    Large-scale circulation around the Crozet Plateau controls an annual phytoplankton bloom in the Crozet Basin

    The circulation in the vicinity of the Crozet Plateau in the Southwest Indian Ocean sector of the Southern Ocean is examined using hydrographic sections, Argo floats, surface drifters, and satellite altimetry. All four techniques confirm that a major branch of the Antarctic Circumpolar Current, the SubAntarctic Front (SAF), flows anticyclonically round the Del Caño Rise west of the Crozet Plateau, i.e. eastward to the south of the Del Caño Rise, then northward and sometimes northwestward into the Crozet Basin, before turning back eastward in a combined front with the Agulhas Return Current and the SubTropical Front. This S-bend in the SAF is a permanent feature, controlled by the bathymetry, as has been inferred previously by Pollard and Read [Pollard, R.T., Read, J.F., 2001. Circulation pathways and transports of the Southern Ocean in the vicinity of the Southwest Indian Ridge. Journal of Geophysical Research, 106(C2), 2881–2898]. Similar, but much weaker, anticyclonic flow is found round the Crozet Plateau itself, with no more than 5?10×106 m3 s?1 turning north to the east of the Crozet Islands. Circulation north of the Crozet Plateau, between the Plateau and the S-bend of the SAF, is extremely weak, fed only by anticyclonic meanders breaking off the SAF into the area from the west or north, and occasional input from the northward, partially wind-driven (i.e. Ekman) flow south and east of the islands. In consequence of the weak circulation, dissolved iron from the land or sediments of the Crozet Plateau and Islands can build up during the winter in the Polar Frontal Zone between Crozet and the SAF, which gives rise to an annual bloom in this area. Biological evidence from satellite images, and from phytoplankton and zooplankton distributions, supports the circulation pattern we develop. This pattern confirms that patchiness of productivity in the bloom area results from close juxtaposition of water that has entered the area from the west from the SAF and from the south and east after flowing past the islands. Flow from the south and east has had a chance to entrain iron from the islands and sediments whereas flow from the west has not

    Sub-mesoscale structure and the development of an eddy in the Subantarctic Front north of the Crozet Islands

    No full text
    Two stations only 20 km apart were observed to have quite different biological and biogeochemical characteristics. The first site had low concentrations of chlorophyll and sufficient nutrients to support phytoplankton growth. The second site had high concentrations of chlorophyll, depleted nutrient concentrations and significant export of phytodetrital material had taken place. The two sites were located in the Polar Frontal Zone of the Southern Ocean to the northwest of the Crozet Islands. The main physical difference between the two sites was in the depth of the mixed layer. At the first site, the mixed layer was deep and well mixed, whereas the second site had a shallow, stratified layer; otherwise the horizontal gradients of physical properties were weak. Survey data from the surrounding area showed that the productive site was located on the edge of a filament of water drawn into a developing meander of the Subantarctic Front. Remotely sensed data provided a history of the growth of the meander in the Subantarctic Front and its development into an eddy in the Polar Frontal Zone. The dynamics associated with the filament in the meander were clearly important in driving the primary productivity, as an intrusion of saline water into adjacent fresher water generated a shallow mixed layer and conditions suitable for phytoplankton growth. The dynamics promoting conditions favourable to phytoplankton growth continued to operate as chlorophyll was enhanced in the eddy after the main bloom had died away. Later measurements suggested that the surface layer had changed from diatom dominated to a coccolithophore or calcite-rich community

    Dissertação (mestrado) - Universidade Federal de Santa Catarina, Centro de Comunicação e Expressão, Programa de Pós-graduação em Letras/Inglês e Literatura Correspondente, Florianópolis, 2010Through a dialogical relation between poems and song lyrics, and the socio-political contexts which surrounded these texts, this research discusses the resonance that North American poet, Allen Ginsberg, had over the Brazilian musical movement, the Tropicália. The corpora are the poems "Howl" (1956), "America" (1956), "Supermarket in California" (1955), "Sunflower Sutra" (1955), "Song" (1954), and "Wild Orphan" (1952), written by Allen Ginsberg, and the songs "Batmacumba" (1968), composed by Caetano Veloso, and Gilberto Gil, "Baby" (1968), composed by Caetano Veloso, "Geléia Geral" (1968), composed by Gilberto Gil and Torquato Neto, "Alegria, Alegria" (1967), composed by Caetano Veloso, and "Domingo no Parque" (1967), composed by Gilberto Gil. The main theoretical and critical parameters of this research include: Mikhail Bakhtin and his reflections on intertextuality; James J. Farrell, who believes that the American counterculture began with the Beats; Claudio Willer, who stresses the importance of Allen Ginsberg to the Beat movement, as well as to the birth of the American counterculture; Christopher Dunn, who emphasizes the historical, social, and political relevance of the Tropicália; and Celso Favaretto, who discusses in depth the complexity of most of the Tropicália songs. Based on such parameters, this research suggests that the life and work of Allen Ginsberg had great resonance over the creation of the Tropicália.Através de uma relação dialógica entre poesia e letras de música e o contexto sócio-político que circundava tais textos, este estudo discute a ressonância que o poeta Norte Americano, Allen Ginsberg, teve sobre o movimento musical Brasileiro, a Tropicália. A corpora são os poemas "Howl" (1956), "America" (1956), "Supermarket in California" (1955), "Sunflower Sutra" (1955), "Song" (1954), e "Wild Orphan" (1952), escritos por Allen Ginsberg, e as músicas "Batmacumba" (1968), composta por Caetano Veloso, e Gilberto Gil, "Baby" (1968), composta por Caetano Veloso, "Geléia Geral" (1968), composta por Gilberto Gil e Torquato Neto, "Alegria, Alegria" (1967), composta por Caetano Veloso, e "Domingo no Parque" (1967), composta por Gilberto Gil. Os principais parâmetros teóricos e críticos desta pesquisa incluem: Mikhail Bakhtin e suas reflexões sobre intertextualidade; James J. Farrell, que acredita que a contracultura Americana começou com os Beats; também em Claudio Willer, que salienta a importância de Allen Ginsberg no movimento Beat e no nascimento da contracultura Americana; Christopher Dunn, que enfatiza a relevância histórica, social e política da Tropicália; e Celso Favaretto, que discute em profundidade a complexidade da grande maioria das músicas da Tropicália. Baseando-se em tais parâmetros identificados, esta dissertação sugere que a vida e obra de Allen Ginsberg tiveram grande ressonância sobre a criação da Tropicália

    This interview with Anita Allen, JD, PhD, is part of “Moral Histories: Voices and Stories from the Founding Figures of Bioethics,” an oral history project of the Johns Hopkins Berman Institute of Bioethics. Professor Allen is the Henry R. Silverman Professor of Law and Professor of Philosophy at the University of Pennsylvania. She is the author of several books, including Unpopular Privacy: What Must We Hide and Uneasy Access: Privacy for Women in a Free Society. She served on President Barack Obama’s Commission for the Study of Bioethical Issues in 2010. Professor Allen’s expertise addresses both the philosophical and social justice aspects of privacy, particularly women’s reproductive rights and data privacy. Professor Allen discusses her upbringing as an "army brat" in Fort Warden, Washington, and her family's move to Atlanta, including difficult experiences in segregated schools post-Brown v. Board. She recounts her education at New College of Florida and the University of Michigan, her early interest in philosophy, and her transition to Harvard Law School. Allen shares her professional journey, from corporate law to teaching, along with her time spent as a news commentator. She also discusses her time spent with the National Endowment for the Humanities and on the advisory committee for the Human Genome Project. Allen offers her perspective on women’s reproductive rights, the overturning of Roe v. Wade, surrogacy, adoption, and interracial relationships, and the role of privacy in these issues. Allen describes her experience as a Black woman in philosophy, law, and bioethics, and discusses her work on Black pain. She concludes the interview talking about the importance of mental health law in the realm of bioethics
