Gillard, Laura C., Hu, Xianmin, Myers, Paul G., Bamber, Jonathan L.
The Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) stores the largest amount of freshwater in the Northern Hemisphere and has been recently losing mass at an increasing rate. An eddy-permitting ocean general circulation model is forced with realistic estimates of freshwater flux from the GrIS. Two approaches are...

Jones, Brian, de Ronde, C., Renaut, Robin W.
The Giggenbach submarine volcano, which forms part of the Kermadec active arc front, is located ∼780 km NNE of the North Island of New Zealand. Samples collected from chimneys associated with seafloor hydrothermal vents on this volcano, at a depth of 160–180 m, contain silicified microbes and...

Mineralogical, crystallographic, and isotopic constraints on the precipitation of aragonite and calcite at Shiqiang and other hot springs in Yunnan Province, China.
Download2016-01-01
Two active spring vent pools at Shiqiang (Yunnan Province, China) are characterized by a complex array of precipitates that coat the wall around the pool and the narrow ledges that surround the vent pool. These precipitates include arrays of aragonite crystals, calcite cone-dendrites, red spar...

Mixed Methods Research: A comprehensive approach for study into the New Zealand voluntary carbon market
Download2016
Murphy, Maya, Milne, Markus, Birchall, S. Jeff
Climate change and solutions to solving this wicked problem require a mixed methods research approach that draws on quantitative and qualitative inquiry together. The purpose of this article is to demonstrate the applicability (and effectiveness) of a mixed methods approach applied to research...

Modeling dissolved and particulate 230Thin the Canada Basin: Implications for recent changes in particle flux and intermediate circulation
Download2020-01-01
Yu, Xiaoxin, Allen, Susan E., Francois, Roger, Grenier, Melanie, Myers, Paul G., Hu, Xianmin
Global climate change has had large impacts on the Arctic region including rapid reductions in sea ice and rapid increases in surface air temperatures. Documenting the consequences of these changes in the Arctic Ocean is difficult, however, because accessibility limits observations in space and...

Modeling the paleocirculation of the Mediterranean: The Last Glacial Maximum and the Holocene with emphasis on the formation of sapropel S1
Download1998
Myers, Paul G., Rohling, Eelco J., Haines, Keith
An ocean general circulation model is used to simulate the thermohaline circulation in the Mediterranean sea during the last glacial maximum and the Holocene, when the sapropel S1 was deposited. The model is forced by prescribed surface temperatures and salinities, where present-day values lead...

Modern travertine precipitation at Lýsuhóll hot springs, Snæfellnes, Iceland: implications for calcite crystal growth.
Download2017-01-01
Three thermal springs, at Lýsuhóll on Snæfellnes Peninsula on the west coast of Iceland, with vent water temperatures of 20 to 46°C are characterized by thriving microbial mats that mediate the precipitation of opal-A, Fe-rich opal-A, Fe-rich reticulate coatings, and calcite that are intermixed...

N2 in deep subsurface fracture fluids of the Canadian Shield: Source and possible recycling processes
Download2021-12-20
Li, Long, Li, Kan, Giunta, Thomas, Warr, Oliver, Labidi, Jabrane, Lollar, Barbara Sherwood
In addition to high concentrations of CH4 and H2, abundant dissolved N2 is found in subsurface fracture fluids in Precambrian cratons around the world. These fracture fluids have hydrogeological isolation times on order of thousands to millions and even billions of years. Assessing the sources...

Donovan, S.K., Jones, B., Harper, D.A.T.
The first fossil echinoids are recorded from the Cayman Islands. A regular echinoid, Arbacia? sp., the spatangoids Brissus sp. cf. B. oblongus Wright and Schizaster sp. cf. S. americanus (Clark), and the clypeasteroid Clypeaster sp. are from the Middle Miocene Cayman Formation. Test fragments of...
