Journal ArticleDOI

Carbon budget of tidal wetlands, estuaries, and shelf waters of Eastern North America

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors constructed a regional carbon budget for Eastern North America using historical data, empirical models, remote-sensing algorithms, and process-based models, showing that coastal carbon budgets should explicitly include tidal wetlands, estuaries, shelf waters and the linkages between them; ignoring any of them may produce a biased picture of coastal carbon cycling.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the Role of Coastal Troughs in the Circulation of Warm Circumpolar Deep Water on Antarctic Shelves

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the mechanisms responsible for the circulation of warm Circumpolar Deep Water (CDW) within troughs running perpendicular to the continental shelf of Antarctica.
Journal ArticleDOI

On the resonance and influence of the tides in Ungava Bay and Hudson Strait

TL;DR: In this article, an analysis of the frequency dependence of the response to outside forcing, a normal mode analysis, and a study of the damped oscillation of an initial disturbance, suggest that the Ungava Bay/Hudson Strait region has a natural period of about 12.7 hours and so is close to resonance with the tidal forcing.
Journal ArticleDOI

Impact of local winter cooling on the melt of Pine Island Glacier, Antarctica

TL;DR: In this paper, a numerical model is used to simulate the circulation of ocean heat and the melt of the ice shelves over the period 2006-2013, and the authors examine the hypothesis that processes taking place on the continental shelf contribute significantly to the interannual variability of the ocean heat content and ice shelf melt rates.

On the resonance and influence of the tides in Ungava Bay

TL;DR: In this paper, an analysis of the frequency dependence of the response to outside forcing, a normal mode analysis, and a study of the damped oscillation of an initial disturbance, suggest that the Ungava Bay/Hudson Strait region has anatural period of about 12.7 hours and so is close to resonance with the tidal forcing.
