Shear enhanced nutrient supply at the Mesoscale
… investigates whether shear associated with mesoscale features leads to locally enhanced turbulent mixing and a shear-enhanced nutrient supply. Measurements of turbulent diffusivity and nutrient concentrations have been made in a region containing an eddy dipole, a strong mesoscale feature, …

Growth, Structure and Prediction of the Thermal Internal Boundary Layer
… Boundary Layer (TIBL) is a dynamic and turbulent mesoscale feature of the coastal atmosphere that forms over the land during conditions of onshore flow. The TIBL develops as an adjustment of the atmospheric boundary layer to the discontinuities of temperature and roughness that occur at the …

Quantifying the Role of Mesoscale-Driven Processes of Nitrate Supply Within an Iceland Basin Eddy Dipole
This study quantitatively assesses the mesoscale spatial variability in local nitrate transport and the net nitrate flux associated with an open ocean eddy dipole, using novel data from the SUV?6 ultra?violet (UV) nitrate sensor integrated with SeaSoar. The innovative, combined system provides …

The biophysical processes controlling the South-East Madagascar Bloom
… of Madagascar during bloom months. A dipole mesoscale feature is also prevalent close to the Madagascan coast during the bloom, from which a new hypothesis emerges. This new hypothesis states that the region south/south-east of Madagascar, influenced by local mesoscale turbulence, acts as a …

Modeling of Material Jetting Additive Manufacturing with Applications to Paper Machine Fabrics
… to enable new innovation, especially at the mesoscale, like novel paper machine press fabrics. The objective of this research is to improve the understanding of mesoscale feature fabrication via material jetting AM and improve our understanding of how to model the material jetting fabrication …

TROPHIC ECOLOGY OF SAILFISH LARVAE IN THE GULF OF MEXICO: AN ANALYSIS OF DIET, PREY AVAILABILITY, PREY QUALITY, AND INFLUENCES ON LARVAL GROWTH
<p>The Gulf of Mexico is an important early life habitat for billfishes, whose larvae experience high growth rates despite having highly specialized diets, limited foraging abilities, and oligotrophic offshore habitats. Variability in the recent growth of sailfish larvae was compared to …

Subtidal cross-shelf circulation on the Northern California shelf
… when it is strong are interpreted as effects of mesoscale features. To examine the applicability of the wind-forced conceptual model in more detail, a simple analytic model incorporating the assumptions of the conceptual model and observed local wind forcing is compared quantitatively to …
