- El efecto de la frontera en el Noreste del Océano Pacifico Norte John W. Foerster Ciencias de la Tierra plankton edge effect frontal zone Davidson Current dual frequency sonar During April 1989, an intensive, short-term study of oceanic zooplankton tested the hypothesisthat multidimensional distribution (patchiness, diffusion, layering) reflects the water mass interactionin the Northeast North Pacific Otean (NENPO) during the spring season. The mixing water massescreated an edge effect to which the biota responded. A dual frequency sonar array (38 kHz, 200 kHz),towing in tandem with an oceanographic sensor system, recorded zooplankton and environmentalchanges across various water masses. The tandem sensor system was a method to synoptically map theNENPO at the beginning of the productive period of early spring over an area of 3.3 x IO5 km, 125 min depth. Results from the plankton data showed patchiness and layers conforming to oceanographicphysical features. These pattems appeared to define the interactions of the water masses and confirmthe hypothesis. 1996 artículo científico 0185-3880 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=48022203 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=480 Ciencias Marinas application/pdf Universidad Autónoma de Baja California Ciencias Marinas (México) Num.2 Vol.22
