Considering the significance of water exchange between the nearshore and offshore waters
to shallow-water biogeochemical processes, the influences of wind and baroclinic …

This study uses ROMS (Regional Ocean Modeling System) with realistic forcing to analyse
cross-shelf transport associated with the presence of mesoscale anticyclones as they …

Abstract Following the Deepwater Horizon (DWH) spill, oil residues were found in all five
Gulf states of the United States (Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida) …

Yearly-average along-shelf winds were predominantly upcoast over the last two decades,
but large seasonal fluctuations existed. This study provides an example of how the passage …

Moving weather systems determine the history of wind variations with patterns as the
systems transit through the ocean. These weather systems are integrated entities that can …

A large set of historical surface drifter data from the Gulf of Mexico–3770 trajectories
spanning 28 years and more than a dozen data sources–are collected, uniformly processed …

Broadened width of high chlorophyll concentration band with wavy structures, patches, and
filaments are often observed along the western coastal next to the Pearl River Estuary over …

Cross-shelf transport is an important material exchange process between the shelf seas and
open seas. The distribution characteristics of phytoplankton, surface sediment particle size …

Wind and current measurements collected between February and March 2017 at three sites
in the southern Texas coast were used to determine along-shelf flow variations induced by …

Extreme weather events such as hurricanes are expected to become more severe with the
human-induced increase in average global temperatures, exacerbating the risk of major …
