  • An Interdisciplinary approach towards understanding late Pleistocene ice sheet change

    Creator:
    Cuzzone, Joshua K.
    Abstract:
    The results presented in this dissertation address a number of questions regarding late Pleistocene and Holocene ice-sheet and climate interactions, spanning disciplines involving paleoclimatology and atmospheric science. These studies use various techniques in geochemistry, climate modeling, and ice-sheet modeling to address ice- sheet response to climate and the attendant interactions...

  • Intra-seasonal sea level variability along the west coast of India

    Creator:
    Dhage, Laxmikant
    Abstract:
    The importance of local versus distant forcing is studied for the wind driven intra- seasonal (30-120 day) sea level anomaly (SLA) variations along the west coast of India. Three locations on the continental slope are chosen to represent the west coast. Two more locations, one east of Sri-Lanka and another...

  • Simulating extreme total water levels using a time-dependent, extreme value approach

    Creator:
    Serafin, Katherine A.
    Abstract:
    Coastal flood hazard zones and the design of coastal defenses are often devised using either the maximum recorded total water level (TWL) or a 'design' event such as the 100-year return-level flood, usually projected from observed extreme events. Despite technological advances driving more consistent instrumental records of wave heights and...
