Estuaries in Motion : Teaching Estuarine Flow Concepts through Video

Creator:

Cameron, Marina R.

Abstract:

A short (approximately 8 minute) video was created to explain key concepts in estuarine flow and numerical modeling of estuaries for high school students. Animation, real picture videography, and numerical model outputs were used to illustrate how scientists use physics and physics models to understand how flow in an estuary...

Observations on the evolution of shoaling nonlinear internal waves in Massachusetts Bay using shipboard X-band radar

Creator:

Nelson, Brian G.

Abstract:

During four cruises in July and September of 2008 and 2009, the shipboard X-band radar was tuned to detect the modulated bands of surface roughness caused by converging and diverging currents associated with high-frequency nonlinear internal wave (NLIW) packets. The data collected was used to quantify the propagation direction (ϴp),...
