The Massachusetts Bay Hydrodynamic Model: 2005 Simulation. Boston: Massachusetts Water Resources Authority.

Both natural processes including climate change, seasonal variations and episodic events, and human activities including nutrient inputs and fisheries affect the physical and biogeochemical environment in the MBS. Monitoring and understanding of physical–biogeochemical processes in the MBS is important to resource management and environmental mitigation. Since 1992, the Massachusetts Water Resource Authority (MWRA) has been monitoring the MBS in one of the nation’s most comprehensive monitoring programs. Under a cooperative agreement between the MWRA and University of Massachusetts Boston (UMB), the UMB modeling team has conducted numerical simulations of the physical–biogeochemical conditions and processes in the MBS during 2000-2004. Under a new agreement between MWRA, Battelle and UMB, the UMB continues to conduct a numerical simulation for 2005, a year in which the MBS experienced an unprecedented red–tide event that cost tens of millions dollars to Massachusetts shellfish industry. This report presents the model validation and simulated physical environment in 2005.

  • Missão De Avaliação E Levantamento Do Sítio Submarino Do Clipper Thermopylae
    Missão de avaliação e levantamento do sítio submarino do clipper Thermopylae JORGE FREIRE JEAN-YVES BLOT ANA VIEITES ANTÓNIO FIALHO FABIAN REICHERDT RESUMO O presente artigo diz respeito aos vestígios submarinos do grande veleiro comercial Ther- mopylae, construído na Escócia em 1868 e afundado em manobras navais ao largo de Cascais em 1907, já sob a forma do pontão Pedro Nunes. Reduzidos ao estatuto de pesqueiro anónimo frequentado pelos pescadores locais, os vestígios submersos foram formalmente identifica- dos quase um século após o afundamento e pouco depois integrados no tecido patrimonial da região. Uma missão da Câmara Municipal de Cascais realizada no decurso do Verão de 2009 pôs em destaque os parâmetros técnicos, físicos e culturais associados a este naufrágio que se cruza com a história da oceanografia e da gestão das pescarias em Portugal. Este par- ticularismo do arqueosítio de hoje conduz a uma abordagem transdisciplinar na qual a arqueologia dos destroços físicos do navio de 1868 se molda no espaço identitário, físico e cultural, da região estuarina. ABSTRACT The former British clipper Thermopylae built in Aberdeen in 1868 was later renamed Pedro Nunes and sunk in 1907 during a naval exercise off Cascais, Portugal, in the vicinity of the Tagus river estuary. Known to local fishermen, the wreck remains were for- mally identified almost one century after the sinking and soon integrated within the network of local heritage accessible to the (diving) public. A recent mission promoted by Cascais municipality did enhance the technical, physical and cultural parameters attached to the shipwreck remains which appear to be at the core of the history of oceanography and fishery management in Portugal, fusing in the process a transdisciplinary approach in which the archaeology of the physical remains fits into the physical and cultural identity of this estua- rine region.
