Prokaryotes associated with marine crust

Creator:: Mason, Olivia Underwood
Abstract:: Oceanic crust covers nearly 70% of the Earth's surface, of which, the upper, sediment layer is estimated to harbor substantial microbial biomass. Marine crust; however, extends several kilometers beyond this surficial layer, and includes the basalt and gabbro layers. In particular, the basalt layer has high permeabilities which allows for...

Helium isotope variations in peridotite, gabbro and basalt from the Kane Oceanic Core Complex

Creator:: Konrad, Kevin
Abstract:: The Kane Oceanic Core Complex (OCC) is a valuable window into crustal architecture and chemical composition of the lithosphere beneath a slow-spreading ocean ridge. A suite of > 30 samples (comprised of whole rocks, mineral separates and basalt glasses) has been analyzed for ³He/⁴He isotope ratios and He concentrations. Gas...

Holocene sediments of the South Atlantic Ocean : the calcite compensation depth and concentrations of calcite, opal and quartz

Creator:: Ellis, David Burl
Abstract:: The concentrations of calcite, opal and quartz have been measured in 113 South Atlantic core tops. The remainder of the total sample has been calculated as clay. A method for the quantitative determination of opal has been developed. Calcite is the dominant factor in South Atlantic sediments; its pattern can...

Moored temperature observations in JASIN

Creator:: deWitt, L. M., Bottero, J., Burt, W. V., Paulson, C. A., and Simpkins, J.
Abstract:: Moored temperature observations were obtained at an array of buoys in the North Atlantic (59° 00.2'-59°10.7'N, 12°27.4'-12°33.6'W) during the Joint Air-Sea Interaction Experiment (JASIN) of 1978. Observations were taken at 10-minute intervals by use of thermistors at 21 depths ranging from 4.5 m to 81.5 m. Plots of temperature as...

A compilation of observations from moored current meters and associated oceanographic observations : POLYMODE Array III Cluster C, May 1977 - May 1978

Creator:: Koblinsky, C. J., Keffer, T., and Niiler, Pearn P.
Abstract:: A summary of the observations taken from moored stations and hydrographic surveys in POLYMODE Array III Cluster C is presented. Currents and water temperatures were measured at various depths, including: 150, 225, 300, 500, 750, 1500, 2500, and 4000 meters. Hydrographic surveys were made during the deployment and recovery cruises....

The South Atlantic Ocean response to local and remote forcings

Creator:: Fetter Filho, Antonio F. H.
Abstract:: The local and remote sources of variability of the South Atlantic Ocean are investigated using a set of numerical experiments and satellite data. A global, eddy-permitting, numerical simulation is analyzed to investigate the dynamical links between the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC) and the Malvinas Current (MC). The model results indicate...

Decomposition of absorption coefficients and decorrelation lengthscales of hydrographic and inherent optical properties in the Middle Atlantic Bight

Creator:: Simeon, Jennifer J.
Abstract:: This investigation is an exploration of the use of inherent optical properties towards further elucidation of coastal circulation processes occurring on the continental shelf and slope in the Middle Atlantic Bight, south of Cape Cod Massachusetts, during 14-Aug to 1-Sep 1996 and 25-Apr to 15-May 1997. Assessing the possibility of...

Abyssal boundary current studies, current measurements north of the Falkland Plateau: January 1986-April 1987

Creator:: Pillsbury, R. Dale, Barstow, D., Bottero, J. M., Pittock, Glenna, Root, D. C., Simpkins, J., III, Still, Robert E., and Whitworth, T., III
Abstract:: The data described in this report were collected in support of the program, Abyssal Boundary Current Studies, funded by the National Science Foundation. This program was designed to improve our understanding of the structure and variability of the deep western boundary currents and to estimate their transport of heat and...
