust earthquakes, to volcanic arc structure,...

Eruption of South Sarigan Seamount, Northern Mariana Islands: Insights into Hazards from Submarine Volcanic Eruptions

Creator:: Embley, Robert W., Tamura, Yoshihiko, Merle, Susan G., Sato, Tomoki, Ishizuka, Osamu, Chadwick, William W. Jr., Wiens, Douglas A., Shore, Patrick, and Stern, Robert J.
Abstract:: The eruption of South Sarigan Seamount in the southern Mariana arc in May 2010 is a reminder of how little we know about the hazards associated with submarine explosive eruptions or how to predict these types of eruptions. Monitored by local seismometers and distant hydrophones, the eruption from ~ 200...
