Bentley, R. Pienitz, M. Gosselin, M. Blais, M. Carpenter, E. Estrada, T. Richerol, E. Kahlmeyer, S. Luque, B. Sjare, A. Fisk, S. Iverson Abstract Long marine inlets that are classified as either fjords or fjards indent the Labrador coast. Along the moun- tainous north coast a classic fjord landscape dominates, with deep (up to ~300 m) muddy basins separated by rocky sills and flanked by high (up to 1,000 m), steep sidewalls. In contrast, the fjards of the central and southern coast are generally shallow (150 m), irregularly shaped inlets with gently sloping sidewalls and large intertidal zones. These fjords and fjards are important feeding grounds for marine mammals and seabirds and are commonly used by Inuit for hunting and travel. Despite their ecological and socio-cultural importance, these marine ecosystems are largely understudied. The Nunatsiavut Nuluak project has, as a primary goal, to undertake baseline inventories and comparative assessments of representative marine ecosystems in Labrador, including benthic and pelagic community composition, distribution and abun- dance, fjord processes, and oceanographic conditions. A case study demonstrating ecosystem resilience to anthropogenic disturbance is examined. This information provides a foundation for further research and monitoring as climate change and anthropogenic pressures alter recent baselines.

  • Restoring a Degraded Gulf of Mexico
    April 2012 | Visit: www.NWF.org/oilspill Introduction Three years after the Deepwater Horizon disaster, this report gives a snapshot view of six wildlife species that depend on a healthy Gulf and the coastal wetlands that are critical to the Gulf’s food web. In August 2011, scientists did a comprehensive health examination of a 16-year-old male bottlenose dolphin. This dolphin—dubbed Y12 for research purposes—was caught near Grand Isle, a Louisiana barrier island that was oiled during the Gulf oil disaster.i Like many of the 31 other dolphins examined in the study, Y12 was found to be severely ill—underweight, anemic and with signs of liver and lung disease. The dolphins’ symptoms were consistent with those seen in other mammals exposed to oil; researchers feared many of the dolphins studied were so ill they would not survive.ii Seven months later, Y12’s emaciated carcass washed up on the beach at Grand Isle.iii Ecosystem-wide effects of the oil are suggested by the poor health of dolphins, which are at the top of the Gulf’s food chain. The same may be true of sea turtles, which also continue to die in alarmingly high numbers. More than 650 dolphins have been found stranded in the oil spill area since the Gulf oil disaster began. This is more than four times the historical average. Research shows that polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) components of oil from the Macondo well were found in plankton even after the well was capped.iv, v PAHs can have carcinogenic, physiological and genetic effects.

  • SUBMARINE CANYONS : DISTRIBUTION and LONGITUDINAL PROFILES By
    SUBMARINE CANYONS : DISTRIBUTION AND LONGITUDINAL PROFILES by Francis P. SHEPARD and Charles N. BEARD. (Reproduced from Geographical Review, New-York, July 1938, page 439). In the recent discussions of submarine canyons (1) there has been a tendency to base con­ clusions on the characteristics of selected examples, such as the canyons off Georges Bank, without much regard for the facts that the canyons are universal features and that they are associated with all kinds of conditions. Information on the distribution of many of the canyons has not been generally available, and there is practically no information regarding their longitu­ dinal profiles. In discussing these matters it seems advisable to take the opportunity of naming the canyons in order to facilitate future reference to them. BASIS FOR CANYON NAMES. In choosing names for the canyons (Table I) the Writers utilized practically all names used on charts and by earlier Writers such as Davidson (2) and H ull (3). In general, if a canyon heads towards a river mouth, the name of the river has been given to it. For other canyons the name of some shore feature or of a town in the vicinity Was used. However, there are a number of canyons whose heads are so far from the shore that it seemed unwise to name them after shore features. For these canyons names of vessels Were used, vessels being chosen that had played some part in the exploration of the canyons. In the lists in Table I the names of these canyons are underlined. One canyon off Georges Bank was named Georges Canyon because of its nearness to the dangerous Georges Shoal.

The origin of this sustained sound has remained mysterious, partly because of its rarity in nature (2). It has been recognized that the sound is not due to the air flow around the dunes but to the motion of an avalanche (3), and not to an acoustic excitation of the grains but to their relative motion (4-7). By comparing several singing dunes and two controlled experiments, one in the laboratory and one in the field, we here demonstrate that the frequency of the sound is the frequency of the relative motion of the sand grains. The sound is produced because some moving grains synchronize their motions. The existence of a velocity threshold in both experiments further shows that this synchronization comes from an acoustic resonance within the flowing layer: if the layer is large enough it creates a resonance cavity in which grains self-synchronize. Sound files are provided as supplementary information. In musical instruments, sustained sound is obtained through the coupling of excitation and resonance.
