Compared to Syracuse's average snowfall of 116. 9 inches, or nearly 10 feet per year, New York City's annual snow average is a relatively small 2-3 feet per year in the city and about 3-4 feet per year in nearby suburbs due to the oceanic influence keeping much of the precipitation as rain in the winter.

The islands had no native trees when discovered but there is some ambiguous evidence of past forestation, that may be due to wood being transported by oceanic currents from Patagonia.

Ptolemy's maps, which became well known in Europe during the Renaissance, did not actually depict such a continent, but they did show an Africa which had no southern oceanic boundary ( and which therefore might extend all the way to the South Pole ), and also raised the possibility that the Indian Ocean was entirely enclosed by land.

When the Piemont-Liguria oceanic crust had completely subducted beneath the Apulian plate in the Paleocene, the Briançonnais microcontinent, according to some a piece of the Iberian plate, arrived at the subduction zone.

The Earth has probably always had some form of basaltic crust, but the age of the oldest oceanic crust today is only about 200 million years.

At the end of the latter, the oceanic food web had undergone a period of upheaval due to extinction of considerable numbers of marine species ; subsequently, the spread of marine mammals seems to have prevented seabirds from reaching their erstwhile diversity.

The same rocket that launched Sputnik could send a nuclear warhead anywhere in the world in a matter of minutes, breaching the oceanic moat that had successfully protected the continental United States from attack during both World Wars.

Thus, it became widely accepted that ophiolites represent oceanic crust that had been emplaced on land.

Romain Rolland described the mystical states achieved by Ramakrishna and other mystics as an "' oceanic ' sentiment ", one which Rolland had also experienced.

Freud categorizes the oceanic feeling as being a regression into an earlier state of consciousness before the ego had differentiated itself from the world of objects.

As the continental plates drifted northward, the currents gradually changed, and by 20 mya the window for oceanic dispersal had closed, effectively isolating the lemurs and the rest of the terrestrial Malagasy fauna from mainland Africa.

They showed that animal life existed down to depths of 650 fathoms ( 1200 m ), that all marine invertebrate groups are present at this depth, and that deep-sea temperatures are not as constant as had been supposed, but vary considerably, and indicate oceanic circulation.

A few days earlier, he had known that he was close to the land because the colour of the water had changed ; it was no longer the oceanic deep blue.

In 1928, the Ontario Surveyor General named a number of lakes in the northwest of the province to honour aviators who had perished during 1927, mainly in attempting oceanic flights.

However, it is thought that it was basaltic in composition, like today's oceanic crust, because little crustal differentiation had yet taken place.

The same magnetic anomalies were found over most of the world's oceans, which permitted estimates for when most of the oceanic crust had developed.

On September 28, the coast guard vessel was retasked to assist the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration in repairing the network of weather buoys along the Gulf of Mexico and Atlantic coasts of the United States, which had been severely damaged by the 2005 Atlantic hurricane season ; these buoys are one of the most important tools for forecasting and gathering data from oceanic storms.

Carousel feeding has only been documented in the Norwegian killer whale population and with some oceanic dolphin species.

Like other oceanic trenches, the Mariana Trench has been proposed as a site for nuclear waste disposal, in the hope that tectonic plate subduction occurring at the site might eventually push the nuclear waste deep into the Earth's mantle.

Many salts of sodium are highly water-soluble, and their sodium has been leached by the action of water so that chloride and sodium are the most common dissolved elements by weight in the Earth's bodies of oceanic water.

The two islands are oceanic islands which have always been separate from mainland West Africa and so there is a relatively low diversity of species, restricted to those that have managed to cross the sea to the islands.

* In reservoirs of anaerobic and low-oxygen life powered by chemicals in deep oceanic hydrothermal vents surviving in Earth's deep oceans and crust ; but photosynthesis would not have been possible there.

Geochemical evidence from rocks associated with low-latitude glacial deposits have been interpreted to show a crash in oceanic life during the glacials.

* ' Snowball Earth ' theory melted BBC News online ( 2002-03-06 ) report on findings by geoscientists at the University of St Andrews, Scotland that casts doubt on the Snowball Earth hypothesis due to evidence of sedimentary material, which could only have been derived from floating ice on open oceanic waters.

The great local mountain Mount Diablo has been formed and continues to be elevated by compressive forces resulting from the action of plate tectonics and at its upper reaches presents ancient seabed rocks scraped from distant oceanic sedimentation locations and accumulated and lifted by these great forces.

Ophiolites are an assemblage of rocks which belong to a portion of the oceanic lihosphere which have been overthrusted onto the continent during the process of obduction.

There are many examples of oceanic crustal rocks and deeper mantle rocks that have been obducted and exposed at the surface worldwide.

In some places, mixtures of older intrusive rocks and the original oceanic rocks have been distorted and warped under intense heat, weight and stress to create unusual swirled patters known as migmatite, appearing to have been nearly melted in the procedure.

Most of Panthalassa's oceanic basin and crust has been subducted under the North American plate, and the Eurasian Plate.

An ophiolite () is a section of the Earth's oceanic crust and the underlying upper mantle that has been uplifted and exposed above sea level and often emplaced onto continental crustal rocks.

This definition has been challenged recently because new studies of oceanic crust by the Integrated Ocean Drilling Program and other research cruises have shown that in situ ocean crust can be quite variable, and that in places volcanic rocks sit directly on peridotite tectonite, with no intervening gabbros.

Several species have also colonised some oceanic islands, and two species have been introduced to New Zealand.

Special features include pillow basalts, which are formed when molten lava flows into water and a hard outer crust forms, making a puffy, pillow shaped feature ; as well as an ophiolite sequence, which is a distinct sequence of rocks indicating that a section of oceanic crust has been uplifted and thrust onto a continental area.

Vagrants have been recorded on oceanic islands, such as Chuuk and Yap in the Federated States of Micronesia, the Marianas and Palau ; the bird recorded on Yap on February 25, 1991, was from a continental Asian rather than from a Melanesian population, while the origin of the bird seen on Palau on May 3, 2005 was not clear.

Methane-driven oceanic eruptions have also been shown to have caused smaller mass extinction events.

Over 80 % of the heathlands that once covered extensive areas of southern Britain have been lost, with similar losses on the near continent where the remaining lowland heathland of oceanic temperate regions occurs.

The passage is known to have been closed until around 41 million years ago according to a chemical study of fish teeth found in oceanic sedimentary rock.

Other elements, e. g. Osmium, have been suggested to be tracers of material arising from near to the Earth's core, in basalts at oceanic islands.

Two submarines of the United States Navy have been named USS Tunny, for the tunny, any of several oceanic fishes resembling the mackerel.

Monterey Cypress has been widely cultivated away from its native range, both elsewhere along the California coast, and in other areas with similar cool summer, mild winter oceanic climates.
