Physical oceanography of continental shelves

Creator:: Allen, John S., Beardsley, Robert C., Blanton, J. O., Boicourt, William C., Butman, Bradford, Coachman, L. K., Huyer, Adriana, 1945-, Kinder, Thomas H., Royer, Thomas C., Schumacher, James D., Smith, Robert L., Sturges, W., and Winant, Clinton D.
Abstract:: Knowledge of the physical oceanography of continental shelves has increased tremendously in recent years, primarily as a result of new current and hydrographic measurements made in locations where no comparable measurements existed previously. In general, observations from geographically distinct continental shelves have shown that the nature of the flow may...

Albacore oceanography off Oregon : 1970

Creator:: Pearcy, William G.
Abstract:: During July 1970, albacore boats trolling surface jigs (jig boats) had record catches in an area off the mouth of the Columbia River. The jig fishery declined suddenly in late July and was poor throughout the remainder of the summer. No obvious oceanographic changes were correlated with these drastic changes...

The New Age of Hyperspectral Oceanography

Creator:: Chang, Grace, Mahoney, Kevin, Briggs-Whitmire, Amanda, Kohler, David, Mobley, Curtis, Lewis, Marlon, Moline, Mark, Boss, Emmanuel, Kim, Minsu, Philpot, William, and Dickey, Tommy
Abstract:: A multispectral optical sensor collects data at select wavebands or channels. An example is the Sea-viewing Wide-Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) ocean color satellite, which measures eight wavebands between 402 and 885 nm (20-40 nm bandwidth with peaks centered around 412, 443, 490, 510, 555, 670, 765, and 865 nm). Optical oceanographers...

Perturbation methods in geophysics and oceanography

Creator:: Lu, Richard Shih-Ming
Abstract:: The perturbation method is applied to solve two numerical problems in the earth sciences, viz., (l)the computation of deep sea currents in the coastal region of the northeast Pacific and (2) the interpretation of D.C. conduction data in exploration geophysics. The perturbation method is largely equivalent to the method of...

Parallel I/O requirements of four oceanography applications

Creator:: Oregon State University. Dept. of Computer Science and Moore, Jason Andrew
Abstract:: Brief descriptions of the I/O requirements for four production oceanography programs running at Oregon State University are presented. The applications all rely exclusively on array-oriented, sequential file operations. Persistent files are used for checkpointing and movie making, while temporary files are used to store out-of-core data.

Mathematical approaches to the physics of mesoscale oceanography

Creator:: Early, Jeffrey J.
Abstract:: The long-term evolution of Gaussian eddies is studied in an equivalent barotropic model using both linear and nonlinear quasi-geostrophic theory in an attempt to understand westward propagating satellite altimetry tracked mesoscale eddies. By examining both individual eddies and a large basin seeded with eddies, it is shown that long term...

The development of the chlorinity-salinity concept in oceanography

Creator:: Wallace, William J.
Abstract:: This study traces the historical foundations of the concept of constant ionic proportionality and the equation (Salinity [S%₀] = 1.805 Chlorinity [Cl%₀] + 0.030) which has been in general use in oceanography since 1902 until 1969 and which is based upon this constancy, The notion that the constituents present in...

A Parallel Algorithm for Variational Assimilation in Oceanography and Meteorology

Creator:: Bennett, Andrew F. and Baugh, Jerome R.
Abstract:: A parallel algorithm is described for variational assimilation of observations into oceanic and atmospheric models. The algorithm may be coded first for execution on a serial computer and then trivially modified for execution on a parallel computer such as the Intel iPSC/860. The speedup factor for parallel execution is roughly...
