Seminar: Alexander Piotrowski (University of Cambridge). Can deep ocean circulation pathways and strength be reconstructed using marine sediment dispersion?

Jaeger 1 Seminar Room Research School of Earth Sciences, 142 Mills Rd, Acton, ACT, Australia

Ocean circulation plays a key role in the Earth’s climate system because surface ocean currents transport heat and deep ocean water masses can sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Geochemical proxies measured on carbonate foraminifera picked from marine sediments have been widely utilized to reconstruct past ocean changes. However, it is difficult to use the... View Article

Seminar: Long time changes of nutrients and it’s ecological effects in the East China Sea under the stress of anthropogenic activities

Climate Change Research Centre (CCRC) 4th Floor, Matthews Building, UNSW, Kensington, NSW, Australia

Jin Haiyan (Laboratory of Marine Ecosystem and Biogeochemistry, Second Institute of Oceanography, State Oceanic Administration, China). In the East China Sea, Changjiang Diluted Water (CDW) influenced area was characterized as eutrophic area with high anthropogenic nutrients inputs. Nitrate concentration increased 6 times during the last 50 years from ~30 umol/L to ~150 umol/L.While the increase... View Article
