A series of automated tests is developed for tower and aircraft time series to identify instrumentation problems, flux sampling problems, and physically plausible but unusual situations. The automated procedures serve as ...

Water transient storage zones are hotspots for metabolic activity in streams although the contribution of different types of transient storage zones to the whole-reach metabolic activity is difficult to quantify. In this ...

The extent to which the climate will change due to an external forcing depends largely on radiative feedbacks, which act to amplify or damp the surface temperature response. There are a variety of issues that complicate ...

In the past, classification systems for the analysis of morphodynamic variability have been developed in an attempt to understand large scale coastal behavior. The motivation behind the creation of these classification s ...

Observations of oppositely directed, monthly mean alongshore currents and wind stress over the continental margin off the Pacific coast of North America motivate the theoretical examination of mean flow generation by top ...

A time-dependent, spectral, barotropic model and a similar two-layer primitive equation model are developed to investigate the planetary-scale wave responses to various types of large-scale forcing: vorticity and heat ...

Simultaneous measurements of vertical velocity fluctuations, w′, and temperature fluctuations, T′, on scales of three-dimensional turbulence yield a direct measure of the turbulent heat flux, J[subscript]q. The scales co ...
