In a cooperative effort between the U.S. Geological Survey, National Aeronautics and Space Administration, University of New Orleans, and Louisiana's Department of Natural Resources, Louisiana's barrier islands were surveyed with airborne topographic lidar and oblique aerialphotography both before and after the impacts of 2002's Tropical Storm Isidore and Hurricane Lili....

Giant submarine canyons: Is size any clue to their importance in the rock record?
William R. Normark, Paul R. Carlson
2003, GSA Special Papers (370) 175-190
Submarine canyons are the most important conduits for funneling sediment from continents to oceans. Submarine canyons, however, are zones of sediment bypassing, and little sediment accumulates in the canyon until it ceases to be an active conduit. To understand the potential importance in the rock record of any given submarine...

Acropora corals in Florida: status, trends, conservation, and prospects for recovery
Margaret W. Miller, Walt C. Jaap, Mark Chiappone, Bernardo Vargas-Angel, Brian Keller, Richard B. Aronson, Eugene A. Shinn
Andrew W. Bruckner, editor(s)
2003, Book, Proceedings of the Caribbean Acropora Workshop: potential application of the U.S. Endangered Species Act as a conservation strategy
Despite representing the northern extent of Acropora spp. in the Caribbean, most of the Florida reef line from Palm Beach through the Keys was built by these species. Climatic factors appear to have bee important agents of Acropora loss within historic (century) time frames. In the recent past...
A coastal and marine digital library at USGS
Fran Lightsom
2003, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (84) 486
The Marine Realms Information Bank (MRIB) is a distributed geolibrary [NRC, 1999] from the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution (WHOI), whose purpose is to classify, integrate, and facilitate access to Earth systems science information about ocean, lake, and coastal environments. Core MRIB services are: (1)...

La mondialisation des poussieres, les vents transportent, d'un continent a l'autre, des poussieres, mai aussi des micro-organismes et des substances toxiques. Ces "passagers clandestins" pourraient transporter des maladies et modifier les ecosystems
D. Griffin, C. Kellogg, V. Garrison, E. Shinn
2003, Pour la Science (309) 79-85
Un tour d'horizon de la littérature scientifique révèle que de nombreux champs d'investigation sont jugés dignes d'intérêt de façon périodique : certaines idées sont à la mode pour un temps, puis sombrent dans l'oubli, avant de refaire surface comme si elles n'avaient jamais été émises. L'aérobiologie, c'est-à-dire l'étude des micro-organismes,...
Pathogenic human viruses in coastal waters
Dale W. Griffin, Kim A. Donaldson, J.H. Paul, Joan B. Rose
2003, Clinical Microbiology Reviews (16) 129-143
This review addresses both historical and recent investigations into viral contamination of marine waters. With the relatively recent emergence of molecular biology-based assays, a number of investigations have shown that pathogenic viruses are prevalent in marine waters being impacted by sewage. Research has shown that this group of fecal-oral viral...
Supraglacial sulfur springs and associated biological activity in the Canadian high arctic - signs of life beneath the ice
Stephen E. Grasby, Carlton C. Allen, Teresa G. Longazo, John T. Lisle, Dale W. Griffin, Benoit Beauchamp
2003, Astrobiology (3) 583-596
Unique springs, discharging from the surface of an arctic glacier, release H2S and deposit native sulfur, gypsum, and calcite. The presence of sulfur in three oxidation states indicates a complex series of redox reactions. Physical and chemical conditions of the spring water and surrounding environment, as well as mineralogical and...
African and Asian dust: from desert soils to coral reefs
Virginia H. Garrison, Eugene A. Shinn, William T. Foreman, Dale W. Griffin, Charles W. Holmes, Christina A. Kellogg, Michael S. Majewski, Laurie L. Richardson, Kim B. Ritchie, Garriet W. Smith
2003, BioScience (53) 469-480
Many hypotheses have been proposed to explain the decline of coral reefs throughout the world, but none adequately accounts for the lack of recovery of reefs or the wide geographical distribution of coral diseases. The processes driving the decline remain elusive. Hundreds of millions of tons of dust transported annually...
Influence of climate on deep-water clastic sedimentation: application of a modern model, Peru-Chile Trough, to an ancient system, Ouachita Trough
N. Terence Edgar, C. Blaine Cecil
2003, Climate Controls on Stratigraphy: SEPM Special Publication (77) 185-191
Traditionally, an abrupt and massive influx of siliciclastic sediments into an area of deposition has been attributed to tectonic uplift without consideration of the influence of climate or climatic change on rates of weathering, erosion, transportation, and deposition. With few exceptions, fluvial sediment transport is minimal in both extremely arid...
A modern analogue for tectonic, eustatic, and climatic processes in cratonic basins: Gulf of Carpentaria, northern Australia
N. Terence Edgar, C. Blaine Cecil, R.E. Mattick, Patrick de Deckker, Yusuf S. Djajadihardja
2003, Climate Controls on Stratigraphy: SEPM Special Publication (77) 193-205
The Gulf of Carpentaria is a tropical, silled epicontinental sea and may be a modern analogue for ancient cratonic basins. For the purpose of this study, the Gulf of Carpentaria is compared to Pennsylvanian cratonic basins of the United States. During the Pennsylvanian, the North American continent moved from the...
