Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) is a major pathway for nutrient transport in coastal marine systems. There are indications that SGD may also release large amounts of dissolved organic matter (DOM) to the coastal ocean and thus...
Fire-derived compounds have received considerable attention as a refractory form of dissolved organic carbon (DOC), the largest carbon pool in the ocean. Due to its recalcitrant nature, pyrogenic or black carbon, which is produced by the...
Lagged correlation of dynamic height from the gappy California Cooperative Oceanic Fisheries Investigation (CalCOFI) with monthly San Diego sea level for the period 1949-2001 shows that the dynamic height propagates westward at 4.10 cm/s...
This study addresses the decomposition of dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in highly permeable coastal sand sediments. DOC fluxes from shelf sediments (~180 Tg C yr-1) are significant, roughly equal to the DOC flux from rivers (~200 Tg C...
This dissertation presents an experimental study of the buoyancy fluxes produced by salt fingers in the presence of a laminar shear flow. An annular tank was used in the experiments. Sugar and salt were used as the diffusing components....
Large portions of the world ocean are less productive than they should be based on their nutrient concentrations. Dubbed high-nutrient low-chlorophyll (HNLC) regions, primary productivity in these areas may be limited by any number of...
Submarine groundwater discharge (SGD) is an important pathway for trace element and nutrient cycling in the coastal ocean. I use a combination of hydrological and geochemical tracer observations to gain insights into the natural and...
