Physical controls on copepod aggregations in the Gulf of Maine 

Woods, Nicholas W (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
This thesis explores the role that the circulation in the Gulf of Maine (GOM) plays in determining the distribution of dense aggregations of copepods. These aggregations are an important part of the marine ecosystem, ...

Energy pathways and structures of oceanic eddies from the ECCO2 State Estimate and Simplified Models 

Chen, Ru, Ph. D. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
Studying oceanic eddies is important for understanding and predicting ocean circulation and climate variability. The central focus of this dissertation is the energy exchange between eddies and mean ow and banded structures ...

Moored observations of shelfbreak processes at the inflow to and outflow from the Arctic Ocean 

Von Appen, Wilken-Jon (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
Two high-resolution mooring arrays extending from the outer shelf to the mid continental slope are used to elucidate shelf-basin exchange at the inflow to and the outflow from the Arctic Ocean. Pacific Water entering the ...

The production of temperature and salinity variance and covariance : implications for mixing 

Schanze, Julian J. (Julian Johannes) (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
Large-scale thermal forcing and freshwater fluxes play an essential role in setting temperature and salinity in the ocean. A number of recent estimates of the global oceanic freshwater balance as well as the global oceanic ...

A multi-dimensional spectral description of ocean variability with applications 

Wortham, Cimarron James Lemuel, IV (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
Efforts to monitor the ocean for signs of climate change are hampered by ever-present noise, in the form of stochastic ocean variability, and detailed knowledge of the character of this noise is necessary for estimating ...

Evolution of Anthropogenic Pb and Pb isotopes in the deep North Atlantic Ocean and the Indian Ocean 

Lee, Jong-Mi, Ph. D. Massachusetts Institute of Technology (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
Pb and Pb isotopes in the ocean have varied on decadal to centennial time scales due to anthropogenic Pb inputs. Thus, tracing the temporal variation of Pb and Pb isotopes in the ocean provides information on the major ...

Physical influences on phytoplankton ecology : models and observations 

Clayton, Sophie A (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
The physical environment in the oceans dictates not only how phytoplankton cells are dispersed and their populations intermingled, but also mediates the supply of nutrients to the surface mixed layer. In this thesis I ...

Boundary layer dynamics and deep ocean mixing in Mid-Atlantic Ridge canyons 

Dell, Rebecca Walsh (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
Physical oceanographers have known for several decades the total amount of abyssal mixing and upwelling required to balance the deep-water formation, but are still working to understand the mechanisms and locations-how and ...

Distribution of thiols in the northwest Atlantic Ocean 

Kading, Tristan James (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
Thiol substances can form stable complexes with metals (especially copper and mercury) in the surface ocean that can impact cycling and bioavailability of those elements. In this study, I present seven concentration profiles ...

The CAFE experiment : a joint seismic and MT investigation of the Cascadia subduction system 

McGary, R. Shane (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
In this thesis we present results from inversion of data using dense arrays of collocated seismic and magnetotelluric stations located in the Cascadia subduction zone region of central Washington. In the migrated seismic ...
