Jeanette Expedition (1879-1881) financed by Gordon Bennett, owner of the New
York Herald, to obtain an interesting story for his newspaper and aimed at
searching for Nordenskiold and the Vega and at reaching the North Pole
using the warm Kuroshio current as far north as Wrangelland, at that time
thought to be part of Greenland, and from there overland farther north. The
Jeanette became stuck in the ice at 71 0 N and drifted unintentionally for two
years as far North as 77 0 N, where she was crushed by the ice. Only few survived and reached the Lena delta after a long voyage on ice that drifted in the
wrong direction. After three years the wreckage from the Jeanette reached the
shores of Greenland, proving the existence of an Arctic Ocean instead of land
under the North Pole. This brought F. Nansen to the idea of the Fram Expedition.
jellyfish free-swimming medusoid stage of Cnidaria, ~medusa.
JOIDES (Joint Oceanographic Institutions for Deep Earth Sampling) a formal
agreement signed in 1964 by five of the United States oceanographic institutions to cooperate in deep-sea drilling. It is the intent that JOIDES prepares and proposes drilling programs in trust for the entire scientific community. Under the auspices of JOIDES the Deep-Sea Drilling Project (DSDP) started in 1968. The aim was to drill the oceanic crust in waters down to 6000 m
for scientific purposes and he results have proved amazingly successful.
Jurassic ~geological time scale.
juvenile the life stage between larval stage and the adult stage, characterized by
the absence of a reproductive capacity.
juvenile water at the beginning of the 20th century the terms juvenile, connate,
metamorphic, and meteoric water were applied to define the different kinds
of water coming from the interior of the earth in springs and volcanic gases.
Juvenile water has never been part of the hydrological cycle on the surface
of the earth. When lithification of sediments sets in, interstitial water is called
connate water, and when metamorphosis occurs it is called metamorphic water.
Meteoric water is water of recent atmospheric origin. No absolute criteria
exist to discriminate between these kinds of waters. The total amount of
water from volcanic sources alone could fill the oceans in about 100 million
years; therefore only a very small part of this volcanic water can be juvenile.
It is questionable if juvenile water has ever been found.
