Creator:: Sanchez-Rios, Alejandra
Abstract:: The focus of this dissertation is the analysis of submesoscale and finescale features measured at oceanic fronts and the role they play in the transport of heat and salt. Two different geographical areas were used to analyze this transport: one, an area on the western side of the North Atlantic...

Creator:: Thomas, Jennifer A.
Abstract:: Internal waves and tides are a dominant source of current variability, and they are intermittent and hard to predict.

For example, while alongshore-propagating superinertial internal tides...

Creator:: Konrad, Kevin
Abstract:: The Kane Oceanic Core Complex (OCC) is a valuable window into crustal architecture and chemical composition of the lithosphere beneath a slow-spreading ocean ridge.

Creator:: Bradshaw, Richard W., 1985-
Abstract:: In volcanic systems, magma is generally stored in the shallow crust prior to eruption.

In this dissertation I present four studies that investigate the storage conditions of a number...
