Journal ArticleDOI
On the continuity of mean flow between the Scotian Shelf and the Middle Atlantic Bight
TL;DR: O tracer data combined with results from two linear barotropic coastal models are used to argue that the observed equatorward mean alongshelf flow in the Middle Atlantic Bight is a downstream extension of the mean along shelf flow over the Scotian Shelf.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isotope data from Ice Station Weddell: Implications for deep water formation in the Weddell Sea
TL;DR: In this article, the formation rate of Weddell Sea Bottom Water (WSBW) with a potential temperature of −0.7°C was investigated using the estimated flow of ISW over the sill north of the Filchner Depression of 1 Sv.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oscillating glacial northern and southern deep water formation from combined neodymium and carbon isotopes
Alexander M Piotrowski,Steven L. Goldstein,R. Hemming Sidney,Richard G. Fairbanks,David R. Zylberberg +4 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the balance of northern and southern-sourced waters in the South Atlantic through the last glacial period using neodymium isotope ratios of authigenic ferromanganese oxides in thirteen deep sea cores from throughout the south Atlantic.
Journal ArticleDOI
Light and temperature effects on Sr/Ca and Mg/Ca ratios in the scleractinian coral Acropora sp.
Stéphanie Reynaud,Christine Ferrier-Pagès,Anders Meibom,Smail Mostefaoui,Richard A. Mortlock,Richard G. Fairbanks,Denis Allemand +6 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of light and temperature on the skeleton of coral Acropora sp. was investigated for the purpose of evaluating temperature proxies for paleoceanographic applications, and the authors concluded that there is a strong biological control on the incorporation of Mg.
