Modelled Antarctic ice volume46compared with the ANDRILL (AND-1B) ice-extent reconstruction (blue = advance; red = retreat; based on ref. 12), together with modelled sediment facies in the Ross Sea, close to AND-1B (yellow = open ocean; blue =...
Core PS67/197-1 in the Scotia Sea is sensitive to changes in winter sea ice extent22. Light blue arrows show the Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the Cape Horn Current (CHC) and Malvinas Current (MC)64, while dark green-blue arrows denote Weddell Sea Bottom Water (WSBW, thick) and...
Similarly to the wind field, wave properties are highly variable in time in the Baltic Sea and the direct wave impact on the drift can be modelled to some extent as a random disturbance to the trajectories of pollutant parcels (Viikmäe et al., 2013). Spatial distributions of the long-...
Here zoning efforts that would reduce antagonism between forestry and conservation call for a larger spatial extent of spatial planning than just BFM in Poland, or just in Belarus (Jaroszewicz et al. 2019; Blicharska et al. 2020). This approach is relevant along European border areas in ...
There was no true reference site although the Abra estuary has been remediated to some extent. Up to 75% oocyte atre- sia was observed in the Oka and up to 25% in the Abra, although it should be noted that atresia can be a natural occurrence at certain stages of the life cycle, and...
this region. To a lesser extent, Cyanobacteria and micro-eukaryote (Viridiplantae) appeared as principal primary producers. We suggest that the low number of potential autotrophic pathway and nitrogen metabolism genes might be confounded by the paucity of trace metals (especially, iron) and high ...
Extent Various boundaries have been used to define particularly the northern but also the southern limits of the Atlantic Ocean. There are no universally accepted boundary conventions. In the north the situation is further complicated by the fact that the Arctic Ocean frequently is considered to be...
For example, at key position NA.02 (but to a certain extent also at NA.01), while the monthly mean Hs varies very little during the year, that is not the case with wind sea and swell heights: Hss decreases (increases) during summer (winter) months, while Hsw has an opposite yearly ...
A climatology of wind sea and swell waves along the Canary eastern boundary current area, from west Iberia to Mauritania, is presented. The study is based on the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) reanalysis ERA-Interim. The wind
