Norwegian Coastal Current

The ratios I/ I, l/ Cs, and l/ Tc in seaweeds sampled at two locations along the Norwegian Coastal current from 1990 to 1998 were measured to estimate transit time in the thermohaline circulation of the Arctic and North Atlantic oceans (Yiou et al. 2002). l, Tc, and Cs are discharged from nuclear fuel reprocessing facilities into the Irish Sea and the... 

English Channel. Most of these discharges are transported into the Arctic Ocean by the Norwegian Coastal Current. The ratios and which vary up to... 

Confirming the data of Blumer (1970), the isolation of n-alkanes ranging from about C,4 to C36 without predominance of odd over even carbon number compounds was noticed by several authors for example, Parker et al. (1972) for unfiltered surface samples from the Gulf of Mexico and the Carribean sea, Barbier et al. (1973) for filtered samples of coastal waters off the French coast and open waters from the eastern Atlantic Ocean, Iliffe and Calder, (1974) for filtered samples from the eastern Gulf of Mexico loop current and the Carribean Sea, Hardy et al. (1977b) for waters collected around the United Kingdom, and Saliot and Tissier (1977) for the Norwegian Sea.
