This book was released on 2023-11-27 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Submarine canyons are some of the most prominent features of the world’s continental margins creating heterogeneity in the terrain, influencing local and global hydrodynamics and often creating hotspots of biodiversity, both on the seafloor and in the water column. Canyon morphology and location on the margin make them the main conduits between the shelf and the deep sea, focussing the transport of sediments, organic matter, nutrients, and increasingly pollutants and litter. The focus of this Research Topic is highlighting human connections to the deep sea. Previous studies have underlined the need for a better understanding of anthropogenic impacts on submarine canyons, and how they fast-track our human footprint to the deep sea. Besides a better assessment of the extent and nature of human activities in submarine canyons, it primarily requires a holistic understanding of submarine canyons as systems, governed by the interplay of geological, sedimentological, oceanographic and biological processes. The goal of this Research Topic, based on the recent INCISE2021 International Symposium on Submarine Canyons, aims to fill that gap by gathering the latest observations of human activities in submarine canyons, the latest insights in submarine canyon functioning, and the latest interpretations on how the two are influencing each other.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Healthy oceans are critical to the future of all life on Earth, yet by and large the underwater world remains hidden to us, unknown and mysterious. The mission of the Monterey Bay Aquarium is to inspire conservation of the oceans, and this series of books is intended to further that goal. By helping people discover their connection with the natural world, we hope to foster a lifelong commitment to learning about and caring for the oceans on which all life depends."--Julie Packard, Executive Director, Monterey Bay Aquarium

Download or read book A Photographic Reconnaissance of the Microrelief in the Monterey and Carmel Submarine Canyons, California written by John Alexander Jensen and published by . This book was released on 1976 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Over 500 underwater photographs were taken in the Monterey and Carmel submarine canyons for the purpose of studying their microrelief. The pictures indicated that a variety of biological and physical differences exist not only within each canyon but also between the two nearby canyons. In MOnterey Canyon are to be found fine grain sediments which have been very actively churned by benthic organisms. Few rock outcrops were noted, and definitive evidence of current activity in the form of ripple marks was observed in only one region. Carmel Canyon included generally coarser grain material than Monterey Canyon and showed a marked absence of active burrowing. A large number of rock outcrops was observed and there appeared to be extensive current activity throughout most of the canyon. (Author).

Download or read book Tidal Oscillations at the Head of Monterey Submarine Canyon and Their Relation to Oceanographic Sampling and the Circulation of Water in Monterey Bay written by William W. Broenkow and published by . This book was released on 1972 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During a 25-hour hydrographic times series at two stations near the head of Monterey Submarine Canyon, an internal tide was observed with an amplitude of 80 to 115 m in water depths of 120 and 220 m respectively. These large oscillations produced daily variations in hydrographic and chemical parameters that were of the same magnitude as seasonal variations in Monterey Bay. Computed velocities associated with the internal tide were on the order of 10 em/sec, and this tidally induced circulation may have a significant role in the exchange of deep water between Monterey Submarine Canyon and the open ocean.

Download or read book Circulation Within Monterey Submarine Canyon written by and published by . This book was released on 1995 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our immediate objective is to analyze one year's worth of data on the water circulation and vertical and lateral transport of suspended particulate matter within Monterey Submarine Canyon. We will use these data to: estimate the transport of water and particulates through the Monterey Submarine Canyon; compare the low frequency circulation and density structure at a 'wide' and at a 'narrow' portion of the canyon; relate the circulation in the canyon to parameters of the flow over the canyon, deep flow outside the canyon, and to the topographic features of the canyon; evaluate the kinetic energy distribution, including tidal and higher frequencies, as a function of along-canyon distance (and hence canyon width) and depth; investigate the spatial patterns of particulate matter in the water column and examine the relationship between measured currents and volume transport of suspended particulate matter. We will compare our results to published theoretical predictions of circulation within canyons.
