Book Description
"A spectral analysis shows that sea-ice cover in Baffin Bay and the Labrador Sea responds to the SO and SAT fluctuations at about 1.7 year, 3-5 year and about 8-10 year periods. In addition, a sea-ice signature associated with the so-called "climate jump" during the early 1960s was found. The ice thickness and ice-melt date data are also used to verify the above findings." --

Computer Modelling of Seas and Coastal Regions II
Author: C. A. Brebbia
Publisher: Computational Mechanics
ISBN:
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 466
Book Description
"The importance of accurately modelling seas and coastal regions is emphasized by the need for a better understanding of their normal behaviour and response to extreme conditions. Problems such as pollution of these areas have become a major international concern and the related environmental consequences need further study in order that proper remedial actions can be designed. Computer models are an efficient tool to determine the response of water systems, in combination with remote sensing and experimental sampling. Furthermore, once a disaster occurs, models can be used to determine its extent and impact, and aid the optimization of the use of available resources." "This book contains the papers presented at the Second International Conference on Computer Modelling of Seas and Coastal Regions, held in Cancun, Mexico, in September 1995. The conference attracted contributions from many different countries, covering a multitude of topics and techniques in the areas of shallow water models, pollutant transport and dispersion, wave propagation, coastal erosion, littoral drift, tidal simulation, storm surges, estuaries, and coastal lakes and lagoons."--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.

Last Glacial-deglacial Variability in Sea Surface Characteristics and Ice Sheet Activities in the Labrador Sea/Baffin Bay
Author: Defang You
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
In the context of global warming, the accelerated melting of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) and Arctic sea ice in recent years has led to increased meltwater discharge and subsequent sea-level rise. The meltwater discharge may affect sea surface characteristics in the polar and subpolar regions and potentially yield significant influence on ocean circulation patterns. Additionally, the far-reaching implications of ocean forcings on ice sheet instability and sea ice retreat have also raised considerable attention. To enhance our understanding of the influences of meltwater discharge on abrupt climatic changes and interactions among ice sheet instability, sea ice variability, and sea surface characteristics, it is essential to investigate sedimentary records on different timescales beyond modern observation. To achieve these objectives, we conducted detailed paleoenvironmental reconstructions from three sediment cores: one obtained from the eastern Labrador Sea (Core MSM12/2-05-01) and two others from southern Baffin Bay (Core SL170 and SL174). This study provides new insights into variations in sea surface characteristics and their interactions with ice sheet activities in the Labrador Sea and Baffin Bay during the last glacial-deglacial-Holocene period. Meanwhile, our findings provide more information about the impact of freshwater forcing/ice sheet activities on abrupt climate changes. Furthermore, these findings highlight the significance of oceanic processes within the polar and subpolar regions and their contributions to paleoclimate changes.
