Modeling studies of mesoscale circulation in the Gulf of California

Creator:: Martínez Alcalá, José Antonio
Abstract:: The mesoscale circulation in the Gulf of California is investigated using a numerical model (Princeton Ocean Model). Forced by satellite-derived winds, the circulation in the gulf shows a complex pattern dominated in the southern gulf by multiple eddies. Near the coast and in most of the north gulf, the circulation...

Currents and water masses at the entrance to the Gulf of California, spring 1970

Creator:: Alvarez Sanchez, Luis Gustavo
Abstract:: Hydrographic data and drogue observations were used to describe the circulation and water masses in the upper 500 meters of the region of the entrance to the Gulf of California in the early spring of 1970. The thermohaline structure of the water and the general circulation in the vicinity of...

Crustal structure and thermal gradients of the northern Gulf of California determined using spectral analysis of magnetic anomalies

Creator:: Zamora, Osvaldo Sanchez
Abstract:: Geophysical surveys in the Gulf of California provided the data to construct contour maps of bathymetry, free-air anomalies and total field magnetic anomalies for the area north of 27° N. Major faults such as the Ballenas- Salsipuedes, Tiburón, Guaymas, and the South Cerro Prieto are clearly observable on these maps....

Cruise report BAJA VAMONOS 79 : H-1 Mariano Matamoros (commanding officer Pompeyo Leon Herrera) : San Diego, Manzanillo, Sea of Cortez, San Diego, September 7, 1979 through September 30, 1979

Creator:: Schrader, Hans
Abstract:: The objectives were to bathymetrically survey areas in the Central Gulf of California where laminated sediments were discovered previously, core with lightweight marine geologic gravity corer, and recover well preserved surface sediment up to 2-3 meters in length. These laminated sediments will essentially be used to establish a model of...

Crustal structure and faulting of the Gulf of California from geophysical modeling and deconvolution of magnetic profiles

Creator:: Doguin, Pierre
Abstract:: Using gravity, magnetic, bathymetric and seismic refraction data, I have constructed a geophysical cross-section of the central part of the northern Gulf of California. The section exhibits a crustal thickness of 18 km and features an anomalous block of high density lower basement (3.15 g/cm³) which probably resulted from rifting...

Hydrogen isotopic composition of C₃₇ alkenones and the ecology and physiology of coccolithophores

Creator:: Wolhowe, Matthew D.
Abstract:: A three-part study was conducted into the impact of physiological and ecological variables on the net isotopic fractionation of hydrogen, α[subscript K₃₇], expressed in C₃₇ alkenones. First, alkenone-producer production, abundance, and export were characterized in the summertime Gulf of California and Eastern Tropical North Pacific using compound-specific, labeled in situ...

Late Neogene tectonics of the mouth of the Gulf of California

Creator:: Ness, Gordon Everett
Abstract:: Anomaly timescales for the last 90 million years, derived from marine magnetic profiles and published prior to mid-1979, are summarized, illustrated for comparison, and critically reviewed. A revised timescale is constructed using calibration points which fix the ages of anomalies 2.3', 5.5, 24, and 29. An equation is presented for...
