A Numerical Study of the Magellan Plume
(American Geophysical Union, 2012-05)
In this modeling study we investigate the dynamical mechanisms controlling the spreading of the Magellan Plume, which is a low-salinity tongue that extends along the Patagonian Shelf. Our results indicate that the overall ...
REMOTE SENSING OF SEA SURFACE SALINITY: A CASE STUDY IN THE BURDEKIN RIVER, NORTH-EASTERN AUSTRALIA
(Universidad de Concepción.Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Oceanográficas., 2004)
ANALYSIS OF SPACE-TIME VARIABILITY OF THE PLATA RIVER PLUME
(Universidad de Concepción.Facultad de Ciencias Naturales y Oceanográficas., 2004)
Effects of low-salinity and high-turbidity waters one mpirical ocean colour algorithms: an example for Southwestern Atlantic waters
(New York, 2013-12-11)
The spectral reflectance of the sea surface recorded using ocean colour satellite sensors has been used to estimate chlorophyll-a concentrations for decades. However, in bio-optically complex coastal waters, these estimates ...
The Salinity Signature of the Cross-Shelf Exchanges in the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean: Numerical Simulations
(American Geophysical Union, 2014-10)
A high-resolution model is used to characterize the dominant patterns of sea surface salinity (SSS) variability generated by the freshwater discharges of the Rio de la Plata (RdlP) and the Patos/Mirim Lagoon in the ...
The salinity signature of the cross-shelf exchanges in the Southwestern Atlantic Ocean: Satellite observations
(Wiley, 2014-10)
Satellite-derived sea surface salinity (SSS) data from Aquarius and SMOS are used to study the shelf-open ocean exchanges in the western South Atlantic near 35°S. Away from the tropics, these exchanges cause the largest ...
The effects of river discharge and seasonal winds on the shelf off southeastern South America
(PERGAMON-ELSEVIER SCIENCE LTD, 2008)
The Rio de la Plata waters form a low salinity tongue that affects the circulation, stratification and the distributions of nutrients and biological species over a wide extent of the adjacent continental shelf. The plume ...
Fish larvae distribution off Mejillones Peninsula (northern Chile) during a coastal upwelling event in Spring 1999: Interactions with the cold upwelling plume
(2002)
We examined the interaction between vertical and horizontal distribution of fish larvae off Mejillones Peninsula (23°S), northern Chile, under conditions of active coastal upwelling. An oceanographic survey covered spatial ...
Applying dc resistivity imaging to investigating the relationship between water quality and transpiration beneath circular islands in the okavango delta, botswana: a case study of thata island
(UNIVERSIDAD NACIONAL DE COLOMBIA, 2013)
An electrical resistivity survey was carried out on Thata Island, one of the numerous circular islands in the Okavango Delta, to investigate the mechanism governing the interactions between surface water, vegetation and ...
Numerical study of circulation on the inner Amazon Shelf
(Springer Heidelberg, 2008-11-01)
We studied the circulation on the coastal domain of the Amazon Shelf by applying the hydrodynamic module of the estuarine and coastal ocean model and sediment transport. The first barotropic experiment aimed to explain the ...
