Towed observations of internal waves in the upper ocean

Creator:

Spoering, Thomas James

Abstract:

Observations between 20 and 40 m depth were made with a towed thermostor chain in the North Pacific. Despite the rapid vertical variation of buoyancy frequency, spectra of isotherm displacements are in fair agreement with other observations and with the Garrett-Munk model. The spectra show evidence of a shoulder and...

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...

The cross-equatorial structure of tropical instability waves in sea surface height

Creator:

Lyman, John M.

Abstract:

A linearized model with two vertical modes has been developed to understand observed characteristics of monthly variability in the Equatorial Pacific from TOPEX/POSEIDON measurements of Sea Surface Height (SSH). The 2-mode model is obtained from an equatorial beta plane model that has been linearized about a geostrophically balanced mean flow...

Field validation of a nearshore circulation model for alongshore-nonuniform flows

Creator:

Wilson, Gregory W.

Abstract:

We investigate, theoretically and experimentally, the problem of modeling depth-integrated (2DH) surf zone circulation on an alongshore-nonuniform natural beach, with waves approaching from an arbitrary angle. An approximate theoretical model is developed, which captures the important effect of advection in the alongshore dynamics, and shows that a nondimensional parameter Re[subscript]s...
