Durbin, Ted edurbin@gsosun1.gso.uri.edu
- Interests:
- Data:
Fisher, Karen kef10@cornell.edu
- Interests: I'm trying to gather as much information about the
contributions of various water masses to the circulation patterns
around the Bank 95-99 as possible. I'm also particularly interested
in observations of fluroscence during GLOBEC.
- Data: I've been working on analyzing the spatial frequency of the
alongtrack data from the Broadscale cruises, primarily using wavelet
analysis to investigate the seasonal and interannual changes in
characteristic length scales of fluroescence, salinity, and
temperature. I'm currently working to add in acoustic data from Peter
Wiebe's Greene Bomber to the F, T and S from the Jan Mar Jun 98 and 99
records.
Flierl, Glenn glenn@lake.mit.edu
- Interests: Ring interactions.
- Data: modelling.
Gallager, Scott sgallager@whoi.edu
- Interests: Pull together data from VPR and Seasoar and interpret in
terms of other programs.
- Data: VPR on Seasoar during shelf-slope survey
Greene, Chuck chg2@cornell.edu
- Interests: Advances of Labrador Slope Water down the shelf
displacing the Atlantic Slope Water as it progresses.
- Data:
Groman, Bob rgroman@whoi.edu
- Interests: Making the program's data available to the scientific
investigators.
- Data: All of it
Horgan, Erich ehorgan@whoi.edu
- Interests:
- Data:
Lee, Craig craig@apl.washington.edu
- Interests: Loss and retention processes, especially interactions
between Gulf Stream intrusions and the shelf break front.
- Data: Highly resolved, three-dimensional SeaSoar surveys from
spring and summer of 1997.
Lentz, Steve slentz@whoi.edu
- Interests: Shelf-slope exchange (physical oceanography) influence on
temp/salt.
- Data:
Lough, Greg Gregory.Lough@noaa.gov
- Interests:Slope water intrusion and shelfbreak jet and its effect
on larval advection along the southern flank of Georges Bank.
- Data:
Manning, Jim jmanning@whsun1.wh.whoi.edu
- Interests: Slope water intrusion and shelfbreak jet and its effect
on larval advection along the southern flank of Georges Bank.
- Data:
Michaels, Bill wmichael@whsun1.wh.whoi.edu
- Interests: ?
- Data: COP cruise (FR/V Katadon 95-02) conducted a systematic survey
of about 50 station along the southern flank which was repeated three
times during May 95 providing weekly plots of hydrography, larval
fish, and their predators (herring, mackerel, etc). Results
indicated slope water intrusion, and a paper has been submitted.
Naimie, Chris christopher.e.naimie@dartmouth.edu
- Interests: Slope water intrusion and shelfbreak jet and its effect
on larval advection along the southern flank of Georges Bank.
- Data:
Pershing, Andrew J. ajp9@cornell.edu
- Interests: Better understanding of how cold slope water moves down
the shelf and how it may influence the ecology of the Gulf of Maine.
- Data: Working with Greene and Wiebe on BIOMAPPER TS, have also
looked at time series from BIO and tried to relate them to the NAO and
to C. finmarchicus abundance in the Gulf.
Quinlan, John jaq@whoi.edu
- Interests:
- Data:
Ryan, John ryjo@mbari.org
- Interests: Satellite studies of the shelf/slope frontal processes.
- Data:
Schlitz, Ron rschlitz@whsun1.wh.whoi.edu
- Interests: PO an PO/Bio.
- Data: 1997 Recirculation.
Smith, Keston ksmith@whsun1.wh.whoi.edu
- Interests: PO an PO/Bio.
- Data: 1997 Recirculation.
Wiebe, Peter pwiebe@whoi.edu
- Interests: I would like to participate in the Workshop and have high
frequency acoustics data collected with the Greene Bomber and perhaps
some BIOMAPER (not BIOMAPER II) that covers the southern flank and
Slope Water for January, March, and June/July periods plus high
resolution surface temperature, salinity, and fluorescence. My
objective would be to look at the acoustics patterns relative to the
physical and biological structure of the water column and to compare
the larger scale patterns of backscattering to model predictions of
the cross-bank secondary circulation patterns.
- Data: Data for the period 1995 to 1999.
Wishner, Karen kwishner@gsosun1.gso.uri.edu
- Interests: Would like to make progress on integrating process cruise
data (especially 1997) with larger picture. How does the detrainment
feature we studied in detail (EN301) fit into the bigger picture of
Bank-Slope Water interactions? Implications for the 1999 cross-frontal
studies might be preliminarily addressed, but probably most of this
topic would be an issue for the Oct. cross-frontal workshop.
- Data: 1997 process cruises (EN296, 298, 301): MOC Calanus
distributions (vertically stratifed) around Bank, sections (MOC and
CTD) across detrainment feature. Also, 1999 cross-frontal cruises
(esp. EN 325): MOC and CTD profiles during specific tidal phases on
and off-Bank at southern flank.
Yoder, Jim yoder@biosat.gso.uri.edu
- Interests: Satellite studies of the shelf/slope frontal processes.
