We use an evolutionary approach to find “most appropriate” dispersal models for ecological applications. From a random walk with locally or nonlocally defined transition probabilities we derive a family of diffusion equations. We assume a monotonic dependence of its diffusion coefficient on...

Extreme High Greenland Blocking Index Leads to the Reversal of Davis and Nares Strait Net Transport Toward the Arctic Ocean

Myers, Paul G., de al Guardia, Laura Castro, Fu, Chuanshuai, Gillard, Laura C., Grivault, Nathan, Hu, Xianmin, Lee, Craig M., Moore, G. W. K., Pennelly, Clark, Ribergaard, Mads Hvid, Romanski, Joy
Baffin Bay exports Arctic Water to the North Atlantic while receiving northward flowing Atlantic Water. Warm Atlantic Water has impacted the retreat of tidewater glaciers draining the Greenland Ice Sheet. Periods of enhanced Atlantic Water transport into Baffin Bay have been observed, but the...

The goal of this guide is to derive a better understanding of the biodiversity of sponges across the eastern Canadian Arctic. Specimens were collected during research cruises aboard the Canadian Coast Guard Ship (CCGS) Amundsen in October 2015, July 2016 and July 2017. Collection sites were...

Folding of biomolecules is an important problem in structural biology. The physical folding can be projected as a diffusive search over an energy landscape whose dimensions scale by all the internal degrees of freedom which a biomolecule possesses. To explore this idea, folding is studied from...

The LAB60 simulation is a coupled ocean sea-ice model (NEMO) that uses grid refinement to achieve high resolution (1/60 of a degree) within the Labrador Sea. This video shows the freshwater layer thickness (in meters), relative to a salinity of 34.8, from 2005 through the end of 2018. Higher...

Condensed phase reactions in the presence of heterogeneous catalysts are widely performed for the conversion of biomass into useful intermediates and value-added products. Specifically, nanoporous catalysts have garnered interest for liquid-phase oxidation, hydrogenation, dehydrogenation and/or...

Greenland freshwater pathways in the sub-Arctic seas from model experiments with passive tracers

Chassignet, Eric, Lee, Craig M., Bamber, Jonathan L., Curry, Beth, Dukhovskoy, Dmitry S., Timmermans, Mary-Louise, Platov, Gennady, Myers, Paul G., Proshutinsky, Andrey, Hu, Xianmin, Somavilla, Raquel
Accelerating since the early 1990s, the Greenland Ice Sheet mass loss exerts a significant impact on thermohaline processes in the sub-Arctic seas. Surplus freshwater discharge from Greenland since the 1990s, comparable in volume to the amount of freshwater present during the Great Salinity...

The LAB60 simulation is a coupled ocean sea-ice model (NEMO) that uses grid refinement to achieve high resolution (1/60 of a degree) within the Labrador Sea. This simulation starts in 2002 and will cover a period of over 10 years. This video shows our Greenland runoff passive tracer depth...

A numerical modeling sensitivity study is carried out within the Labrador Sea by varying the atmospheric conditions. From forcing NEMO simulations with five atmospheric products commonly used in ocean modeling (DFS5.2, ERA-Interim, CGRF, ERA5, and JRA55-do), we calculate the air–sea heat fluxes...

ALBAHLANI, ALMUATASIM MOHAMMED
This thesis introduces a new approach for heavy-oil recovery from fractured reservoirs: Steam-Over-Solvent Injection in Fractured Reservoirs (SOS-FR). The SOS-FR technique is a new technology proposed as an alternative method to the sole injection of steam or solvent and consists of three...
