Integration of developmental and environmental forcing in life history models of planktonic organisms

In a longer perspective the proposed research aims at integrating certain aspects of two major, although separated, domains in current biology: The first domain extends from the molecule to the organisms, while the second extends from organism to populati on biology, biodiversity studies, and eco...

Effect of longitudial Marangoni waves on the surface wave signature of a film covered ocean

Thin surface films cover large areas of the ocean surface. They are of biogenic as well as of antropogenic origin,i.e. chemical breakdown of dead organisms or petroleum spills from ships or offshore industry. Such films have a profound influence on the sh ort surface wave climate of the ocean. Th...

Mass transport in free barotropic and baroclinic Sverdrup waves in a viscous rotating ocean

The fact that friction significantly modifies long barotropic waves was first demonstrated by Sverdrup (1927) and Fjeldstad (1929) in their analyses of the semi-diurnal tides on the North Siberian Shelf. Features such as reduced phase speed, decreasing am plitude as the waves progress and phase l...
