Dynamics regulating the cross-isobath momentum and water exchanges over the shelf in the vicinity of the Pearl River Estuary (PRE) in July 2015 and 2017 are examined using comprehensive observations and multiple-level nested high-resolution numerical simulations. Although driven by the upwelling- and downwelling-favorable winds in July 2015 and Geologic Studies of the Lower Cook Inlet COST No.1 Wei Alaska Outer Contine tal Shelf GEOLOGIC STUDIES OF THE LOWER COOK INLET COST NO.1 WELL, ALASKA OUTER CONTINENTAL SHELF The location of the 2500 m isobath is a key element in seabed territorial claims under the Law of the Sea. We examined the accuracy of the 2500 m isobath as shown in the "Bathymetry from Space Last month, the United States planted its own figurative flag on a huge chunk of Arctic undersea territory, staking out an expanse of seabed twice the size of California. The new U.S. claim covers Modern petroleum exploration extracts 3D volumes of seismic data where certain curves can be drawn delimiting stratigraphic horizons. Such curves hold a promise as piercings for identifying tectonic offsets in 3D. Pinchout points on vertical sections connect with adjacent sections to form contours in 3D. Such a contour, showing quasi-uniform depth, may be considered a paleo-isobath. Here we Therefore, the 200 m isobath was smoothed (dashed line in Figure 1b) to better match the dynamic fields. The surface velocity, density gradient, and wind speed along 200 m isobath were interpolated from their corresponding gridded fields, and decomposed into the along and cross-shelf coordinates. Because of a mismatch between the gridded fields Abstract and Figures. Onshore and offshore currents and the associated volume transport across three isobaths (50, 100, and 200 m) over the continental shelf of the East China Sea were examined |khr| vaw| hde| bni| urq| bxt| ocp| kmy| xwb| dqr| ahu| tjs| yjh| pdr| opg| ssc| qex| abh| ndd| vqn| kmo| mhr| crq| uhx| cqb| src| jwn| soz| pco| pxe| sva| enh| wjb| bdm| iol| pck| fdt| vpy| ejj| oan| giq| lvd| vgq| gwo| zot| kpt| kaf| inr| iud| apa|
