    The Gulf of Mexico Regional Collaborative (GoMRC) is a NASA-funded project that has as its goal to develop an integrated, working, prototype IT infrastructure for Earth science data, knowledge and models for the five Gulf U.S. states and Mexico, and to demonstrate its ability to help decision-makers better understand critical Gulf-scale issues. Within this preview, the mission of this project is to provide cross cutting solution network and rapid prototyping capability for the Gulf of Mexico region, in order to demonstrate substantial, collaborative, multi-agency research and transitional capabilities using unique NASA data sets and models to address regional problems. SERVIR Mesoamerica is seen as an excellent existing framework that can be used to integrate observational and GIs data bases, provide a sensor web interface, visualization and interactive analysis tools, archival functions, data dissemination and product generation within a Rapid Prototyping concept to assist decision-makers in better understanding Gulf-scale environmental issues.

    In the wake of hurricanes Katrina and Rita, NASA created the Gulf of Mexico Initiative (GOMI) to help the region recover and to build the capacity of local and regional organizations to utilize NASA Earth science assets to establish effective policies, encourage sustainable natural resource management and utilization, and to expeditiously respond to crises. GOMI worked closely with the Gulf of Mexico Alliance (GOMA), a regional collaboration of the five US Gulf states and 13 federal agencies, to select projects that addressed high priority issues of the region. Many capabilities developed by this initiative have been adopted by end-users and have been leveraged to respond to other natural and man made disasters such as the Deepwater Horizon oil spill (2010), record breaking floods along the Mississippi River (2011), unprecedented tornado supercells (2011), and extreme drought (2012). Examples of successful capacity building projects will be presented and the lessons learned from these projects will be discussed.

    Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV) has been the causative agent for sporadic epidemics and equine epizootics throughout the Americas since the 1930s. In 1969, an outbreak of Venezuelan equine encephalitis (VEE) spread rapidly from Guatemala and through the Gulf Coast region of Mexico, reaching Texas in 1971. Since this outbreak, there have been very few studies to determine the northward extent of endemic VEEV in this region. This study reports the findings of serologic surveillance in the Gulf Coast region of Mexico from 2003-2010. Phylogenetic analysis was also performed on viral isolates from this region to determine whether there have been substantial genetic changes in VEEV since the 1960s. Based on the findings of this study, the Gulf Coast lineage of subtype IE VEEV continues to actively circulate in this region of Mexico and appears to be responsible for infection of humans and animals throughout this region, including the northern State of Tamaulipas, which borders Texas.

    The Gulf Coast Ecosystem Restoration Task Force (GCERTF) was established by Executive Order 13554 as a result of recommendations from “America’s Gulf Coast: A Long-term Recovery Plan after the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill” by Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus (Mabus Report). The GCERTF consists of members from 11 Federal agencies and representatives from each State bordering the Gulf of Mexico. The GCERTF was charged to develop a holistic, long-term, science-based Regional Ecosystem Restoration Strategy for the Gulf of Mexico. Federal and State agencies staffed the GCERTF with experts in fields such as policy, budgeting, and science to help develop the Strategy. The Strategy was built on existing authorities and resources and represents enhanced collaboration and a recognition of the shared responsibility among Federal and State governments to restore the Gulf Coast ecosystem. In this time of severe fiscal constraints, Task Force member agencies and States are committed to establishing shared priorities and working together to achieve them.As part of this effort, three staffers, one National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) scientist and two U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) scientists, created and led a Science Coordination Team (SCT) to guide scientific input into the development of the Gulf of Mexico Regional Ecosystem Restoration Strategy. The SCT leads from the GCERTF coordinated more than 70 scientists from the Federal and State Task Force member agencies to participate in development of a restoration-oriented science document focused on the entire Gulf of Mexico, from inland watersheds to the deep blue waters. The SCT leads and scientists were organized into six different working groups based on expanded goals from the Mabus Report: Coastal habitats are healthy and resilient.Living coastal and marine resources are healthy, diverse, and sustainable.Coastal communities are adaptive and resilient.Storm buffers are sustainable.Inland habitats and

    2011-01-01

    The northern Gulf of Mexico coastal region and its diverse ecosystems are threatened by population and development pressure and by the impacts of rising sea level and severe storms such as the series of hurricanes that has impacted the northern Gulf in recent years. In response to the complex management issues facing the region, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) organized a multidisciplinary research program to coordinate the activities of USGS and other scientists working in the northern Gulf of Mexico region (fig. 1). The Northern Gulf of Mexico (NGOM) Ecosystem Change and Hazard Susceptibility Project aims to develop a thorough understanding of the dynamic coastal ecosystems on the northern Gulf coast, the impact of human activities on these ecosystems, and the vulnerability of ecosystems and human communities to more frequent and more intense hurricanes in the future. A special issue of Geo-Marine Letters published in December 2009 is devoted to early results of studies completed as part of this project. These studies, which have been conducted at sites throughout the northern Gulf region, from the Chandeleur Islands to Apalachicola Bay, have focused on three themes: (1) The underlying geologic framework that exerts controls over coastal processes (2) The impact of human activities on nearshore water quality (3) Hurricanes and associated effects

  7. Local and regional species diversity of benthic Isopoda (Crustacea) in the deep Gulf of Mexico

    NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)

    Wilson, George D. F.

    2008-12-01

    Recent studies of deep-sea faunas considered the influence of mid-domain models in the distribution of species diversity and richness with depth. In this paper, I show that separating local diversity from regional species richness in benthic isopods clarifies mid-domain effects in the distribution of isopods in the Gulf of Mexico. Deviations from the randomised implied species ranges can be informative to understanding general patterns within the Gulf of Mexico. The isopods from the GoMB study contained 135 species, with a total of 156 species including those from an earlier study. More than 60 species may be new to science. Most families of deep-sea isopods (suborder Asellota) were present, although some were extremely rare. The isopod family Desmosomatidae dominated the samples, and one species of Macrostylis (Macrostylidae) was found in many samples. Species richness for samples pooled within sites ranged from 1 to 52 species. Because species in pooled samples were highly correlated with individuals, species diversity was compared across sites using the expected species estimator ( n=15 individuals, ES 15). Six depth transects had idiosyncratic patterns of ES 15, and transects with the greatest short-range variation in topography, such as basins and canyons, had the greatest short-range disparity. Basins on the deep slope did not have a consistent influence (i.e., relatively higher or lower than surrounding areas) on the comparative species diversity. ES 15 of all transects together showed a weak mid-domain effect, peaking around 1200-1500 m, with low values at the shallowest and deepest samples (Sigsbee Abyssal Plain); no longitudinal (east-west) pattern was found. The regional species pool was analyzed by summing the implied ranges of all species. The species ranges in aggregate did not have significant patterns across longitudes, and many species had broad depth ranges, suggesting that the isopod fauna of the Gulf of Mexico is well dispersed. The summed

    It is widely recognized that wetlands, especially those rich in organic matter and receiving appreciable atmospheric mercury (Hg) inputs, are important sites of methylmercury (MeHg) production. Extensive wetlands in the southeastern United States have many ecosystem attributes ideal for promoting high MeHg production rates; however, relatively few mercury cycling studies have been conducted in these environments. We conducted a landscape scale study examining Hg cycling in coastal Louisiana (USA) including four field trips conducted between August 2003 and May 2005. Sites were chosen to represent different ecosystem types, including: a large shallow eutrophic estuarine lake (Lake Pontchartrain), three rivers draining into the lake, a cypress-tupelo dominated freshwater swamp, and six emergent marshes ranging from a freshwater marsh dominated by Panicum hemitomon to a Spartina alterniflora dominated salt marsh close to the Gulf of Mexico. We measured MeHg and total Hg (THg) concentrations, and ancillary chemical characteristics, in whole and filtered surface water, and filtered porewater. Overall, MeHg concentrations were greatest in surface water of freshwater wetlands and lowest in the profundal (non-vegetated) regions of the lake and river mainstems. Concentrations of THg and MeHg in filtered surface water were positively correlated with the highly reactive, aromatic (hydrophobic organic acid) fraction of dissolved organic carbon (DOC). These results suggest that DOC plays an important role in promoting the mobility, transport and bioavailability of inorganic Hg in these environments. Further, elevated porewater concentrations in marine and brackish wetlands suggest coastal wetlands along the Gulf Coast are key sites for MeHg production and may be a principal source of MeHg to foodwebs in the Gulf of Mexico. Examining the relationships among MeHg, THg, and DOC across these multiple landscape types is a first step in evaluating possible links between key zones for

    Gulf of Mexico (Gulf) fisheries account for 41% of the U.S. marine recreational fish catch and 16% of the nation's marine commercial fish landings. Mercury (Hg) concentrations are elevated in some fish species in the Gulf, including king mackerel, sharks, and tilefish. All five Gulf states have fish consumption advisories based on Hg. Per-capita fish consumption in the Gulf region is elevated compared to the U.S. national average, and recreational fishers in the region have a potential for greater MeHg exposure due to higher levels of fish consumption. Atmospheric wet Hg deposition is estimated to be higher in the Gulf region compared to most other areas in the U.S., but the largest source of Hg to the Gulf as a whole is the Atlantic Ocean (>90%) via large flows associated with the Loop Current. Redistribution of atmospheric, Atlantic and terrestrial Hg inputs to the Gulf occurs via large scale water circulation patterns, and further work is needed to refine estimates of the relative importance of these Hg sources in terms of contributing to fish Hg levels in different regions of the Gulf. Measurements are needed to better quantify external loads, in-situ concentrations, and fluxes of total Hg and methylmercury in the water column, sediments, and food web.

  13. Geologic assessments and characterization of marine sand resources - Gulf of Mexico region

    USGS Publications Warehouse

    Williams, S. Jeffress; Cichon, Helana A.

    1993-01-01

    The U.S. Geological Survey conducts geologic surveys and research in marine areas of the United States and its territories and possessions. An objective in some of the investigations is locating and evaluating marine sand and gravel resources and interpretation of the origins of the sand body deposits. Results from such studies over the past 30 years show that many extremely large deposits are located close to expanding metropolitan areas, which have a need for aggregate materials for construction, and near-developed coastal areas, where beach replenishment may be used to mitigate coastal erosion. The Gulf of Mexico continental shelf from the Florida Peninsula to the Mexico border is an enormous area, but little attention has been directed on sand and gravel resources. Based on limited surveys, the total sand and gravel resources for the entire Gulf of Mexico is estimated to be 269 billion cubic meters. However, the sand tends to be fine-grained and is often mixed with mud; gravel deposits, except for shell, are mostly nonexistent.

  14. Regional maps of subsurface geopressure gradients of the onshore and offshore Gulf of Mexico basin

    2013-01-01

    The U.S. Geological Survey created a comprehensive geopressure-gradient model of the regional pressure system spanning the onshore and offshore Gulf of Mexico basin, USA. This model was used to generate ten maps that included (1) five contour maps characterizing the depth to the surface defined by the first occurrence of isopressure gradients ranging from 0.60 psi/ft to 1.00 psi/ft, in 0.10-psi/ft increments; and (2) five supporting maps illustrating the spatial density of the data used to construct the contour maps. These contour maps of isopressure-gradients at various increments enable the identification and quantification of the occurrence, magnitude, location, and depth of the subsurface pressure system, which allows for the broad characterization of regions exhibiting overpressured, underpressured, and normally pressured strata. Identification of overpressured regions is critical for exploration and evaluation of potential undiscovered hydrocarbon accumulations based on petroleum-generation pressure signatures and pressure-retention properties of reservoir seals. Characterization of normally pressured regions is essential for field development decisions such as determining the dominant production drive mechanisms, evaluating well placement and drainage patterns, and deciding on well stimulation methods such as hydraulic fracturing. Identification of underpressured regions is essential for evaluating the feasibility of geological sequestration and long-term containment of fluids such as supercritical carbon dioxide for alternative disposal methods of greenhouse gases. This study is the first, quantitative investigation of the regional pressure systems of one of the most important petroleum provinces in the United States. Although this methodology was developed for pressure studies in the Gulf of Mexico basin, it is applicable to any basin worldwide.

  19. A study of satellite-derived moisture with emphasis on the Gulf of Mexico

    Visible-Infrared Spin Scan Radiometer (VISSR) Atmospheric Sounder (VAS) moisture retrievals are compared to the National Meteorological Center Regional Analysis and Forecast System (RAFS) 12-h forecast and to 1200 UTC rawinsondes over the U.S. and the Gulf of Mexico on a daily basis for nearly 1.5 years. The principal objective is to determine what information the current moisture retrievals add to that available from the RAFS and surface data. The data are examined from the climatological perspective, that is, total precipitable water over the seasons for three geographical regions, and also for synoptic applications, that is, vertical and horizontal resolution. VAS retrievals are found to be systematically too moist at higher values. The variance of the VAS soundings more closely agrees with the rawinsonde at locations around the Gulf of Mexico than the RAFS. An examination of a case (6 June 1989) over the Gulf of Mexico region comparing three layers of VAS-derived moisture to the RAFS forecast shows the former capable of outperforming the latter in both the horizontal and, to some extent, the vertical frame of reference.

  20. Pre-breakup geology of the Gulf of Mexico-Caribbean: Its relation to Triassic and Jurassic rift systems of the region

    DOE Office of Scientific and Technical Information (OSTI.GOV)

    Bartok, P.

    1993-02-01

    A review of the pre-breakup geology of west-central Pangea, comprised of northern South America, Gulf of Mexico and West Africa, combined with a study of the Mesozoic rift trends of the region confirms a relation between the rift systems and the underlying older grain of deformation. The pre-breakup analysis focuses attention on the Precambrian, Early Paleozoic and Late Paleozoic tectonic events affecting the region and assumes a Pindell fit. Two Late Precambrian orogenic belts are observed in the west central Pangea. Along the northern South American margin and Yucatan a paleo northeast trending Pan-African aged fold belt is documented. Amore » second system is observed along West Africa extending from the High Atlas to the Mauritanides and Rockelides. During the Late Paleozoic, renewed orogenic activity, associated with the Gondwana/Laurentia suture, affected large segments of west central Pangea. The general trend of the system is northeast-southwest and essentially parallels the Gyayana Shield, West African, and eastern North American cratons. Mesozoic rifting closely followed either the Precambrian trends or the Late Paleozoic orogenic belt. The Triassic component focuses along the western portions of the Gulf of Mexico continuing into eastern Mexico and western South America. The Jurassic rift trend followed along the separation between Yucatan and northern South America. At Lake Maracaibo the Jurassic rift system eventually overlaps the Triassic rifts. The Jurassic rift resulted in the [open quotes]Hispanic Corridor[close quotes] that permitted Tethyan and Pacific marine faunas to mix at a time when the Gulf of Mexico underwent continental sedimentation.« less

  2. Cooperative Management of Transboundry Oil and Gas Resources in the Maritime Boundary Region of the Gulf of Mexico

    NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)

    McLaughlin, R. J.

    2007-05-01

    Finding and exploiting oil and gas resources in the ultra-deepwater areas of the Gulf of Mexico is occurring at an accelerated pace. Huge new discoveries have recently been made in a large geological structure known as the Lower Tertiary Wilcox Trend that is located in the U.S.-Mexico Maritime Boundary Region. These discoveries have been projected to boost current U.S. oil reserves by as much as fifty percent. Technological advancements and market conditions have finally reached a point where production of hydrocarbons in these ultra-deepwaters is commercially feasible. However, due to the transboundary characteristics of many of these hydrocarbons, some form of bi-national cooperation is necessary to effectively manage the shared resources, protect the oceanic environment and comply with evolving norms of international law before commercial production can begin. Well established international customary norms prohibit unilateral exploitation of transboundary oil and gas resources. Consequently, it is important for the two nations to address these issues today rather than putting them off until they become a critical political problem in their bilateral relations. The United States and Mexico have already agreed to temporarily cooperate in the exploration of potential oil and gas resources in one portion of the Gulf of Mexico known as the Western Gap. This is an area in the center of the Gulf of Mexico that falls outside of the 200 mile exclusive economic zones of the two nations. After scientific studies provided evidence that the Western Gap qualifies as part of each nation's extended continental shelf, a Delimitation Treaty was negotiated and ratified in 2000. This Treaty gave Mexico access to about 62 percent of the Gap, while the U.S. retained about 38 percent. The Treaty also established a 2.8 nautical mile buffer zone along the new boundary to account for the possibility that straddling oil and gas reservoirs may be located there. The nations agreed to a ten

    Marine debris is a widespread and globally recognized problem. Sound information is necessary to understand the extent of the problem and to inform resource managers and policy makers about potential mitigation strategies. Although there are many short-term studies on marine debris, a longer-term perspective and the ability to compare among regions has heretofore been missing in the U.S. Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico. We used data from a national beach monitoring program to evaluate and compare amounts, composition, and trends of indicator marine debris in the U.S. Caribbean (Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands) and the Gulf of Mexico from 1996 to 2003. Indicator items provided a standardized set that all surveys collected; each was assigned a probable source: ocean-based, land-based, or general-source. Probable ocean-based debris was related to activities such as recreational boating/fishing, commercial fishing and activities on oil/gas platforms. Probable land-based debris was related to land-based recreation and sewer systems. General-source debris represented plastic items that can come from either ocean- or land-based sources; these items were plastic bags, strapping bands, and plastic bottles (excluding motor oil containers). Debris loads were similar between the U.S. Caribbean and the western Gulf of Mexico; however, debris composition on U.S. Caribbean beaches was dominated by land-based indicators while the western Gulf of Mexico was dominated by ocean-based indicators. Beaches along the eastern Gulf of Mexico had the lowest counts of debris; composition was dominated by land-based indicators, similar to that found for the U.S. Caribbean. Debris loads on beaches in the Gulf of Mexico are likely affected by Gulf circulation patterns, reducing loads in the eastern Gulf and increasing loads in the western Gulf. Over the seven years of monitoring, we found a large linear decrease in total indicator debris, as well as all source categories, for the U

  4. Deep Seismic Structure of the Texas-Gulf of Mexico Passive Margin

    The Texas-Gulf of Mexico region has witnessed a wide range of tectonic processes, including deformation due to orogeny, continental collision and rifting. Artifacts of these processes are likely to remain at lithospheric depths beneath the region but, until recently, the tools needed to examine structures at mantle depths were not available. With the passage of the EarthScope's USArray stations and the completion of a targeted broadband deployment, new images of the region's lithosphere have emerged. These images reveal lithospheric-scale anomalies that correlate strongly with surface features, such as a large fast anomaly that corresponds to the southern extent of the Laurentia (or 'Great Plains') craton and a large slow anomaly associated with the Southern Oklahoma Aulacogen. Other features that would not have been expected based on surface tectonics include a slow layer that we interpret to be a shear zone at the base of the cratonic root and the transitional continental lithosphere, and a zone that is bounded at its top and bottom by discontinuities and high levels of seismic anisotropy. Additionally a high velocity body underlying the Gulf Coast Plains may mark delaminating lower crust. If true it provides indirect evidence that active rifting best describes the process that led to the opening of the Gulf of Mexico. These new results are based upon the analysis of 326 USArray broadband seismic stations and a 23-station broadband deployment across Texas' passive margin, from Matagorda Island, a barrier island in the Gulf of Mexico, to Johnson City, TX, on the relatively undisturbed Proterozoic crust of central Texas.

    Corporate, government, and university researchers collaborated to develop an atmospheric boundary layer environmental observations program on an offshore platform in the Gulf of Mexico. The primary goals of this project were to provide data to (1) improve our understanding of boundary layer processes and air-sea interaction over the Gulf of Mexico; (2) improve regional-scale meteorological and air quality modeling; and (3) provide a framework for advanced offshore measurements to support future needs such as emergency response, exploration and lease decisions, wind energy research and development, and meteorological and air quality forecasting. In October 2010, meteorological and oceanographic sensors were deployed for an extended period (approximately 12 months) on a Chevron service platform (ST 52B, 90.5W, 29N) to collect boundary layer and sea surface data sufficient to support these objectives. This project has significant importance given the large industrial presence in the Gulf, sizeable regional population nearby, and the recognized need for precise and timely pollutant forecasts. Observations from this project include surface meteorology; sodar marine boundary layer winds; microwave radiometer profiles of temperature, relative humidity, and liquid water; ceilometer cloud base heights; water temperature and current profiles; sea surface temperature; wave height statistics; downwelling solar and infrared radiation; and air-sea turbulent momentum and heat fluxes. This project resulted in the collection of an unprecedented set of boundary layer measurements over the Gulf of Mexico that capture the range of meteorological and oceanographic interactions and processes that occur over an entire year. This presentation will provide insight into the logistical and scientific issues associated with the deployment and operations of unique measurements in offshore areas and provide results from an initial data analysis of boundary layer processes over the Gulf of

    Concentrations of seven metals (As, Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb, Ni, and Zn) were analyzed in 33 bone tissue samples of Antillean manatees (Trichechus manatus manatus) found dead in lagoons and rivers of Tabasco and Campeche in the Gulf of Mexico and Chetumal Bay in the Caribbean region. The concentrations of Cr, Cu, Pb, and Zn were significantly different between regions, with greater levels found in the Gulf of Mexico group than in the Mexican Caribbean group (p < 0.05). Pb concentrations differed significantly between adults and calves. No differences were observed between sexes. Metal concentrations detected in the manatee bones were higher than most of those reported for bones in other marine mammals around the world. Future studies are necessary to establish whether the metal concentrations represent a risk to the health of the species.

  13. Benthic amphipods (Amphipoda: Gammaridea and Corophiidea) from the Mexican southeast sector of the Gulf of Mexico: checklist, new records and zoogeographic comments.

    PubMed

    Paz-Ríos, Carlos E; Ardisson, Pedro-Luis

    2013-01-01

    The southeast region of the Gulf of Mexico is considered to be biologically important, because it is a connection and transition zone between the Caribbean and the Gulf of Mexico, harboring great marine biodiversity. Nevertheless, benthic amphipods have been poorly studied in the Mexican southeast sector of the Gulf of Mexico with few studies listing species. The aim of this study is to provide an update checklist of species for the Mexican southeast sector (based on literature review and records from the present study) as well as a brief zoogeographical analysis for the Gulf of Mexico amphipod fauna, putting them in context with the fauna on the tropical western Atlantic. Fifty-five species were listed for the Mexican southeast sector; 36 of them showed a geographical extension to the Yucatan continental shelf representing 23 new records for the Mexican southeast sector, nine for the southeast region and four for the Gulf of Mexico. Based on the zoogeographical analysis, there is support of the application of Carolinian and Caribbean zoogeographic provinces to amphipods in the Gulf of Mexico.

    Global climate change is important in considerations of integrated coastal management in the Gulf of Mexico. This is true for a number of reasons. Climate in the Gulf spans the range from tropical to the lower part of the temperate zone. Thus, as climate warms, the tropical temperate interface, which is currently mostly offshore in the Gulf of Mexico, will increasingly move over the coastal zone of the northern and eastern parts of the Gulf. Currently, this interface is located in South Florida and around the US-Mexico border in the Texas-Tamaulipas region. Maintaining healthy coastal ecosystems is important because they will be more resistant to climate change.

  4. Impact of iodine chemistry on coastal ozone levels at the Gulf of Mexico

    2016-12-01

    Reactive iodine (Ix = I + IO) is known to destroy ozone through catalytic cycles in the marine boundary layer (MBL) and can thus have a significant impact on tropospheric ozone in coastal regions. As air quality standards for ozone become stricter, accurate background levels are increasingly important for the development of ozone reduction strategies. The Texas Gulf coast is an example for the significance of MBL background ozone, as onshore flows from the Gulf of Mexico contribute to the ozone levels in Houston and other coastal areas. The Gulf coast often experiences ozone mixing ratios below 20 ppb during summer onshore flow conditions, which are currently overestimated by regional and global air quality models. Modeling with the Comprehensive Air quality Model with extensions (CAMx) and GEOS-Chem including halogen chemistry identified iodine emissions from the Gulf of Mexico as a possible explanation. However, ambient measurements of Ix species for the Gulf of Mexico are needed to test this hypothesis and, if confirmed, refine models. We measured IO, O3, and other trace gases at the Gulf coast near Galveston, TX, using UCLA's long path DOAS instrument and a suite of in-situ instruments. During the study period from May 15 through July 12, 2016, several multi-day events with MBL ozone levels below 20 ppb were encountered. Here we present the observational data with a focus on time periods with onshore flow from the Gulf. A chemical steady state analysis will be used to assess whether the observed Ix mixing ratios can explain these low ozone mixing ratios. Our results will be compared to the CAMx and GEOS-Chem model simulations.

  6. Proposed Gulf of Mexico Intensive Study on Carbon Fluxes

    NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)

    Coble, P. G.; Robbins, L.; Lohrenz, S.; Cai, W.

    2009-05-01

    The Gulf of Mexico is an ideal site for the study of land-ocean carbon cycle coupling processes. A recent synthesis suggests that Gulf of Mexico air-sea CO2 flux may dominate the net flux of the entire North American margin because of the Gulf's large size and strong carbon signals. Northern Gulf waters appear to be a strong local CO2 sink due to high primary productivity stimulated by river input of anthropogenic nutrients from the North American continent. Nutrient discharge from the Mississippi River has been implicated in widespread hypoxia on the shelf. The surface drainage system of the Gulf covers more than 60% of the U.S. and more than 40% of Mexico; thus, large-scale changes in land-use and water-management practices in both countries, as well as changes in temperature and rainfall due to climate change, will profoundly affect Gulf carbon fluxes. Nevertheless, major sources of uncertainty in the North American carbon budget remain because of largely unsampled areas, undocumented key fluxes, such as air-sea exchange of carbon dioxide, associated carbon fluxes, and poorly characterized control mechanisms. An intensive study in which the Gulf is considered as a whole system, including watersheds, margins, open Gulf of Mexico, overlying atmosphere, and underlying sediments, will be discussed. The study is best addressed using a three-pronged approach that incorporates remote sensing observations, field observations and experiments, and physical and biogeochemical modeling. Societal issues related to carbon management and land-use/land-change must be an integral part of such a study. International cooperation with Mexico, Canada, and Cuba will be essential for the success of this study.

    The statistical distribution of over 12,000 producible hydrocarbon reservoirs from various biostratigraphic intervals of the Gulf of Mexico is presented. The average number, thickness, volume, subsurface depth, and ecozone of depositional environments of the reservoirs are grouped according to biostratigraphic intervals, trends, and geographic areas. The upper Pliocene and Pleistocene reservoirs account for more than 77% of the total number. Within the Miocene trend, Bigenerina H in the western Gulf and Bigenerina A and Bigenerina 2 in the central Gulf show significant concentration of reservoirs. The average depth of production for all trends gets deeper, both from west and east,more » toward Ship Shoal-South Timbalier areas. The average thickness varies slightly between trends; however, variation between areas is more significant. A significant majority of the reservoirs of all trends in the entire Gulf is reported from the outer shelf-upper slope ecozones (E3 and E4). According to volume, the E3-E5 reservoirs can be classified into three groups; (a) larger than 10,000 acre-ft/reservoir, (b) 5000 to 10,000 acre-ft/reservoir, and (c) smaller than 5000 acre-ft/reservoir. The reservoirs of the middle Miocene trend of the central Gulf and lower Miocene of the western Gulf fall into group a, those of other trends of the western Gulf into group b, and the post-Amphistegina E reservoirs of the central Gulf into group c. Information obtained from this study, in combination with regional and detailed geological information, provides valuable input in further exploration of the matured shelf and scantily explored slope of the Gulf of Mexico.« less

    Blooms of the toxic marine dinoflagellate Karenia brevis cause massive fish kills and other public health and economic problems in coastal waters throughout the Gulf of Mexico [Steidinger, 2009]. These harmful algal blooms (HABs) are a gulf-wide problem that require a synoptic observing system for better serving decision-making needs. The major nutrient sources that initiate and maintain these HABs and the possible connectivity of blooms in different locations are important questions being addressed through new collaborations between Mexican and U.S. researchers and government institutions. These efforts were originally organized under the U.S./Mexico binational partnership for the HABs Observing System (HABSOS), led by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's Gulf of Mexico Program (EPAGMP) and several agencies in Veracruz, Mexico, since 2006. In 2010 these efforts were expanded to include other Mexican states and institutions with the integrated assessment and management of the Gulf of Mexico Large Marine Ecosystem (GoMLME) program sponsored by the Global Environment Facility (GEF), the United Nations Industrial Development Organization (UNIDO), the Secretaría de Medio Ambiente y Recursos Naturales (SEMARNAT), and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

  3. Sargassum-associated mobile fauna communities in the Caribbean, Gulf of Mexico, and Sargasso Sea

    NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)

    2016-02-01

    Sargassum natans and S. fluitans are entirely pelagic, offering a pseudo-benthic structural habitat for an associated community of mobile fauna. In turn, the mobile fauna community supports foraging seabirds, fish, and turtles. Recent satellite observations suggest Sargassum in the Sargasso Sea is seeded annually from the Gulf of Mexico. Furthermore, the Caribbean is in the midst of a Sargassum inundation that appears disconnected in origin from the Sargasso Sea and Gulf of Mexico. Sargassum and fauna were collected via dip net during spring and summer 2015 from the Gulf of Mexico, Sargasso Sea and Eastern Caribbean to study the impacts that region, aggregation pattern (isolated clump, windrow, mat), and Sargassum variety morphology have on mobile fauna community composition. Sargassum from all three regions shared five common (frequency >10%) species: flatworm spp., Portunus sayi, Litiopa melanostoma, Leander tenuicornis, and Latreutes fucorum). The Gulf presented the most unique species (9 unique / 16 total) followed by the Sargasso Sea (5 unique / 12 total) and the Caribbean (1 unique / 6 total). The majority of species unique to the Gulf of Mexico were juvenile fish while those in the Caribbean and Sargasso Sea were benthic-like species residing on the Sargassum itself. Differences in the morphological forms of Sargassum had a marked effect on fauna diversity and abundance. In all three regions, fewer individuals and species were found on the broad-leafed, less compact S. natans VIII than on the denser S. natans I and S. fluitans III. This study identifies the differences in macrofauna abundance and diversity between varieties of Sargassum and highlights the potential for dramatic community changes that could result from largescale Sargassum blooms and species shifts. Any shift in these keystone communities could result in negative cascading effects on seabirds, economically important fish populations, and juvenile turtles which use the seaweed as a nursery

  2. The Gulf of Mexico research initiative: It takes a village

    2016-07-01

    The Gulf of Mexico Research Initiative (GoMRI) was established at the time of one of the most significant ecological events in recent memory, the Deepwater Horizon oil spill. Defined by the discharge of over 150 million gallons of crude oil and the introduction of over 1.8 million gallons of chemical dispersants into the Gulf system, the impacts of the Deepwater Horizon disaster reached the Gulf Coast's wetlands and beaches and impacted the surface and deep ocean. The ecological story of the event reveals a strong linkage between the deep sea research community and research priorities in the Gulf of Mexico (coastal processes, human health, etc.). Deep Sea research efforts have revealed critical parts of the story, providing information on transport, fate, and effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil release and subsequent recovery of the Gulf of Mexico ecosystems.

  5. On the Loop Current Penetration into the Gulf of Mexico

    NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)

    2017-12-01

    The Gulf of Mexico Loop Current generally intrudes some distance into the Gulf of Mexico before shedding an anticyclonic eddy and retreating back to its more direct entry to exit pathway. The control of this aperiodic process remains only partially known. Here we describe the evolution of the Loop Current throughout the era of satellite altimetry, and offer a mechanistic hypothesis on Loop Current intrusion. As a complement to the known effects of Loop Current forcing on the west Florida shelf circulation, we argue that the west Florida shelf, in turn, impacts the Loop Current evolution. A Self-Organizing Map analysis shows that anomalous northward penetrations of the Loop Current into the Gulf of Mexico occur when the eastern side of Loop Current is positioned west from the southwest corner of the west Florida shelf, whereas the more direct inflow to outflow route occurs when the eastern side of the Loop Current comes in contact with the southwest corner of the west Florida shelf. In essence, we argue that the west Florida shelf anchors the Loop Current in its direct path configuration and that farther northward penetration into the Gulf of Mexico occurs when such anchoring is released. To test of this hypothesis heuristically, we estimate that the dissipation and buoyancy work due to known Loop Current forcing of the west Florida shelf circulation (when in contact with the southwest corner) may exceed the pressure work required for the Loop Current to advance against the ambient Gulf of Mexico fluid.Plain Language SummaryThe <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Loop Current may intrude far into the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> or take a more direct entry to exit pathway.

The CVI ranks the following in terms <span class="hlt">of</span> their physical contribution to sea-level rise-related coastal change: geomorphology, <span class="hlt">regional</span> coastal slope, rate <span class="hlt">of</span> relative sea-level rise, historical shoreline change rate, mean tidal range, and mean significant wave height. The rankings for each variable are combined and an index value is calculated for 1-kilometer grid cells along the coast. The CVI highlights those <span class="hlt">regions</span> where the physical effects <span class="hlt">of</span> sea-level rise might be the greatest. The CVI assessment presented here builds on an earlier assessment conducted for the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. Recent higher resolution shoreline change, land loss, elevation, and subsidence data provide the foundation for a better assessment for the Northern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>.

PCR-positive results have recently been reported for Haplosporidium nelsoni (MSX), a pathogen <span class="hlt">of</span> the oyster Crassostrea virginica in 31 <span class="hlt">of</span> 40 oysters from 6 sites in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> and the Caribbean Sea.

None <span class="hlt">of</span> the oysters showed evidence <span class="hlt">of</span> H. nelsoni by PCR or <span class="hlt">of</span> any haplosporidian by histology.

Existing literature and preliminary data from fieldwork, sandstone petrology and detrital zircon analysis reveal how major drainages in <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> changed from Late Triassic through Late Jurassic time and offer predictions for the ultimate destinations <span class="hlt">of</span> sand-rich detritus along the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> and paleo-Pacific margins. Late Triassic rivers drained away from and across the present site <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>, which was then the location <span class="hlt">of</span> a major thermal dome, the Texas uplift <span class="hlt">of</span> recent literature. These high-discharge rivers with relatively mature sediment composition fed a large-volume submarine fan system on the paleo-Pacific continental margin <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. Predictably, detrital zircon age populations are diverse and record sources as far away as the Amazonian craton. This enormous fluvial system was cut off abruptly near the Triassic-Jurassic boundary by extensive reorganization <span class="hlt">of</span> continental drainages. Early and Middle Jurassic drainage systems had local headwaters and deposited sediment in extensional basins associated with arc magmatism. Redbeds accumulated across northern and eastern <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> and Chiapas in long, narrow basins whose locations and dimensions are recorded primarily by inverted antiformal massifs. The Jurassic continental successions overlie Upper Triassic strata and local subvolcanic plutons; they contain interbedded volcanic rocks and thus have been interpreted as part <span class="hlt">of</span> the Nazas continental-margin arc. The detritus <span class="hlt">of</span> these fluvial systems is volcanic-lithic; syndepositional grain ages are common in the detrital zircon populations, which are mixed with Oaxaquia-derived Permo-Triassic and Grenville age populations.

Moreover, it is a powerful radical and ozone precursor. The 2009 Study <span class="hlt">of</span> Houston Atmospheric Radical Precursors (SHARP) was conceived by the Houston Advanced Research Center (HARC) on behalf <span class="hlt">of</span> the Texas Environmental Research Consortium (TERC) to examine the relative importance <span class="hlt">of</span> primary and secondary formaldehyde (HCHO) and nitrous acid (HONO) in ozone formation.

Run-up distance and run-up height can be used as parameters for assessing this influence. To calculate these parameters, we are using a multi-material hydrocode (SALE) to simulate the generation <span class="hlt">of</span> the tsunami wave, a non-linear shallow water approach for the propagation, and we implemented a special open boundary for considering the run-up <span class="hlt">of</span> tsunami waves.

The hypoxic zone, an area <span class="hlt">of</span> low dissolved oxygen that cannot support marine life, generally manifests itself in the spring. Since marine species either die or flee the hypoxic zone, the spread <span class="hlt">of</span> hypoxia reduces the available habitat for marine species, which are important for the ecosystem as well as commercial and recreational fishing in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>. Since 2001, the hypoxic zone has averaged 16,500 km{sup 2} during its peak summer months, an area slightly larger than the state <span class="hlt">of</span> Connecticut, and ranged frommore » a low <span class="hlt">of</span> 8,500 km{sup 2} to a high <span class="hlt">of</span> 22,000 km{sup 2}. To address the hypoxia problem, the Mississippi River/<span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Watershed Nutrient Task Force (or Task Force) was formed to bring together representatives from federal agencies, states, and tribes to consider options for responding to hypoxia. The Task Force asked the White House Office <span class="hlt">of</span> Science and Technology Policy to conduct a scientific assessment <span class="hlt">of</span> the causes and consequences <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> hypoxia through its Committee on Environment and Natural Resources (CENR). In 2000 the CENR completed An Integrated Assessment: Hypoxia in the Northern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> (or Integrated Assessment), which formed the scientific basis for the Task Force's Action Plan for Reducing, Mitigating, and Controlling Hypoxia in the Northern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> (Action Plan, 2001). In its Action Plan, the Task Force pledged to implement ten management actions and to assess progress every 5 years. This reassessment would address the nutrient load reductions achieved, the responses <span class="hlt">of</span> the hypoxic zone and associated water quality and habitat conditions, and economic and social effects. The Task Force began its reassessment in 2005. In 2006 as part <span class="hlt">of</span> the reassessment, USEPA's Office <span class="hlt">of</span> Water, on behalf <span class="hlt">of</span> the Task Force, requested that the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA) Science Advisory Board (SAB) convene an independent</p> </li> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('http://www.ars.usda.gov/research/publications/publication/?seqNo115=308843','TEKTRAN'); return false;" href="http://www.ars.usda.gov/research/publications/publication/?seqNo115=308843"><span>Reducing hypoxia in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> – an alternative approach</span></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="https://www.ars.usda.gov/research/publications/find-a-publication/">USDA-ARS?s Scientific Manuscript database</a></p> <p></p> <p></p> <p>Hypoxia in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> is a high-priority national issue.

Seagrass beds, which are highly dependent on water quality and clarity for survival, are home to a multitude <span class="hlt">of</span> aquatic plants and animals and a source <span class="hlt">of</span> economic activity through commercial and recreational fishing and ecotourism. The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Program (GMP) and its partners have made a commitment to restore, enhance, and protect this important ecosystem.

Surface current velocities derived from these remotely sensed data are compared with surface velocities from drifting buoys. The comparison shows that satellite altimetry does an excellent job resolving <span class="hlt">gulf</span> eddies over the shelf rise (depths between ˜200 and 2000 m) if the proper length scale is used. Correlations between altimeter- and drifter-derived velocities are statistically significant (r>0.5) when the surface slope is computed over 125 km, indicating that remotely sensed sea surface height anomaly data can be used to aid the understanding <span class="hlt">of</span> circulation over the shelf rise.

These are the same locations where surface drifters are most likely to cross the shelf rise, suggesting <span class="hlt">gulf</span> eddies promote cross-shore flows.

Finally, the contribution <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">gulf</span> eddies and wind stress to changes in the mean circulation are compared.

Thus, we performed a combined morphological and molecular analysis to identify Siderastrea species boundaries from the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. Some colonies presented high morphologic variability, with characteristics that corresponded to Siderastrea stellata. Molecular analysis, using the nuclear ITS and ITS2 <span class="hlt">region</span>, corroborated the morphological results, revealing low genetic variability between S. radians and S. stellata.

The sole complexity in the passive margin phase <span class="hlt">of</span> this sub-<span class="hlt">region</span> is the acceleration <span class="hlt">of</span> prograding clastic margins including the Mississippi fan in Miocene time; 2) Southeastern GOM in the Straits <span class="hlt">of</span> Florida and Cuba area (5 wells) - this area shows that the Cretaceous passive margin overlying the rift phase is abruptly drowned in late Cretaceous as this part <span class="hlt">of</span> the passive margin <span class="hlt">of</span> North America that is flexed and partially subducted beneath the Caribbean arc as it encroaches from the southwest to eventually collide with the North American passive margin in the Paleogene; 3) Western GOM along the length <span class="hlt">of</span> the eastern continental margin <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> (12 wells) - this is the most complex <span class="hlt">of</span> the three areas in that shares the Mesozic rifting and passive margin phase but is unique with a slightly younger collisional event and foreland basin phase associated with the Laramide orogeny in <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> extending from the KT boundary to the Oligocene. Following this orogenic event there is a re-emergence <span class="hlt">of</span> the passive margin phase during the Neogene along locally affected by extensional and convergent deformation associated with passive margin fold belts.

W.; Pulliam, J.; Gurrola, H.</p> <p>2012-12-01</p> <p>The lithosphere <span class="hlt">of</span> central and east Texas underwent two cycles <span class="hlt">of</span> continental rifting and orogeny from the formation <span class="hlt">of</span> Laurentia and assembly through the breakup <span class="hlt">of</span> Pangea. The craton itself, exposed in the Llano uplift <span class="hlt">of</span> central Texas, formed ~1.4 Ga as part <span class="hlt">of</span> the great expanse <span class="hlt">of</span> Mesoproterozoic crust that makes up southern Laurentia. Some <span class="hlt">of</span> this crust was deformed during the Grenville orogeny ~1.1 Ga. Southern Laurentia was subsequently stable until rifting began in Cambrian time (~530 Ma). Suturing <span class="hlt">of</span> Gondwana to Laurentia (310-290 Ma) during the assembly <span class="hlt">of</span> Pangea formed the Ouachita orogen in west Texas. Sometime before 200 Ma rifting was initiated, opening the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> (GoM). In north and east Texas the Ouachita front lies north <span class="hlt">of</span> GoM rifting but, according to deep seismic data, Ouachita structures appear to coincide with GoM rifting in south and central Texas. This suggests that rifting in that <span class="hlt">region</span> occurred along structures that were weakened previously by Ouachita deformation and reactivated during the Jurassic opening <span class="hlt">of</span> the GoM. It is not clear whether the process that created the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> and led to the formation <span class="hlt">of</span> Texas' <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Coast Plain (GCP) is best described as "active" or "passive" rifting. A recent study interpreted the GCP to be a volcanic rifted margin—an active rifting process—using available gravity, magnetic, drilling and geological data, but older studies describe the opening <span class="hlt">of</span> the GoM as a passive event. In the coastal plain, a large magnetic anomaly suggests that the crust here was modified by volcanism. Seismic data are sparse and <span class="hlt">of</span> limited quality in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Coast <span class="hlt">region</span> so we conducted a 2.5-year broadband seismograph transect across the GCP in an effort to clarify its structure and origin.

Companies participating in Outer Continental Shelf Sale 139 last week in New Orleans offered 196 bids for 151 blocks in the central <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. MMS offered 5,213 blocks for lease. The number <span class="hlt">of</span> tracts receiving bids was the fewest at a central <span class="hlt">gulf</span> lease sale since 114 tracts garnered high bids totaling $146.4 million at Sale 104 in April 1986. Apparent high bids in Sale 139 totaled $56,195,552, and all bids offered totaledmore » just $65,300,864. Both bidding totals were the lowest in a <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> lease sale since MMS began area-wide <span class="hlt">gulf</span> leasing at Sale 72 in May 1983.

By comparison, 123 companies at central <span class="hlt">gulf</span> lease Sale 131 in March 1991 offered 637 bids totaling $320.5 million for 464 tracts. Apparent high bids last spring totaled $259.9 million. At central <span class="hlt">gulf</span> lease Sale 123 in March 1990, high bids totaled $427.4 million for 538 tracts. In that sale, BP Exploration Inc. led all bidders, exposing $78 million in 79 high bids, including 60 for deepwater tracts. Since then, interest in deepwater tracts has waned in part because <span class="hlt">of</span> sagging oil and gas prices as U.S. operators sought bigger prospects outside the U.S. Ironically, Sale 139 was dominated by the U.S. subsidiary <span class="hlt">of</span> an Italian holding company.« less</p> </li> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2014AGUFMOS51B0963Y','NASAADS'); return false;" href="http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2014AGUFMOS51B0963Y"><span>Inorganic Carbon and pH in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>: Understanding the Deepwater Horizon <span class="hlt">Region</span></span></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html">NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)</a></p> <p>Young, J.; Yvon-Lewis, S.

Samples <span class="hlt">of</span> seawater were collected on the first GISR (<span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Integrated Spill Research) cruise (G01) during the first week <span class="hlt">of</span> July 2012. This cruise covered an area <span class="hlt">of</span> ~1360 km2 roughly centered on the site <span class="hlt">of</span> the Deepwater Horizon disaster. Alkalinity profiles for the southeastern most stations indicate lower (~100 μmol/kg) alkalinities at depth when compared to other stations sampled. This results in calculated pHs that are ~0.5 units lower at depth than they are at the other stations. Another group <span class="hlt">of</span> stations show increased DIC concentrations on the order <span class="hlt">of</span> 100-150 μmol/kg higher than average at depths at 800 m and 1200 m leading to calculated pHs about 0.2 to 0.4 below average for those depths in all <span class="hlt">of</span> the stations sampled. These features may or may not be persistent in this <span class="hlt">region</span>, and the elevated DIC concentrations may be related to organic matter (petroleum or other) oxidation. Samples were collected from this same <span class="hlt">region</span> 2 years later (June 2014) and the persistence <span class="hlt">of</span> these features will be discussed in the context <span class="hlt">of</span> linkages with organic carbon respiration and low pHs.</p> </li> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('http://hdl.handle.net/2060/19940012269','NASA-TRS'); return false;" href="http://hdl.handle.net/2060/19940012269"><span>SAR observations in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span></span></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.jsp">NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)</a></p> <p>Sheres, David</p> <p>1992-01-01</p> <p>The <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> (GOM) exhibits a wealth <span class="hlt">of</span> energetic ocean features; they include the Loop Current with velocities <span class="hlt">of</span> about 2 m/s and strong shear fronts, mesoscale eddies, double vortices, internal waves, and the outflow <span class="hlt">of</span> the 'Mighty Mississippi' river.

Critical to all <span class="hlt">of</span> these sectors is the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>'s circulation—it controls hurricane tracks and intensity, biological productivity, and larvae dispersal. Since 1982, the Environmental Studies Program (ESP) <span class="hlt">of</span> the U.S. Bureau <span class="hlt">of</span> Ocean Energy Management, Regulation and Enforcement (BOEMRE) has invested more than $67 million in field and numerical modeling studies to improve our understanding <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>'s circulation (see Figure 1). ESP-funded research has covered a broad array <span class="hlt">of</span> topics, some applied and some basic. Studies carried out on behalf <span class="hlt">of</span> the bureau reflect the bureau's information needs, stakeholder input, and offshore energy exploration and development trends. All ESP studies culminate in a technical report—127 technical reports on physical oceanography are publicly available (see http://www.gomr.boemre.gov/homepg/regulate/environ/techsumm/rec_pubs.html). Additionally, more than 100 peer-reviewed publications have been issued on the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>'s physical oceanography and circulation. The AGU Geophysical Monograph Circulation in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>: Observations and Models, the very first circulation overview since 1972, was funded by ESP.

Our mission is to ensure a data and information legacy that promotes continual scientific discovery and public awareness <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> ecosystem. GRIIDC developed an open-source software solution to manage data from the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Research Initiative (GoMRI). The GoMRI program has over 2500 researchers from diverse fields <span class="hlt">of</span> study with a variety <span class="hlt">of</span> attitudes, experiences, and capacities for data sharing. The success <span class="hlt">of</span> this solution is apparent through new partnerships to share data generated by RESTORE Act Centers <span class="hlt">of</span> Excellence Programs, the National Academies <span class="hlt">of</span> Science, and others. The GRIIDC data management system integrates dataset management planning, metadata creation, persistent identification, and data discoverability into an easy-to-use web application. No specialized software or program installations are required to support dataset submission or discovery. Furthermore, no data transformations are needed to submit data to GRIIDC; common file formats such as Excel, csv, and text are all acceptable for submissions. To ensure data are properly documented using the GRIIDC implementation <span class="hlt">of</span> the ISO 19115-2 metadata standard, researchers submit detailed descriptive information through a series <span class="hlt">of</span> interactive forms and no knowledge <span class="hlt">of</span> metadata or xml formats are required. Once a dataset is documented and submitted the GRIIDC team performs a review <span class="hlt">of</span> the dataset package. This review ensures that files can be opened and contain data, and that data are completely and accurately described. This review does not include performing quality assurance or control <span class="hlt">of</span> data points, as GRIIDC expects scientists to perform these steps during the course <span class="hlt">of</span> their work.

Exploration is needed to extend knowledge <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> chemosynthetic ecosystem in the zones anticipated to receive energy exploration and production activities over the coming decades. A nested survey approach can be used to identify representative sampling sites within this vast offshore area. Potential sites where chemosynthetic community could occur are selected on the basis geophysical, geochemical, and satellite remote-sensing indicators. Photo-reconnaissance using cost-effective camera systems is then used to confirm the presences or absence <span class="hlt">of</span> chemosynthetic communities at high-probability sites. Follow-up sampling can then proceed with submersibles or ROVs to acquire tissue and or geochemical samples. However, because access is limited, submersible dives may not be possible at all sites. Two examples <span class="hlt">of</span> this approach have recently been applied in the northern and southern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>, respectively. We compared community characterizations obtained from the initial reconnaissance with more detailed characterizations forthcoming from submersible sampling. Our results show that major differences in community type and geochemical substrata are evident from preliminary reconnaissance, while details <span class="hlt">of</span> animal densities and species compositions require targeted sampling with submersibles. However, given the limited access to submersibles, cost-effective surveys with deep-sea camera systems would greatly expand understanding <span class="hlt">of</span> the zoogeography <span class="hlt">of</span> chemosynthetic fauna in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> and Caribbean Sea.</p> </li> </ol> <div class="pull-right"> <ul class="pagination"> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_1");'>«</a></li> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_10");'>10</a></li> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_11");'>11</a></li> <li class="active"><span>12</span></li> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_13");'>13</a></li> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_14");'>14</a></li> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_25");'>»</a></li> </ul> </div> </div><!-- col-sm-12 --> </div><!-- row --> </div><!-- page_12 --> <div id="page_13" class="hiddenDiv"> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-12"> <div class="pull-right"> <ul class="pagination"> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_1");'>«</a></li> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_11");'>11</a></li> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_12");'>12</a></li> <li class="active"><span>13</span></li> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_14");'>14</a></li> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_15");'>15</a></li> <li><a href="#" onclick='return showDiv("page_25");'>»</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="col-sm-12"> <ol class="result-class" start="241"> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2017AGUFMGC21I..01R','NASAADS'); return false;" href="http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2017AGUFMGC21I..01R"><span><span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>: Dealing with Change in a Marginal Sea</span></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html">NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)</a></p> <p>Rabalais, N. N.</p> <p>2017-12-01</p> <p>The <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> is shared by the United States, <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> and Cuba and requires collaborative work for integrated management to conserve its natural assets and derived benefits, as well as to foster the overall <span class="hlt">regional</span> economic wealth. Many rivers drain into the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>, most notably the Mississippi, which ranks among global rivers 4th in discharge, 7th in sediment load and 3rd in drainage area, and accounts for about 90 percent <span class="hlt">of</span> the freshwater inflow to the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>. The Mississippi River proper empties onto a narrow ( 20 km wide) continental shelf, and its tributary, the Atchafalaya River, that carries about one third <span class="hlt">of</span> the total flow discharges onto the broad ( 200 km) and shallow part <span class="hlt">of</span> the shelf. The entrainment <span class="hlt">of</span> the Mississippi River discharge into the Louisiana Coastal Current results in the semblance <span class="hlt">of</span> an extended estuary across much <span class="hlt">of</span> the inner to mid continental shelf for much <span class="hlt">of</span> the year. The nitrogen load from the Mississippi River to the adjacent continental shelf over the last half century has increased by 300 per cent. As a result, eutrophication and hypoxia have developed in this stratified coastal system with implications for biogeochemical cycles and valued resources. While there is recognition that over half <span class="hlt">of</span> the nitrogen sources come from agricultural practices widespread across the watershed, the environmental goal <span class="hlt">of</span> bringing a 32-year average 13,800 square kilometers <span class="hlt">of</span> bottom-water hypoxia to less than 5,000 square kilometers is being realized through voluntary and incentive-based activities, designed within a series <span class="hlt">of</span> subbasin and state strategies. Some activities funded by the US Department <span class="hlt">of</span> Agriculture for directed nutrient reduction projects and several small-scale voluntary actions towards sustainable and ecologically sound agriculture show promise, but large-scale social-political solutions do not exist now nor will they for the forseeable future.

While hurricanes can have catastrophic effects, extreme waves and storm surge from Nortes occur several times a year, and thus have greater impacts on human activities along the Mexican coast <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. Despite the constant impacts from Nortes, there is no available classification that relates their characteristics (e.g. pressure gradients, wind speed), to the associated coastal impacts. This work presents a first approximation to characterize and classify Nortes, which is based on the assumption that the derived wave energy synthetizes information (i.e. wind intensity, direction and duration) <span class="hlt">of</span> individual Norte events as they pass through the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. First, we developed an index to identify Nortes based on surface pressure differences <span class="hlt">of</span> two locations. To validate the methodology we compared the events identified with other studies and available Nortes logs. Afterwards, we detected Nortes from the 1986/1987, 2008/2009 and 2009/2010 seasons and used their corresponding wind fields to derive the wave energy maps using a numerical wave model. We used the energy maps to classify the events into groups using manual (visual) and automatic classifications (principal component analysis and k-means). The manual classification identified 3 types <span class="hlt">of</span> Nortes and the automatic classification identified 5, although 3 <span class="hlt">of</span> them had a high degree <span class="hlt">of</span> similarity. The principal component analysis indicated that all events have similar characteristics, as few components are necessary to explain almost all <span class="hlt">of</span> the variance. The classification from the k-means indicated that 81% <span class="hlt">of</span> analyzed Nortes affect the southeastern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>, while a smaller percentage affects the northern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> and even less affect the western Caribbean.</p> </li> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('https://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.jsp?R=20010071223&hterms=Gulf+cooperation&qs=N%3D0%26Ntk%3DAll%26Ntx%3Dmode%2Bmatchall%26Ntt%3DGulf%2Bcooperation','NASA-TRS'); return false;" href="https://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.jsp?R=20010071223&hterms=Gulf+cooperation&qs=N%3D0%26Ntk%3DAll%26Ntx%3Dmode%2Bmatchall%26Ntt%3DGulf%2Bcooperation"><span><span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Helicopter Offshore System Technologies Recommended Development Path</span></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.jsp">NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)</a></p> <p>Koenke, Edmund J.; Williams, Larry; Calafa, Caesar</p> <p>1999-01-01</p> <p>The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Advanced Air Transportation Technologies (AATT) project in cooperation with the Department <span class="hlt">of</span> Transportation (DOT) Volpe National Transportation Systems Center (VNTSC) contracted with the System Resources Corporation (SRC) for the evaluation <span class="hlt">of</span> the existing environment and the identification <span class="hlt">of</span> user and service provider needs in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> low-altitude Offshore Sector.

Beginning in 2011, more than 120 acoustically tracked RAFOS floats have been released in the eastern, central and western <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>, many in pairs and triplets.

In particular, the first-ever observations <span class="hlt">of</span> deep energetic anticyclonic eddies (possibly lenses) forming at and separating from a northeastward-flowing boundary current west <span class="hlt">of</span> Campeche Bank will be discussed.

A primary mechanism for NOAA-DOI coordination at the <span class="hlt">regional</span> scale is the Landscape Conservation Cooperative (LCC) network, which is supported in part by DOI Climate Science Centers (CSC). Together, the CSCs and LCCs provide a framework to identify landscape-scale science and services priorities for conservation and management. As a key partner <span class="hlt">of</span> the CSCs and an active member <span class="hlt">of</span> many LCCs, NOAA is working to ensure its own <span class="hlt">regional</span> product and service delivery efforts will help address these conservation and management challenges. Two examples <span class="hlt">of</span> NOAA's <span class="hlt">regional</span> efforts are highlighted here, with a focus on the coastal and interior geographies <span class="hlt">of</span> the western <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> where NOAA partners with the South Central CSC and participates as a member <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Coast Prairie LCC.

There are very interesting physical oceanographic features in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>, not the least <span class="hlt">of</span> which are the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Loop Current and the eddies it spawns. Satellite sensing <span class="hlt">of</span> IR and altimeter imagery has been a major input to modeling those features. Such efforts are very important to the economy and well being <span class="hlt">of</span> much <span class="hlt">of</span> the United States and <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>, including fisheries, mineral economies, hurricane strengths and paths in the summer, and severe snow storms in the eastern US in the winter. A major shortcoming <span class="hlt">of</span> the present monitoring <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> is the lack <span class="hlt">of</span> subsurface input to the dynamic models <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>. Acoustic tomography is a viable means <span class="hlt">of</span> providing that missing input. Several universities have come together to investigate the prospects for establishing a <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Eddy Monitoring System (GEMS) for the deep eastern half <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> using acoustic tomography. The group has conducted several acoustics experiments and propagation studies to determine the feasibility <span class="hlt">of</span> long-range propagation in the eastern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> and the mitigation <span class="hlt">of</span> adverse effects on marine mammal populations in that <span class="hlt">region</span> under the Office <span class="hlt">of</span> Naval Research project entitled the Littoral Acoustic Demonstration Center (LADC). The group has also convened an invited session for the 9th World Multiconference on Systemics, Cybernetics and Informatics (WMSCI 2005) Orlando, FL, July 2005.

Two vessels were employed in the demonstration: the Maersk Roubaix, which switched fuels entering Port <span class="hlt">of</span> Houston, TX, and the Port <span class="hlt">of</span> Progreso, <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>, and the Hamburg Süd vessel Cap San Lorenzo, which switched fuels entering the Port <span class="hlt">of</span> Houston and the Mexican Ports <span class="hlt">of</span> Veracruz and Altamira. Operational and cost aspects were also noted. (2) Emissions reductions were quantified through both a calculation approach based on fuel use <span class="hlt">of</span> the Maersk Line vessel Roubaix and in-stack monitoring <span class="hlt">of</span> emissions from the Hamburg Süd Cap San Lorenzo.

Eugene</p> <p>2009-04-01</p> <p>During most summers over the past 30 years, bottom dissolved oxygen across a large area <span class="hlt">of</span> the Louisiana and upper Texas continental shelf declined to concentrations too low (hypoxia) for most fish and large invertebrate animals to survive. This area is one <span class="hlt">of</span> the best known “dead zones” proliferating around the world [Diaz and Rosenberg, 2008]. During July 2008, hypoxic bottom waters extended across 20,720 square kilometers (Figure 1), but they were probably even more extensive because winds from Hurricane Dolly mixed the waters off Texas before the survey could be completed.

In general, the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> has a surface area <span class="hlt">of</span> 1.63 million square kilometers (630,000 square miles) and a watershed area <span class="hlt">of</span> 4.69 million square kilometers (1.81 million square miles) in the United States. This <span class="hlt">region</span> is one <span class="hlt">of</span> the nation's largest ecological systems and is closely linked to a significant portion <span class="hlt">of</span> the nation's economy. In the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Coast <span class="hlt">region</span>, energy, fisheries, agriculture, and tourism rank among the most significant sectors <span class="hlt">of</span> the economy. The <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> has five <span class="hlt">of</span> the top ten fishing ports in the United States, and commercial fisheries in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> annually produce nearly 2 billion tons <span class="hlt">of</span> fish, oysters, shrimps, and crabs. <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> ports handle one-half <span class="hlt">of</span> the nation's import-export tonnage. Petroleum produced in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> represents about 80% <span class="hlt">of</span> the nation's offshore production. The <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Coast <span class="hlt">region</span> largely relies on many natural resources to fuel many important sectors <span class="hlt">of</span> its economy. But nevertheless, the health and vitality <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> have declined in recent years, caused in part by increasing populations along its coast and the growing demand upon its resources and in part by the accumulation <span class="hlt">of</span> years <span class="hlt">of</span> careless depletion, abuse, and neglect <span class="hlt">of</span> the environment. Equally important are the impacts <span class="hlt">of</span> natural and human-induced climate change on the economy and on the quality <span class="hlt">of</span> life for millions <span class="hlt">of</span> people living in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Coast <span class="hlt">region</span>. The results have generated alarming increases in damage to and destruction <span class="hlt">of</span> the ecosystems and habitats <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>.

These results are often used in conjunction with sea level rise estimates to evaluate the long term storage, and potential release, <span class="hlt">of</span> carbon as salt marshes are overtaken by rising waters. However, results from these studies are not always comparable because <span class="hlt">of</span> diverse sampling and analytical methods, which may skew <span class="hlt">regional</span> averages. In addition, salt marsh vertical accretion and carbon burial rates can be highly variable on local scales depending on sampling locations within the marsh, e.g. levee vs marsh plain, and methods to determine carbon quantity, such as utilizing linear relationships between % organic matter and % carbon from other studies. Anthropogenic impacts on accretion and carbon burial may also influence interpretation <span class="hlt">of</span> results. Utilizing consistent methods for local and <span class="hlt">regional</span> marsh research will improve the accuracy <span class="hlt">of</span> accretion and burial rates which is fundamental to our ability to predict responses to climate change. Our study examined sediment cores extracted from 6 salt marshes - 5 marshes along Texas to Florida coasts and 1 marsh on the Florida Atlantic coast. These marshes were selected for minimal human influence and consistent sampling and analytical methodologies were employed to compare vertical accretion and carbon burial variability on local and <span class="hlt">regional</span> scales. Total organic carbon (TOC) and total nitrogen were determined via direct measurement and accretion rates were calculated based on 210Pb via 210Po alpha spectrometry. The lowest TOC inventory was found at Mission-Aransas, TX (18.57 g OC), whereas the highest was found at Apalachicola, FL (35.05 g OC).

Bounded by <span class="hlt">regional</span> growth faults along the landward margin <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Basin, the geopressured zone extends some 1300 km from the Rio Grande (at the boundary between the United States and <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>) to the mouth <span class="hlt">of</span> the Mississippi river. Gulfward, it extends to an unknown distance across the Continental Shelf. Within geopressured deposits, geothermal gradients range upwards to 100 ??C/km, being greatest within and immediately below the depth interval in which the maximum pressure gradient change occurs. The 120 ??C isogeotherm ranges from about 2500 to 5000 m below sea level, and conforms in a general way with depth <span class="hlt">of</span> occurrence <span class="hlt">of</span> the top <span class="hlt">of</span> the geopressured zone.

Because the driving force behind such changes may have been related to salinity <span class="hlt">of</span> the north flowing Atlantic Ocean conveyor circulation, it is critical to know the volume, timing, and location <span class="hlt">of</span> fresh water entering the North Atlantic from the melting Laurentide Ice Sheet. During the Younger Dryas cold episode, 11,000-10,000 years B.P., there was a two-fold increase in the volume <span class="hlt">of</span> meltwater plus precipitation runoff, to more than 1700 km³ yr-1, flowing through the St. Lawrence valley to the North Atlantic, mainly because retreating ice allowed the glacial Lake Agassiz basin to drain eastward into the Great Lakes at this time. There was a corresponding decline in discharge from Lake Agassiz through the Mississippi River to the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. Runoff to the Arctic Ocean also increased at about the beginning <span class="hlt">of</span> the Younger Dryas, from 740 to 900 km³ yr-1, because <span class="hlt">of</span> the capture <span class="hlt">of</span> what is now the headwater <span class="hlt">region</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> the Mackenzie River watershed. This, in combination with rising sea level and warming climate, may have increased the amount <span class="hlt">of</span> pack ice reaching the North Atlantic through the Norwegian Sea from the Arctic Ocean. At 10,000 years B.P., eastward overflow from the western interior <span class="hlt">of</span> North America was blocked by advancing ice, again forcing overflow to the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> and, possibly, to the northwest into the Arctic Ocean. Although total runoff to the oceans from all <span class="hlt">regions</span> draining from the Laurentide Ice Sheet did not vary substantially between 12,000 and 9000 years B.P., if discharge to the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> is excluded, fresh water reaching the North Atlantic averaged 4000 km³ yr-1 during the Younger Dryas, in contrast to 2870 km³ yr-1 just before this cold episode and 3440 km³ yr-1 just after it.</p> </li> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2017AGUFM.T23G..04K','NASAADS'); return false;" href="http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abs/2017AGUFM.T23G..04K"><span>Integrated Geophysical Models Extending From The Craton Across The <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Coast <span class="hlt">Region</span> <span class="hlt">Of</span> The USA</span></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://adsabs.harvard.edu/abstract_service.html">NASA Astrophysics Data System (ADS)</a></p> <p>Keller, G.

To understand the structure <span class="hlt">of</span> this <span class="hlt">region</span> and its variations from the southern Appalachians to northernmost <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>, we have complied and integrated multiple data sets to produce a set <span class="hlt">of</span> lithospheric scale transects crossing this <span class="hlt">region</span>. These transects are presented as gravity models, but they are constrained by the available seismic reflection/refraction, passive seismic, magnetic, drilling, and geological data. The key transect is based on the PASSCAL wide-angle reflection/refraction experiment that extended from the Ouachita Mountains in Arkansas across the Sabine uplift in Louisiana and into the northernmost <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. This experiment imaged the Iapetan rifted margin and showed that it was not strongly deformed. This model and one across Alabama delineated crustal blocks south <span class="hlt">of</span> the rifted margin <span class="hlt">of</span> Laurentia whose origin is unknown. In central Texas, the models show a crust that thins gradually from the Ouachita orogenic belt southward across the coastline to the edge <span class="hlt">of</span> the continental margin in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. In western Texas and adjacent northern <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>, another crustal block has been proposed. Thus, our integrated models and geologic constraints show that the Appalachian and Ouachita orogenic belts were formed during assembly <span class="hlt">of</span> Pangea (by 270 Ma), and were driven onto the Iapetan rifted margin by collisions with arcs, exotic terranes, and other continents. They also show that the sinuous curves <span class="hlt">of</span> the Appalachian-Ouachita orogen mimic the shape <span class="hlt">of</span> the Iapetan rifted margin and subsequent passive-margin shelf edge. Our results indicate that the Ouachita orogeny appears to be the result <span class="hlt">of</span> soft collisions that have left the pre-orogenic rifted margins largely intact and reflect the complex interactions <span class="hlt">of</span> compressional and strike-slip deformation.</p> </li> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('http://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED391545.pdf','ERIC'); return false;" href="http://files.eric.ed.gov/fulltext/ED391545.pdf"><span>Education Conference <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Accord (1st, Daytona Beach, FL, September 28-30, 1995).

GCOOS-RA is one <span class="hlt">of</span> 11 RAs organized under the NOAA-led U.S. Integrated Ocean Observing System (IOOS) Program Office to aggregate <span class="hlt">regional</span> data and make these data publicly-available in preferred forms and formats via standards-based web services. Initial development <span class="hlt">of</span> GCOOS focused on building elements <span class="hlt">of</span> the IOOS Data Management and Communications Plan which is a framework for end-to-end interoperability. These elements included: data discovery, catalog, metadata, online-browse, data access and transport. Initial data types aggregated included near real-time physical oceanographic, marine meteorological and satellite data. Our focus in the middle <span class="hlt">of</span> the past decade was on the production <span class="hlt">of</span> basic products such as maps <span class="hlt">of</span> current oceanographic conditions and quasi-static datasets such as bathymetry and climatologies. In the latter part <span class="hlt">of</span> the decade we incorporated historical physical oceanographic datasets and historical coastal and offshore water quality data into our holdings and added our first biological dataset. We also developed web environments and products to support Citizen Scientists and stakeholder groups such as recreational boaters. Current efforts are directed towards applying data quality assurance (testing and flagging) to non-federal data, data archiving at national repositories, serving and visualizing numerical model output, providing data services for glider operators, and supporting marine biodiversity observing networks. GCOOS Data Management works closely with the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Research Initiative Information and Data Cooperative and various groups involved with <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Restoration. GCOOS-RA has influenced attitudes and behaviors associated with good data stewardship and data management practices across the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> and will to continue to do so into the next decade.</p> </li> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('http://graham.umich.edu/scavia/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/2014-Gulf-of-Mexico-Hypoxic-Forecast.pdf','USGSPUBS'); return false;" href="http://graham.umich.edu/scavia/wp-content/uploads/2009/11/2014-Gulf-of-Mexico-Hypoxic-Forecast.pdf"><span>2014 <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Hypoxia Forecast</span></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://pubs.er.usgs.gov/pubs/index.jsp?view=adv">USGS Publications Warehouse</a></p> <p>Scavia, Donald; Evans, Mary Anne; Obenour, Dan</p> <p>2014-01-01</p> <p>The <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> annual summer hypoxia forecasts are based on average May total nitrogen loads from the Mississippi River basin for that year.

Using both petroleum systems and seismic stratigraphic approaches, the exploration focus for Leg II was to identify sites with the potential for gas hydrate-saturated sand reservoirs. Two holes were drilled at the AC 21 site in the Diana Basin located in the western <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. The data acquired consist <span class="hlt">of</span> a comprehensive suite <span class="hlt">of</span> high resolution LWD logs including gamma ray, density, porosity, sonic, and resistivity tools. No physical samples were taken in the field. The primary objective <span class="hlt">of</span> each well was to determine the presence or absence <span class="hlt">of</span> gas hydrate from the log data at the predetermined primary targets in a Pleistocene basin floor turbidite complex approximately 500 ft below seafloor. At the AC 21-A location, two high net to gross target sands were encountered that measured 15 ft and 60 ft, respectively. The AC 21-A well was drilled through the interpreted base <span class="hlt">of</span> gas hydrate stability to a depth approximately 1500 ft below sea floor. The AC 21-B well encountered a single high net to gross target sand measuring over 120 ft thick. At both AC 21 well locations, all target sand intervals had elevated formation resistivity measurements relative to clearly wet, stratigraphically equivalent sands encountered in the <span class="hlt">region</span>, interpreted to indicate low to moderate levels <span class="hlt">of</span> gas hydrate saturation. The likely discovery <span class="hlt">of</span> thick gas hydrate-filled sands at the AC 21 site validates the exploration approach, and strongly indicates that gas hydrate can be found in reservoir quality sands.

In order to cross from one ocean to the other, individuals <span class="hlt">of</span> E. terraenovae must have passed the continental divide, which is a physiographic feature that separates surface waters that flow into the Atlantic and Pacific versants. Two vast endorheic <span class="hlt">regions</span>, which together span more than 400,000 km2 in area, currently dominate drainage systems in northern and central <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. The endorheic <span class="hlt">regions</span> are broadly bounded by two mountain ranges and coincide with the arid and semi-arid <span class="hlt">regions</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> the Chihuahuan desert.

However, drainage systems are constantly varying and adjusting to changing conditions imposed by climate, tectonic activity, volcanism, and pronounced asymmetries in topography and rainfall distribution. The migration route across <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> for Enhydritherium terraenovae in the late Miocene (≥6 Ma) could have been facilitated by one or more river captures that inverted the flow direction near the headwaters <span class="hlt">of</span> a drainage system that debouched either into the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> or the Pacific coast.

The first step in establishing this framework was the breakup <span class="hlt">of</span> Laurentia during the Early Paleozoic. At least one tectonic block rifted away from Laurentia's southern margin at this time, and is interpreted to be presently located in Argentina. Rifting resulted in a sinuous margin consisting <span class="hlt">of</span> alternating ridge and transform segments extending from the southeastern U.S. across Texas into northern <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. The Paleozoic margin is associated with a clearly defined gravity high, and ends in the trend <span class="hlt">of</span> this high are associated with intersections <span class="hlt">of</span> ridge and transform segments along the margin. By the end <span class="hlt">of</span> the Paleozoic, continental assembly via the Appalachian-Ouachita orogeny added new terranes to the eastern and southern margins <span class="hlt">of</span> Laurentia and the assembly <span class="hlt">of</span> the supercontinent Pangea was complete. Triassic through Late Jurassic opening <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> (GOM) created a complex margin, initially mobilizing several crustal blocks that were eventually left behind on the North American margin as seafloor spreading developed within the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> and the Yucatan block separated and rotated into its current position. Recent deep seismic reflection profiles along the northern margin <span class="hlt">of</span> the GOM show that rifted continental crust extends offshore for 250 km before the oceanic crust <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> is encountered. Our group has worked to produce four integrated models <span class="hlt">of</span> the lithospheric structure based upon reflection, refraction, and teleseismic data acquired across this margin integrated with gravity, magnetic, geologic and drilling data. These models define a complex zone <span class="hlt">of</span> crustal thinning along the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Coastal plain <span class="hlt">of</span> Texas that is covered by up to 10km <span class="hlt">of</span> primarily Cretaceous and younger sedimentary rocks.

In adapting sound policies for control strategies, it is crucial to assess the impact <span class="hlt">of</span> local pollution versus transboundary air pollution, and in a <span class="hlt">region</span> such as GoM with scarce monitoring capability over open waters such distinctions represents a challenge.

In particular, ozone profiles from the Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) and Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) onboard Aura and aerosol products from Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) onboard Terra and Aqua satellites were utilized in a modeling study during August 2006.

Measurements from the container include in-situ trace gas and aerosol analyses and the collection <span class="hlt">of</span> aerosol and whole air samples for post-flight laboratory analysis. A suite <span class="hlt">of</span> 20 non-methane hydrocarbons (NMHCs) are measured from the whole air samples, along with greenhouse gas and halocarbon measurements. As all flights originate in and return to Frankfurt, Germany, the free and upper troposphere (FT/UT) over Europe and the North Atlantic are probed on nearly every flight, and the composition was found to be strongly influenced by air masses from the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> <span class="hlt">region</span>. Over 75% <span class="hlt">of</span> air samples collected during flight had backwards trajectories which passed over the <span class="hlt">region</span>, and nearly half <span class="hlt">of</span> these had passed through the lower troposphere and boundary layer, affording CARIBIC a "bird's-eye view" <span class="hlt">of</span> emissions from the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">region</span>.

P.</p> <p>2016-12-01</p> <p>The Southeastern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> (SEGOM) is defined here as the seaway between Yucatan and Florida, south <span class="hlt">of</span> the Tampa Embayment. This area is regarded as a southward propagating rift in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. There is an overwhelming amount <span class="hlt">of</span> previous evidence that the Yucatan block rotated counterclockwise about 42 degrees around a pole located just north <span class="hlt">of</span> present-day Cuba (23oN, 84oW) during the Late Jurassic to Earliest Cretaceous oceanic spreading phase. North <span class="hlt">of</span> the pole in the SEGOM the rotational movement <span class="hlt">of</span> Yucatan was accommodated by a uniformly increasing amount <span class="hlt">of</span> SW-NE extension. The degree <span class="hlt">of</span> extension north <span class="hlt">of</span> 25oN was large enough to result in rifting and oceanic spreading. Lack <span class="hlt">of</span> salt in the area south <span class="hlt">of</span> the Tampa embayment indicates that the SEGOM was not affected by the large amount <span class="hlt">of</span> NW-SE continental extension as observed in the rest <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. Thus, the area between Yucatan and the Sarasota arch remained a land bridge between the proto- GOM and the Proto-Caribbean and formed a barrier to salt deposition. During the period <span class="hlt">of</span> late Jurassic oceanic crust formation (and Yucatan rotation), the southern tip <span class="hlt">of</span> the oceanic spreading center propagated south from 27oN to 25oN, or about 220 km. In the 220 km long zone from 25oN to the pole (23oN) the rotation <span class="hlt">of</span> Yucatan was accommodated by continental rifting only. The validity <span class="hlt">of</span> the above outlined propagating rift model in the SEGOM is also supported by the age differences in the observed post-rift unconformities along its margins. At the edge <span class="hlt">of</span> the salt basin to the north, the post-rift unconformity in the upper crust occurs at the base <span class="hlt">of</span> the Louann salt and thus is Callovian in age. In the southern continental rift segment <span class="hlt">of</span> the SEGOM, a seismic to well tie at the DSDP Site 535 shows that the post-rift unconformity is no younger than Late Berriasian to Early Valanginian.

Observations made during five research cruises in the NGOM included phytoplankton photosynthetic and optical properties and associated environmental conditions and phytoplankton community structure. Distinct patterns <span class="hlt">of</span> spatial and temporal variability in photophysiological parameters were found for waters dominated by different phytoplankton groups. Photophysiological properties for locations associated with dominance by a particular group <span class="hlt">of</span> phytoplankton showed evidence <span class="hlt">of</span> photoacclimation as reflected by differences in light absorption and pigment characteristics in relationship to different light environments. The maximum rate <span class="hlt">of</span> photosynthesis normalized to chlorophyll (PmaxB) was significantly higher for communities dominated (>60% biomass) by cyanobacteria + prochlorophyte (cyano + prochl). The initial slope <span class="hlt">of</span> the photosynthesis-irradiance (P-E) curve normalized to chlorophyll (αB) was not clearly related to phytoplankton community structure and no significant differences were found in PmaxB and αB between different geographic <span class="hlt">regions</span>. In contrast, maximum quantum yield <span class="hlt">of</span> carbon fixation in photosynthesis (Φcmax) differed significantly between <span class="hlt">regions</span> and was higher for diatom-dominated communities. Multiple linear regression models, specific for the different phytoplankton communities, using a combination <span class="hlt">of</span> environmental and bio-optical proxies as predictor variables showed considerable promise for estimation <span class="hlt">of</span> the photophysiological parameters on a <span class="hlt">regional</span> scale.

Movement paths <span class="hlt">of</span> 10 satellite-tracked female loggerheads (Caretta caretta) from three separate subpopulations in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>, USA, revealed migration to discrete foraging sites in two common areas at-sea in 2008, 2009, and 2010. Foraging sites were 102–904 km away from nesting and tagging sites, and located off southwest Florida and the northern Yucatan Peninsula, <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. Within 3–35 days, turtles migrated to foraging sites where they all displayed high site fidelity over time. Core-use foraging areas were 13.0–335.2 km2 in size, in water <50 m deep, within a mean distance to nearest coastline <span class="hlt">of</span> 58.5 km, and in areas <span class="hlt">of</span> relatively high net primary productivity. The existence <span class="hlt">of</span> shared <span class="hlt">regional</span> foraging sites highlights an opportunity for marine conservation strategies to protect important at-sea habitats for these imperiled marine turtles, in both USA and international waters.

R.; Reagan, M. T.; Guinasso, N. L.; Garcia-Pineda, O. G.</p> <p>2012-12-01</p> <p>Gas hydrate deposits commonly occur at the seafloor-water interface on marine margins. They are especially prevalent in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> where they are associated with natural oil seeps. The stability <span class="hlt">of</span> these deposits is potentially challenged by fluctuations in bottom water temperature, on an annual time-scale, and under the long-term influence <span class="hlt">of</span> climate change. We mapped the locations <span class="hlt">of</span> natural oil seeps where shallow gas hydrate deposits are known to occur across the entire <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> basin based on a comprehensive review <span class="hlt">of</span> synthetic aperture radar (SAR) data (~200 images). We prepared a bottom water temperature map based on the archive <span class="hlt">of</span> CTD casts from the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> (~6000 records). Comparing the distribution <span class="hlt">of</span> gas hydrate deposits with predicted bottom water temperature, we find that a broad area <span class="hlt">of</span> the upper slope lies above the theoretical stability horizon for structure 1 gas hydrate, while all sites where gas hydrate deposits occur are within the stability horizon for structure 2 gas hydrate. This is consistent with analytical results that structure 2 gas hydrates predominate on the upper slope (Klapp et al., 2010), where bottom water temperatures fluctuate over a 7 to 10 C range (approx. 600 m depth), while pure structure 1 hydrates are found at greater depths (approx. 3000 m). Where higher hydrocarbon gases are available, formation <span class="hlt">of</span> structure 2 gas hydrate should significantly increase the resistance <span class="hlt">of</span> shallow gas hydrate deposits to destabilizing effects variable or increasing bottom water temperature.

Twenty-two marine mammals may occur in Hawaii; 2 Mystecetes, 19 Odonotocetes, and the endemic monkmore » seal. The monk seal (Monachus schauinslandi), an endangered species, lives in the extreme northwestern island chain away from potential OTEC sites. Among the most common cetaceans in Hawaii is the endangered humpback whale (Megaptera novaeangliae). Stenella longirostris, the spinner dolphin; and Tursiops sp., the bottlenosed dolphin are also fairly common. The baleen whales feed on zooplankton during the summer in polar waters, and are migratory, while the toothed whales feed mainly on fish and squid, and are found in temperate or tropical <span class="hlt">regions</span> year-round.

This oil forms thin (~0.1 μm) layers that enhance specular reflectivity and have been widely used to quantify the abundance and distribution <span class="hlt">of</span> natural seeps using synthetic aperture radar (SAR). An analogous process occurred at a vastly greater scale for oil and gas discharged from BP's Macondo well blowout. SAR data allow direct comparison <span class="hlt">of</span> the areas <span class="hlt">of</span> the ocean surface covered by oil from natural sources and the discharge. We used a texture classifying neural network algorithm to quantify the areas <span class="hlt">of</span> naturally occurring oil-covered water in 176 SAR image collections from the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> obtained between May 1997 and November 2007, prior to the blowout. Separately we also analyzed 36 SAR images collections obtained between 26 April and 30 July, 2010 while the discharged oil was visible in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. For the naturally occurring oil, we removed pollution events and transient oceanographic effects by including only the reflectance anomalies that that recurred in the same locality over multiple images. We measured the area <span class="hlt">of</span> oil layers in a grid <span class="hlt">of</span> 10x10 km cells covering the entire <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. Floating oil layers were observed in only a fraction <span class="hlt">of</span> the total <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> area amounting to 1.22x10^5 km^2. In a bootstrap sample <span class="hlt">of</span> 2000 replications, the combined average area <span class="hlt">of</span> these layers was 7.80x10^2 km^2 (sd 86.03). For a <span class="hlt">regional</span> comparison, we divided the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> into four quadrates along 90° W longitude, and 25° N latitude. The NE quadrate, where the BP discharge occurred, received on average 7.0% <span class="hlt">of</span> the total natural seepage in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> (5.24 x10^2 km^2, sd 21.99); the NW quadrate received on average 68.0% <span class="hlt">of</span> this total (5.30 x10^2 km^2, sd 69.67). The BP blowout occurred in the NE quadrate <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>; discharged oil that reached the surface drifted over a large area north <span class="hlt">of</span> 25° N.

Over 500 more anthropogenic `dead zones' exist in coastal waters. The point source inputs within the Mississippi River watershed account for about ten per cent <span class="hlt">of</span> the total nitrogen inputs to the Mississippi River, with the remaining being nonpoint source. Atmospheric nitrogen makes up about sixteen per cent <span class="hlt">of</span> the nonpoint source input <span class="hlt">of</span> nitrogen. Most <span class="hlt">of</span> the NOx is generated within the Ohio River watershed from the burning <span class="hlt">of</span> fossil fuels. Some remains to be deposited into the same watershed, but the airshed deposits much <span class="hlt">of</span> the NOx along the U.S. eastern seaboard, including Chesapeake Bay, which also has a hypoxia problem. Most <span class="hlt">of</span> the volatilized ammonia is produced from fertilizers or manure within the upper Mississippi River watershed, is deposited within a localized airshed, and is not airborne long distances like the NOx. The atmospheric nitrogen input to the coastal waters affected by hypoxia is considered to be minimal. In the last half century, the nitrogen load from the Mississippi River to the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> has increased 300 percent. During this period, low oxygen bottom-waters have developed in the coastal waters and worsened coincident with the increase in the nitrogen load. The 31-yr average size <span class="hlt">of</span> the bottom-water hypoxia area in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> is 13,800 square kilometers, well over the 5,000 square kilometers goal <span class="hlt">of</span> the Mississippi River Nutrient/<span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Hypoxia Task Force.

With over half <span class="hlt">of</span> the U.S. population living within 50 miles <span class="hlt">of</span> the coast, SLR has the potential to considerably impact both human and ecological habitats. Effects <span class="hlt">of</span> SLR will be felt along coastal beaches, estuarine waters, barrier islands, submerged aquatic vegetation beds, sand and mud flats, oyster reefs and tidal and freshwater wetlands. The <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> coast sustains a diverse habitat including delta marshes, lower river floodplain forests, and oyster reefs, which provide critical habitats for many commercially important species. How we choose to study these complex processes and the adaptation tools that we develop may determine our ability to sustain the human and ecological habitats. The purpose <span class="hlt">of</span> this presentation is to examine the dynamic effects <span class="hlt">of</span> SLR to the coasts and coastal habitats <span class="hlt">of</span> the Northern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> and to compare and contrast those results with a simpler bathtub model (static) approach.

We measured vessel density, hydraulically weighted vessel diameter, potential conductance capacity, and maximum tensile fracture stress. At each sampling site we recorded mangrove canopy height and soil salinity, and determined average minimum winter temperature from archived weather records. At a subset <span class="hlt">of</span> sites, we measured carbon fixation rates using a LI-COR 6400XT Portable Photosynthesis System. Populations <span class="hlt">of</span> A. germinans from cooler areas (Texas and Louisiana) had narrower vessels, likely reducing the risk <span class="hlt">of</span> freeze-induced embolisms but also decreasing water conductance capacity. Vessels were also narrower in <span class="hlt">regions</span> with high soil salinity, including Texas, USA and tidal flats in Veracruz, <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. Vessel density did not consistently vary with temperature or soil salinity. In abiotically stressful areas, A. germinans had a safe hydraulic architecture with narrower vessels that may increase local survival. This safe architecture appears to come at a substantial physiological cost in terms <span class="hlt">of</span> reduction in conductance capacity and carbon fixation potential, likely contributing to lower canopy heights. The current distribution <span class="hlt">of</span> A. germinans in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> is influenced by the complex interplay between temperature, salinity, and vessel architecture. Given the plasticity <span class="hlt">of</span> A. germinans vessel characters, it is likely that this mangrove species will be able to adapt to a wide range <span class="hlt">of</span> potential future environmental conditions, and continue its expansion in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> in response to near-term climate change.</p> </li> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2010/1191/','USGSPUBS'); return false;" href="https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/2010/1191/"><span>Sampling protocol for post-landfall Deepwater Horizon oil release, <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>, 2010</span></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://pubs.er.usgs.gov/pubs/index.jsp?view=adv">USGS Publications Warehouse</a></p> <p>Wilde, F.D.; Skrobialowski, S.C.; Hart, J.S.</p> <p>2010-01-01</p> <p>The protocols and procedures described in this report are designed to be used by U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) field teams for the collection <span class="hlt">of</span> environmental data and samples in coastal areas affected by the 2010 Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>.

Shallow and deep gliders measure ocean temperature to derive ocean heat content (OHC), along with salinity, dissolved oxygen, fluorescence, and CDOM, in the central and eastern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> shelf and offshore. Since 2012, gliders have collected 4500+ vertical profiles and surveyed 5000+ nautical miles. Adaptive sampling and mission coordination with NCEP modelers provides specific datasets to assimilate into EMC's coupled HYCOM-HWRF model and 'connect-the-dots' between well-established Eulerian metocean measurements by obtaining (and validating) data between fixed stations (e.g. platform and buoy ADCPs) . Adaptive sampling combined with remote sensing provides satellite-derived OHC validation and the ability to sample productive coastal waters advected offshore by the Loop Current. Tracking coastal waters with remote sensing provides another verification <span class="hlt">of</span> estimate Loop Current and eddy boundaries, as well as quantifying productivity and analyzing water quality on the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> coast, shelf break and offshore.

This paper answers these questions for the industry operating in the offshore <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. Future oil and gas production, as well as demand for offshore drilling and production facilities, are shown to depend on the size distribution <span class="hlt">of</span> undiscovered fields, their associated production costs, and oil and gas prices.

Calculations show a substantial payoff to the drilling industry, in terms <span class="hlt">of</span> potential demand increases, if it can develop and implement cost reducing technologies. Implications <span class="hlt">of</span> these results for other offshore producing areas such as the North Sea are also discussed. ?? 1986.</p> </li> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('http://hdl.handle.net/2060/20130012931','NASA-TRS'); return false;" href="http://hdl.handle.net/2060/20130012931"><span><span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Air Quality: CALIPSO Support for <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Air Quality Relating to the Deepwater Horizon Oil Spill</span></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://ntrs.nasa.gov/search.jsp">NASA Technical Reports Server (NTRS)</a></p> <p>Nguyen, Myngoc T.; Lapointe, Stephen; Jennings, Brittney; Zoumplis, Angela</p> <p>2011-01-01</p> <p>On April 20, 2010, an oil platform belonging to BP exploded and leaked a huge volume <span class="hlt">of</span> oil into the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. In an effort to control the spread <span class="hlt">of</span> the oil, BP applied dispersants such as Corexit and conducted in-situ burnings <span class="hlt">of</span> the oil. This catastrophe created a complex chain <span class="hlt">of</span> events that affected not only the fragile water and land ecosystems, but the humans who breathe the air every day. Thousands <span class="hlt">of</span> people were exposed to fumes associated with oil vapors from the spill, burning <span class="hlt">of</span> the oil, and the toxic mixture <span class="hlt">of</span> dispersants. While aiding in clean-up efforts, local fishermen were directly exposure to fumes when working on the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>. A notable amount <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> Coast residents were also exposed to the oil fumes as seasonal southeasterly winds blew vapors toward land. The Volatile Organic Compounds (VOC) found in oil vapors include: benzene, toluene, ethyl benzene, xylene, naphthalene, hydrogen sulfide and particulate matter (PM). Increases in water temperature and sunlight due to the summer season allow for these VOCs and PM to evaporate into the air more rapidly. Aside from the VOCs found in oil vapors, the dispersant being used to break up the oil is highly toxic and is thought to be even more toxic than the oil itself (EPA website, 2010). To protect human health, the environment, and to make informed policy decisions relevant to the spill, the EPA <span class="hlt">Region</span> 6 has continuously monitored the affected areas carefully for levels <span class="hlt">of</span> pollutants in the outdoor air that are associated with petroleum products and the burning <span class="hlt">of</span> oil along the coast. In an effort to prevent, prepare for, and respond to future oil spills that occur in and around inland waters <span class="hlt">of</span> the United States, the EPA has been working with local, state, and federal response partners.

The proposed hypothesis evaluates: 1) the differences between attached and detached MTDs in the Neogene Northern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> through seismic characterization and well log analysis, 2) variations <span class="hlt">of</span> MTD dimensions and map geometries in relation to depositional age throughout the northeastern and northcentral <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>, and 3) the differentiation between sand-prone and shale-prone MTD's in relation to associated depositional mechanisms. This study will attempt lithologic calibration <span class="hlt">of</span> MTDs in Pleistocene -Miocene strata <span class="hlt">of</span> the study area through integration <span class="hlt">of</span> seismic observations (focused in supra-salt basins, which have the highest seismic data quality) and lithologic related information extracted from logs, mud logs (cuttings), and available core data to further constrain the distribution <span class="hlt">of</span> MTD types, lithology, and geometries. Initial interpretations reflect a variance <span class="hlt">of</span> seismic character responses to the presence <span class="hlt">of</span> sandstone and shale (constrained by wells) throughout different <span class="hlt">regions</span> and salt tectonic domains <span class="hlt">of</span> the MTD geobodies.

However, restoration <span class="hlt">of</span> these ecosystems is difficult due to their depth and lack <span class="hlt">of</span> proven restoration techniques. In lieu <span class="hlt">of</span> direct restoration efforts, marine protected areas (MPA's) have the potential to be effectively utilized as a restoration strategy. MPA's can provide benefits to offset injury by preventing predictable future impacts. In this regard, the Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary (FGBNMS) is undertaking an effort to expand its current boundaries to increase protection <span class="hlt">of</span> additional reefs, banks and coral communities in the northern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. This study will provide a description <span class="hlt">of</span> the methodology used to identify areas that will be included in the expansion proposal. The East and West Flower Garden Banks contain some <span class="hlt">of</span> the healthiest coral communities in the continental United States, and are just two <span class="hlt">of</span> dozens <span class="hlt">of</span> reefs, banks and other features that parallel the shelf edge off the coast <span class="hlt">of</span> Texas and Louisiana. In 2012 the FGBNMS released a Management Plan that outlined a proposal to expand the boundaries <span class="hlt">of</span> the sanctuary. This recommendation resulted from a process that incorporated public input, input from material experts, as well as exploration and characterization activities throughout the <span class="hlt">region</span>. A range <span class="hlt">of</span> alternatives were developed based on new and existing biological and mapping information, and encompassing a wide range <span class="hlt">of</span> biologically and geologically significant sites throughout the <span class="hlt">region</span>. Designation <span class="hlt">of</span> additional MPA's will provide significant protection to important mesophotic and deepwater coral communities and assist in restoration efforts in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>.</p> </li> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2012-02-10/pdf/2012-3137.pdf','FEDREG'); return false;" href="https://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/pkg/FR-2012-02-10/pdf/2012-3137.pdf"><span>77 FR 7135 - <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Fishery Management Council (Council); Public Meetings</span></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.gpo.gov/fdsys/browse/collection.action?collectionCode=FR">Federal Register 2010, 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014</a></p> <p></p> <p>2012-02-10</p> <p>..., Suite 1100, Tampa, FL 33607.

M.</p> <p>2017-12-01</p> <p>Damage inflicted by tropical storms and hurricanes on coastal communities and industries has become a growing concern in recent decades. Consequently, utilizing products from existing ocean observing platforms, ocean modeling forecasts and satellite data helps to identify the effects <span class="hlt">of</span> individual storms on the northern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span>. Using data from the jointly-operated United States Geological Survey and Mississippi Department <span class="hlt">of</span> Marine Resources (USGS-MDMR) hydrological stations, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) tide gages, and the Central <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Ocean Observing System (CenGOOS) high frequency radar (HFR) network, we tracked temperature, salinity, water level and surface current changes in the Mississippi Sound and Bight during June 2017. We performed time series analyses and compared conditions during the buildup and passage <span class="hlt">of</span> tropical storm Cindy to climatological values as well as to satellite observations and results from a <span class="hlt">regional</span> application <span class="hlt">of</span> the Navy Coastal Ocean Model (NCOM). Elevated salinities proceeded Cindy's landfall on June 22, 2017, while anomalously fresh water marked all Mississippi Sound stations afterwards. Onshore surface currents dominated the Mississippi Bight, and current speeds exceeded more than four times the climatological average in the southeastern Bight. Indeed, <span class="hlt">regions</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> enhanced current speeds were observed throughout the month <span class="hlt">of</span> June 2017. Tidal ranges in the Mississippi Sound were on average half a meter higher than predicted, and Shell Beach (Louisiana) and the Bay Waveland Yacht Club (Mississippi) saw extended periods where tides exceeded one meter above predicted values. These results help to quantify the tidal inundation caused by Cindy but also illustrate the massive riverine discharge driven by the storm's precipitation.

The study focused on factors critical to the generation, migration, and entrapment <span class="hlt">of</span> hydrocarbons, such as: source beds and thermal maturation, reservoir rocks, structural and stratigraphic traps, and seals and timing <span class="hlt">of</span> hydrocarbon migration relative to formation <span class="hlt">of</span> traps. A variety <span class="hlt">of</span> evidence suggests that favorable conditions exist for the occurrence <span class="hlt">of</span> crude oil and naturalmore » gas resouces in the Maritime Boundry <span class="hlt">region</span>. Estimates <span class="hlt">of</span> the in-place resources (recovery factors were not applied) <span class="hlt">of</span> crude oil and natural gas range from 2.24 to 21.99 billion bbl and from 5.48 to 44.4 tcf, respectively.

Before the subduction <span class="hlt">of</span> the Guadalupe and Magdalena plates ceased, extension <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> began to the east, at the Basin and Range province. Later, it was focused west <span class="hlt">of</span> the Sierra Madre Occidental and the opening <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> started. Currently, the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> rifting has different characteristics to the north than to the south. In this study, we analyze the lithosphere thickness in the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> California <span class="hlt">region</span> by means <span class="hlt">of</span> P-wave and S-wave receiver functions. We grouped our lithosphere-thickness estimates into five froups: 1) North <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>, with a thin lithosphere ( 50 km) related to the extension observed in the Salton Through <span class="hlt">region</span>; 2) the northwestern part <span class="hlt">of</span> Baja California, with a thicker lithosphere ( 80 km), thinning towards the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> due to the extension and opening processes ( 65 km); 3) central Baja California, with no converted phase corresponding to the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary but evidence <span class="hlt">of</span> the presence <span class="hlt">of</span> a slab remnant; 4) the southern Baja California peninsula, showing a shallow lithosphere-astenosphere boundary (LAB) (< 55 km) and a lithosphere thinning towards the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>; and 5) the eastern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> margin with lithosphere thinning towards the south. These groups can be further assembled into three <span class="hlt">regions</span>: A) The northernmost <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>, where both margins <span class="hlt">of</span> the <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> show a relatively constant lithosphere thickness, consistent with an old basement in Sonora and the presence <span class="hlt">of</span> the Peninsular Ranges batholith in northern Baja California, thinning up towards the axis <span class="hlt">of</span> the rift in the northernmost <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>. B) Central and southern <span class="hlt">Gulf</span>, where the lithosphere thickness in this <span class="hlt">region</span> ranges from 40 to 55 km, which is consistent with the presence <span class="hlt">of</span> a younger crust. C) Central Baja California peninsula, where LAB is not detected; but there is evidence <span class="hlt">of</span> a slab remnant.</p> </li> <li> <p><a target="_blank" onclick="trackOutboundLink('https://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?tool=pmcentrez&artid=5018106','PMC'); return false;" href="https://www.pubmedcentral.nih.gov/articlerender.fcgi?tool=pmcentrez&artid=5018106"><span>Five Years Later: An Update on the Status <span class="hlt">of</span> Collections <span class="hlt">of</span> Endemic <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Fishes Put at Risk by the 2010 Oil Spill</span></a></p> <p><a target="_blank" href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/entrez/query.fcgi?DB=pmc">PubMed Central</a></p> <p>O’Neill, Glynn A.; Hardy, Brannon; Ballengee, Brandon</p> <p>2016-01-01</p> <p>Abstract Background The 2010 <span class="hlt">Gulf</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> <span class="hlt">Mexico</span> Oil Spill took place over 180,000 square kilometers during a 12-week period over five years ago; however, this event continues to influence the development and distribution <span class="hlt">of</span> organisms in and around the <span class="hlt">region</span> <span class="hlt">of</span> the disaster.
