  • The influence of stratification on plume structure

    Creator:
    Frick, Walter Eugen
    Abstract:
    In plume theory it is generally assumed that a plume issuing from a round source maintains a round cross section throughout. The consequences of this hypothesis are significant; this fact should motivate research into its validity.

  • Prediction of Initial Mixing for Municipal Ocean Discharges

    Creator:
    Teeter, Allan M. and Baumgartner, D. J.
    Abstract:
    The purpose of this report is to present procedures by which applicants and reviewers can calculate initial dilution and describe the zone of initial dilution surrounding the discharge site. These calculations would be required under regulations proposed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency on April 25, 1978 (1) implementing section...
