The concept that ocean fronts are important features in oceanic biology has a long history, as noted by the quotations cited above. The example of a functional understanding of fronts provided by a co...
The Impact of Quaternary Global Changes on Strata Formation: Exploration of the Shelf Edge in the Northwest Mediterranean Sea
Strata Formation Northwest Mediterranean Sea
2015/7/29
Paleoceanographic and marine paleoclimatic investigations commonly use deep, open-ocean sediments or coral reefs to establish a continuous record of past global environmental changes because they both...
Here on the Blue Planet we tend to live life on the edge. Throughout nature, edges are places where great things, the good with the bad, tend to happen. From time immemorial, humans have especially fa...
Edge gradients provide evidence of ecological interactions in planktonic thin layers
Edge gradients provide ecological interactions
2014/4/18
Physical, optical, and acoustical data from Monterey Bay, California, USA, describing the distributions of
phytoplankton, zooplankton, and small fish as well as gradients in the physical habitat were...

Wind–Induced Baroclinic Motions at the Edge of the Continental Shelf
Wind–Induced Baroclinic Motions Continental Shelf
2009/4/2
In a two-layer model of stratified fluid flow, motions in the internal mode are governed by the distribution of an equivalent depth he. For a typical continental shelf, the distribution of he with dis...
Baroclinic Boundary Currents and Long Edge-Waves in Basins with Sloping Shores
Baroclinic Boundary Currents Sloping Shores Long Edge-Waves
2009/3/9
Earlier work on baroclinic “coastal jets” and Kelvin waves in constant-depth basins is extended to basins with sloping shores. Baroclinic coastal jets are again found to be set up by an inflow or outf...
We examine the generation of trapped edge waves on a continental shelf when a long wave from the deep ocean reaches an irregular coast, and alterations in the propagation characteristics of trapped ed...
A Variable-Depth Green’s Function for Shelf Edge Tides
Shelf Edge Tides Variable-Depth Green’s Function
2009/2/13
The Green's function for a semi-infinite ocean with depth a function of distance from the boundary is developed numerically for the M2 frequency and with Coriolis frequency and depth profile appropria...
Exact solutions are found to the linearized three-dimensional equations for free surface-gravity waves trapped against a straight coastline with a topography varying perpendicular to the coastline. Th...
Low-Frequency Circulation at the Edge of the Scotian Shelf
Low-Frequency Circulation Scotian Shelf Nova Scotia
2009/2/7
Records of current, temperature and salinity from a two-year mooring program at the shelf break off Nova Scotia are examined to determine the low-frequency oceanic responses to the driving surface win...
The Generation of Barotropic Edge Waves by Deep-Sea Internal Waves
Barotropic Edge Waves Deep-Sea Internal Waves
2009/1/20
A simple two-layer, step-shelf model is used to demonstrate that barotropic (surface) edge waves of substantial amplitude can, in principle, be generated by deep-sea internal waves incident upon the c...
A Heat Balance for the Bering Sea Ice Edge
marginal ice zone Marginal Ice Zone Experiment Heat Balance
2009/1/16
Detailed oceanographic, meteorological and sea ice observations were obtained from the Bering Sea marginal ice zone (MIZ) during the February–March 1983 Marginal Ice Zone Experiment (MIZEX West). Thes...
A Statistical Description of the Vertical and Horizontal Structure of Eddy Variability on the Edge of the Gulf Stream Recirculation
Statistical Description Vertical Horizontal Structure Eddy Variability Gulf Stream Recirculation
2009/1/15
The vertical structure of eddy variability on the southern edge of the Gulf Stream recirculation is presented as a number of different forms of empirical orthogonal modes. The velocity dot-product mod...
Observations of the Shelf-Edge Current South of Australia, Winter 1982
Shelf-Edge Current South of Australia
2009/1/12
Results are presented from an oceanographic cruise along Australia's south coast in June–July 1982. A narrow shelf-edge current flowed eastwards along the shelf edge for the entire distance. Features ...
