Project

A Modeling Study of Gulf of Mexico Deepwater Circulation, Ventilation, and Transport

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 ...

Project

A Study of Deep Drift and Temperature Data from PALACE Floats in the Gulf of Mexico

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 ...
