Observation of Shelfwater Overrunning the Southern Slope Sea
… 1993) of high resolution (1.47 km<sup>2</sup>) sea surface temperature satellite images of the southern Mid-Atlantic Bight (MAB), showed that unusually extensive overhang of shelf water occurs episodically, and coherently over along shelf distances of several hundred kilometers. These episodes …

Distribution, growth, and transport of larval fishes and implications for population dynamics
… evidence support the classification of the Slope Sea as a major spawning ground for Atlantic bluefin tuna with conditions suitable for larval growth. The abundance of bluefin tuna larvae observed in the Slope Sea aligns with typical observations on the other two spawning grounds. Age and …

Radium isotopes as tracers of coastal circulation pathways in the Mid-Atlantic Bight
Pathways of exchange between the shelf and slope in the Mid-Atlantic Bight were investigated using a combination of radiochemical tracer and hydrographic measurements. The motivation was to provide evidence of transport routes for shelfwater that could be important to the balance of shelf-slope …

Radium isotopes as tracers of coastal circulation pathways in the Mid-Atlantic Blight
Pathways of exchange between the shelf and slope in the Mid-Atlantic Bight were investigated using a combination of radiochemical tracer and hydrographic measurements. The motivation was to provide evidence of transport routes for shelfwater that could be important to the balance of shelf-slope …

Diagnosing the variability in temperature and velocity in the Middle Atlantic Bight
… coordinate frameworks. The jet exhibits strong seasonal variability, with maximum velocities observed in spring and minimum velocities in summer. Evidence is found that Warm Core Rings, originating from the Gulf Stream and passing through the Slope Sea adjacent to the New Jersey shelf, tend to …

Broadband acoustic characterization of the deep scattering layer
… echosounder (36–44 kHz) was deployed in the slope sea off the New England continental shelf. The system continuously monitored individual organisms in the DSL between ~545 and 575 m depth. Tracking ~820,000 individual organisms, this study reveals a remarkably consistent target strength (TS) …
