The effects of wind forcing on coastal ocean circulation are studied using a
numerical modeling approach. The first region of interest is on the North Carolina
shelf, where the Coastal Ocean Processes (CoOP) Inner Shelf Study (ISS) took place
during August - November 1994. ISS observations are used to initialize,...
By implementing a series of mass-conserving nested high-resolution models down to approximately 1 km resolution that have realistic bathymetry, coastline, wind forcing and river run-off, the winter 1996-1997 shelf flow near Cape Mendocino, California, is simulated and compared with available observations from the Strata Formation on Margins (STRATAFORM) marine geology...
The mesoscale circulation in the Gulf of California is investigated using a numerical model (Princeton Ocean Model). Forced by satellite-derived winds, the circulation in the gulf shows a complex pattern dominated in the southern gulf by multiple eddies. Near the coast and in most of the north gulf, the circulation...
Investigations were conducted to determine whether the low molecular weight nitrogen compounds and the extra protein complex of bovine psoas major muscle were altered during a 12-day aging period.
Electrophoretic studies of soluble proteins either before or after gel filtration on Sephadex G-25 columns indicated that the soluble proteins were...
This investigation explored how the magnitude, style, and frequency of
channel adjustments vary spatially and over time within a 5th-order mountain
watershed. Historical data sets, including repeated cross section surveys spanning up
to 20 years at five sites on 2nd to 5th-order channels and streamflow records spanning
up to 50...
