Calanus finmarchicus (Gunnerus) stratify narrowly near 500 m depth during their fifth copepodite resting phase in North Atlantic Slope Water off southern New England, USA. They probably achieve this by migration to a specific, daytime isolume. Photoperiod information provided by light intensity at depth could serve as a cure for...
Until now, most hypertext systems have been implemented on large scale computers. With improvements in microprocessors and development of graphical user interfaces, personal computers can run systems that previously needed the power of a mainframe. The low costs and widespread use of PCs will enable many people to use hypertext...
The axial component of the oceanic tidal angular momentum (OTAM) has been demonstrated to be responsible for most of the diurnal and semidiurnal variations in Earth's rotational rate. In this paper we study the equatorial components of OTAM and their corresponding effects on the orientation of Earth's rotational axis, or...
Over 20 global ocean tide models have been developed since 1994, primarily as a
consequence of analysis of the precise altimetric measurements from TOPEX/POSEIDON and as a result of parallel developments numerical tidal modeling and data assimilation. This paper
provides an accuracy assessment of 10 such tide models and discusses...
We have compared in situ measurements
near the leading-edges of wave-clouds observed during
the SUCCESS experiment with numerical simulations.
Observations of high supersaturations with respect to ice (> 50%) near the leading edge of a very cold wave cloud (T < -60°C) are approximately consistent
with recent theoretical and laboratory...
Annual ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum Lam. or Lolium perenne L. ssp. multiflorum (Lam.) Husnot, also called Italian rye grass) is a cool season annual bunchgrass native to southern Europe. It is closely related to perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.). Both are widely distributed throughout the world, including North and South America,...
