  • Life as a Leb-neh Lover: The Identity Crisis of a Maybe Lebanese

    Turning Point

    Have you ever wondered what happens to Lebanese when they leave mommy’s house? Whether it’s in Europe or in the U.S., whether it’s to work or to study, one thing unites us all: we’re Lebanese without our labneh, we’re foreigners away from our falafel. So what happens out there, and how do we survive?! Is tabbouleh taboo in Amreeka and how manquante is our beloved man’ousheh in Paree? When we come back home, are we dorks when we stand in an organized line at the amn el 3am? And how offended are…

    Have you ever wondered what happens to Lebanese when they leave mommy’s house? Whether it’s in Europe or in the U.S., whether it’s to work or to study, one thing unites us all: we’re Lebanese without our labneh, we’re foreigners away from our falafel. So what happens out there, and how do we survive?! Is tabbouleh taboo in Amreeka and how manquante is our beloved man’ousheh in Paree? When we come back home, are we dorks when we stand in an organized line at the amn el 3am? And how offended are we when someone screams profanity at us for stopping at a red light?

    Leba-oui, Leba-non, or Leba-shou? Should we go home after being away or should we forget about crazy Lebanon and just stay put. If we go home, can we live there or will we go completely insane like the rest of the country?

    A sometimes-Lebanese answers some of these questions and brings up a whole lot more in LIFE AS A LEB-NEH LOVER.

  • Submesoscale physical-biogeochemical coupling across the Ligurian current (northwestern Mediterranean) using a bio-optical glider

    Limnology and Oceanography

    ABSTRACT: A bio-optical autonomous underwater gliding vehicle, equipped with a conductivity, temperature, depth (CTD) sensor, an oxygen sensor, backscatter meters, chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) and chlorophyll fluorometers, and upwelling and downwelling radiometers was developed to characterize the biogeochemical response to physical forcing at the submesoscale (1-10 km). Winter data obtained in the northwestern Mediterranean basin in a 50-km transect that crossed the permanent…

    ABSTRACT: A bio-optical autonomous underwater gliding vehicle, equipped with a conductivity, temperature, depth (CTD) sensor, an oxygen sensor, backscatter meters, chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM) and chlorophyll fluorometers, and upwelling and downwelling radiometers was developed to characterize the biogeochemical response to physical forcing at the submesoscale (1-10 km). Winter data obtained in the northwestern Mediterranean basin in a 50-km transect that crossed the permanent, along-coast Ligurian Current show tight physical-biogeochemical coupling across the Ligurian Current, not observed using other sampling strategies. At the scale of the transect, the various biogeochemical parameters displayed independent behaviors, while at the submesoscale, there was a coherent covariance of these variables, especially in the frontal zone. Nearisopycnal tongues of elevated fluorescence and oxygen concentration were recorded down to a depth of 180 m and are the likely signature of a converging horizontal and downwelled water flow. Local anomalies in a horizontal section well below the mixed-layer depth are likely representative of downwelled waters from the euphotic layer. Intrusions of elevated CDOM concentrations together with signatures of smaller particles are the likely features of a local divergence and upwelled waters from subjacent aphotic layers. These are particularly apparent in the form of local anomalies in a horizontal section within the mixed layer. Similar tongues were observed in data from subsequent glider deployments. Such biogeochemical signatures enable the identification of upward and downward physical motions not observed by other technologies, reinforcing the need for coupled high-resolution physical-biogeochemical studies, not only for investigating biogeochemical processes themselves but also for resolving physical processes at these scales.
