A model is presented for the deep interior stratification and upwelling in an ocean basin connected to a marginal sea. Three elements make up the model: a marginal sea, a turbulent boundary current and an interior region. The system is subject to rotation. Once the forcing by an air-sea ...
What is the deepest ocean? What is the largest ocean? What is the Amazon Basin? What are the oceans? What layer of the ocean is the largest carbon sink? What is the Great Basin? What ocean gyre is in the Mediterranean Sea? What is the deepest part of the Atlantic Ocean?
(2) in other cases, rifting continues and the continental crust eventually splits into two separating blocks, producing an intervening proto-ocean basin. Further extension widens the ocean basin and promotes the development of passive margins on the trailing edges of diverging continental blocks. The...
The relevant data were collected for the mammal fauna from the semi-arid Amboseli Basin in southern Kenya61. The ratio of animals counted on the landscape (N) to skeletons observed (S) was expressed as a function of body mass in kg (W) as follows: $${\text{log}}_{{{1}0}} \left...
In this study, a data-driven approach employed by utilizing the product called JRC-Global surface water mapping layers V1.4 on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) to map and monitor the effects of climate change on surface water resources. Key climatic variabl
“There is far too much hunting of the prey, regardless of its effect. Everything is for short term gain over here. A lot of people have got their land in the reforms and don’t know how long they ill hold onto it, so they’re trying to make what they can whilst they have it....
There is a land, located deep in the heart of Asia. A land, hidden behind mountains and deserts, far from the ocean, far from big cities, far from the famous and popular destinations. Land with breathtaking landscapes, stretching from Tibet to Siberia, and from below the sea level to ...
A Blue Ocean Event January 5, 2024Politics This is by far the most disturbing and unsettling post that I have written to date. It is a call to arms that far exceeds anything that I can imagine. It will sound hyperbolic to the uninitiated, but it is my duty as someone steeped in ...
Because of the dearth of depth measurements, much less accurate depth measurements, the first attempts to map ocean basins were doomed to be suspect. Matthew Fontaine Maury made the first serious attempt to map an ocean basin in 1854, producing theBathymetrical Map of the North Atlantic Basin ...
The Pacific sea area in the east of Taiwan Island with an extremely narrow continental shelf, a cramped and steep continental slope, and ocean basin is a great topographic relief. Most of the water depth is greater than 4000 m, and the maximum water depth is 7881 m (Wang, 2012). 2.2....
