This project will address changes to the water environment of the bay like those that may be caused by a reduction in quality and quantity of water delivered to it. Florida's Apalachicola River receives its water from Georgia and Alabama ...

Deepwater leasing is advancing at an accelerated pace. This pace fueled by technological advances (extended drilling, 3-D seismic, enhanced computer and graphic capabilities), new geological provinces (sub-salt plays and deepwater), and the Deepwater Royalty Relief Act. We expect deepwater exploration ...

Recent interest in deepwater physical oceanography in the Gulf of Mexico has developed due to the recent increase in deepwater exploration and development. Few observations of the deepwater circulation of the Gulf of Mexico are available, and deepwater observational studies ...

While jellyfish populations in the Gulf of Mexico have been increasing for over a decade, unusually large numbers of adult jellyfish were present in the northern Gulf of Mexico during the late summer of 2000. The native jellies, such as ...

This is project was a collaborative effort between Amoco Corporation and Dynalysis of Princeton. The project is called GUMCurrent, which was a model hindcast of currents and elevations during 106 of the most severe storms in the Gulf of Mexico ...

The discharge of the Mississippi and Atchafalaya Rivers flows westward along the coast forming the Louisiana Coastal Current (LCC). This flow responds rapidly to wind events such as cold fronts, and may reverse direction during such events. In summer, weaker ...
