In addition, the entireNew England Seamount Chain is capped with a thin layer of sediment on top of basaltic rock, which can contributeto further instability. At the utmost, severe slope failure could produce a cataclysmic tsunami event on the proneshores of Bermuda or the coastline of New ...

On the Interaction between the Gulf Stream and the New England Seamount Chain In the course of numerical simulations with a primitive equation regional model of the Gulf Stream, bottom topography and the New England Seamount Chain (N... T Ezer - 《Journal of Physical Oceanography》 被引量: ...
The potential role of the New England seamount chain (NESC) on the Gulf Stream pathway and variability has been long recognized, and the series of numerical experiments presented in this paper further emphasize the importance of properly resolving the NESC when modeling the Gulf Stream. The NESC ...
Origin and structure of the New England Seamount Chain This discontinuity resulted from either a simple transform fault which opened progressively along its length as it was formed, or the entire fault line opened at one time due to a later change in spreading direction. The opening of ... E...
This study investigates the impact of three-dimensional (3-D) bathymetry and sound speed variability on sound propagation, utilizing 3-D ray tracing compared to simple two-dimensional ray tracing (Nx2-D) within the New England seamount chain, focusing on the Atlantis II seamount area. The ...
Intercomparisons are made among three sets of results for two regions of the Gulf Stream, upstream and downstream of the New England Seamount Chain (NESC): observational records from 12 inverted echo sounders with pressure gauges (IES/PGs), concurrent Geosat altimeter crossover point differences, ...
Current meters were placed approximately 2 meters off the bottom at depths from 2900 to 5000 meters on the continental rise near the New England seamount chain. Current velocities greater than 15 cm/sec were recorded in a west-southwest direction, parallel to the regional contours. The greatest ...
Sampling along the New England Seamount Chain has produced a large number of new octocoral species, especially of the bamboo corals in the subfamily Keratoisidinae. The new genus described here is unusual in that it branches from the internodes yet has sclerites at the base of the polyp body...
and Development Activity's Regional Energetics Experiment, 12 inverted echo sounders (IESs) were deployed from June 1985 to July 1986 in two arrays across the historical mean path of the Gulf Stream near 67°W and 58°W, slightly upstream and downstream of the New England Seamount chain. Gulf...
