Use of benthic sediments as indicators of marina flushing

Creator:

Noble, Scott Morgan

Abstract:

This report presents the findings of a sediment analysis program formulated to determine the flushing potential of various shaped small boat marina basins. Chemical tests regarding volatile solids, Kjeldahl nitrogen, grease and oil, and sulfides were performed with the results compared to established sediment quality criteria. These results were used...

Wave field patterns generated by wave energy converters

Creator:

McNatt, J. Cameron

Abstract:

The eventual deployment of wave energy converters (WECs) on a commercial scale will necessitate the grouping of devices into arrays or "wave farms," in order to minimize overhead costs of mooring, maintenance, installation, and electrical cabling for shoreward power delivery. Closely spaced WECs will interact hydrodynamically through diffracted and radiated...

Ensemble-based data assimilation and depth inversion on the Kootenai River, ID, USA

Creator:

Landon, Kyle C.

Abstract:

Velocity measurements from drifter GPS records are assimilated and used in an ensemble-based inversion technique to extract the river bathymetry. The method is tested on a deep meandering reach and a shallow braided reach of the Kootenai River in Idaho, USA. The Regional Ocean Modeling System (ROMS) is used to...
