What is a surface current in oceanography? What cities are at sea level? What number always represents sea level? How much salinity is in the sunlight zone? How deep is the ocean thermocline? What is underwater topography? Which atmospheric level is farthest from the lithosphere?
Oar (n) An implement for impelling a boat, being a slender piece of timber, usually ash or spruce, with a grip or handle at one end and a broad blade at the other. The part which rests in the rowlock is called the loom. Oar (n) An oarsman; a rower; as, he is a good oar...
For instance, whether the seabed is viewed in the context of submarine geology, the water column, the earth-ocean–atmosphere system, or a coastal economic system influences whether mining policy will be developed using a framework of localised mining codes, the integrated management of a Marine ...
Why is uniformitarianism important? Why are silicate minerals important? Why is stratigraphy important? Why is marine geophysical important to oceanography? What is the importance of groundwater? Why are igneous rocks useful? Why is nuclear chemistry important?
El Niño. What is El Niño? A shift in ocean current direction and water temperature El Niño: the ocean part: Warm phase of ENSO: El Niño - Southern Oscillation. Shanese Breitkreitz. Meaning – La Nina The little girl El Viejo – Old Man A cold event A co...
in the water column and the occurrence of food starvation at the seafloor (and hence the coeval low biomass of benthic organisms31,32,33). Conversely, the cooling trend following peak EECO warmth was accompanied by the opening up of new niches for deeper dwelling zooplankton and a consequent ...
A number of substances have been released into the environment on a global scale from humankind's activities. Observation of the passage of these tracers into and through the oceans is providing us with a remarkable opportunity to examine the rates, pathways, and mechanics by which material fluxes...
The measurement of bubble gas content is particularly useful for identifying local ebullitive hotspots and integrating spatial heterogeneity of CH 4 fluxes. Our results further revealed the crucial effect of water column depth, production rates, and hypolimnetic dissolved CH 4 concentrations on sediment...
Senate on climate legislation. How could it happen that more than a dozen of the most prestigious scientific associations signed and submitted this letter on �climate change� without having ensured that the used terminology is sufficiently defined. Read the rest of the entry ...
The observed patterns in the seasonal occurrence of incoming species like Temora stylifera are related to those observed in the water column stratification, which is reinforced by the warming trend.doi:10.1016/j.pocean.2007.04.016Luis Valdés...
