On forced currents over a continental margin : theory and analysis

Creator:

Denbo, D. W.

Resource Type:

Dissertation
On dispersive continental shelf waves generated by alongshore variations in bottom topography

Creator:

Martell, C. Michael

Resource Type:

Masters Thesis
On coastal trapped waves at low latitudes in a stratified ocean

Creator:

Romea, Richard Dennis

Abstract:

The response on the continental shelf of a baroclinic ocean to driving by an alongshore coastal wind stress and by barotropic and baroclinic wind forced interior motions is studied as a function of latitude. The relative excitation of continental shelf waves and internal Kelvin waves is studied. The response of...

Dissertation
Swash zone sediment suspension and transport

Creator:

Puleo, Jack A.

Abstract:

Swash zone processes are of significant importance to foreshore morphologic change. This thesis addresses the importance of the uprush and backwash fluid motions and flow duration effects to the resulting sediment transport. The analysis relates the field observations to well known sediment transport formulations as well as investigates the importance...

Masters Thesis
The large-scale coastal wind field and sea level response along the west coast of North America

Creator:

Halliwell, George R.

Resource Type:

Dissertation
Numerical model investigations of wind-driven coastal circulation

Creator:

Cervantes, Brandy T.

Abstract:

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,...

Resource Type:

Dissertation
Modeling studies of the coastal circulation off northern California

Creator:

Pullen, Julie D.

Abstract:

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...

Dissertation
Modeling studies of mesoscale circulation in the Gulf of California

Creator:

Martínez Alcalá, José Antonio

Abstract:

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...
