Effect of a variable eddy transfer coefficient in an eddy-permitting model of the subpolar North Atlantic Ocean
Download2005
The effect of using a variable eddy transfer coefficient for the Gent–McWilliams (GM) parameterization in a (1/3)°-resolution ocean model of the subpolar North Atlantic Ocean is investigated. Results from four experiments with different implementations of this coefficient are compared among...

Efficient Carbon Recycling at the Central‐Northern Lesser Antilles Arc: Implications to Deep Carbon Recycling in Global Subduction Zones
Download2020-04-23
Li, Kan, Li, Long, Aubaud, Cyril, Muehlenbachs, Karlis
Carbon recycling efficiency of arc (CREA) is an important parameter to assess the recycling of slab carbon into Earth's deep interior. Although previous studies observed variable degrees of recycled slab carbon at global arcs, the CREA value of any individual subduction zone has not been obtained...

Evolution of the New Zealand voluntary carbon market: An analysis of CarboNZero client disclosures
Download2015
Milne, Markus J., Murphy, Maya, Birchall, S. Jeff
Climate change has the potential to dramatically change the world as we know, both in terms of the environment and the way in which societies operate. Public policy responses to climate change continue to evolve, with many western economies proposing mechanisms for emission reductions, for...

Experimental investigation of formation and decomposition of roaldite in ammonia atmosphere at 300–700 °C and associated nitrogen isotope fractionations
Download2021-05-01
Li, Long, Cartigny, Pierre, Li, Kan
Roaldite (Fe4N) is one of the few nitride minerals found in meteorites. Their nitrogen (N) isotopic signatures carry important information for understanding the early N cycle in the proto-solar nebula. However, the lack of knowledge on the N isotopic effects from nitride formation to its survival...

Extreme High Greenland Blocking Index Leads to the Reversal of Davis and Nares Strait Net Transport Toward the Arctic Ocean
Download2021-01-01
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...

First records of syn-diagenetic non-tectonic folding in Quaternary thermogene travertines caused by hydrothermal incremental veining.
Download2017-01-01
Alçiçek, M.C., Alçiçek, H., Altunel, E., Arenas, C., Bons, P., Brogi, A., Capezzuoli, E., de Riese, T., Della Porta, G., Gandin, A., Guo, L., Jones, B., Karabacak, V., Kershaw, S., Liotta, D., Mindszenty, A., Pedley, M., Ronchi, P., Swennen, R., Temiz, U.
This study is the first documentation of syn-diagenetic non-tectonic contractional deformations observed in two Pleistocene thermogene travertine deposits from the late Miocene-Pleistocene Tuscan extensional-hydrothermal province (Italy). The deposits consist of primary porous beds hosting...

First-principles calculations of equilibrium nitrogen isotope fractionations among aqueous ammonium, silicate minerals and salts
Download2021-03-15
Li, Yonghui, Li, Long, Wu, Zhongqing
Nitrogen isotopes are a robust tool to study geological nitrogen cycle between Earth’s reservoirs. However, the application of nitrogen isotope system to understanding geological processes has been limited by the lack of constraints on equilibrium isotope fractionation factors between mineral and...

A series of experiments with an ocean general circulation model of the Mediterranean forced by artificial (but realistic) surface fluxes of heat and freshwater are performed. The model has a stable thermohaline circulation under the baseline fluxes. Small decreases in excess evaporation (8%)...

Formation of mixed paragenesis diamonds during multistage growth – constraints from in situ δ 13C–δ 15N–[N] analyses of Koidu diamonds
Download2022-01-01
Lai, Mei Yan, Stachel, Thomas, Stern, Richard A., Hardman, Matthew F., Pearson, D. Graham, Harris, Jeff W.
Abstract Inclusion-bearing diamonds from the Koidu kimberlite complex, Sierra Leone (West African Craton) were analyzed in situ for carbon and nitrogen isotope compositions, nitrogen concentrations and nitrogen aggregation states. In a suite of 105 diamonds, 78% contain eclogitic mineral...
