Turbulence and biophysical fluxes in the near surface ocean

Creator:: Hoecker-Martínez, Martín
Abstract:: Vertical transports of plankton, momentum, heat, and turbulence are modeled. A novel integration of high resolution turbulence and biophysical modeling is used to show the influence of a Kelvin-Helmholtz instability on the vertical migration of simple gyrotactic organisms. A viscous limit on mixing driven by shear turbulence is proposed. Large...

Turbulence in sheared, salt-fingering favorable environment

Creator:: Kimura, Satoshi
Abstract:: Instability and turbulence in sheared, salt-fingering favorable stratification are studied using three-dimensional direct numerical simulations (DNS). Salt-fingering favorable stratification is gravitationally stable, because the unstable vertical gradient of salinity is stabilized by temperature (warm, salty over cool, fresh water-masses). Salt-fingering instability can occur at the interface of these different water-masses....

Mooring observations from the Hawaiian Ridge : August 2002 - June 2003 : a component of the Hawaii Ocean Mixing Experiment (HOME) Nearfield Program

Creator:: Boyd, Timothy John, 1958-2013, Levine, Murray D., Gard, Steve R., Waldorf, Walt, Oregon State University. College of Oceanic and Atmospheric Sciences, and Hawaii Ocean Mixing Experiment Survey Program
Abstract:: This report documents the observations of velocity, temperature and conductivity made from moorings deployed in the Kauai Channel on the ridge extending NW from Oahu, Hawaii. Two moorings (Al, Bl) were deployed in August 2002 for three months and one mooring (A2) was redeployed in November 2002 for seven months...

Mooring observations from the Hawaiian ridge : November 2000 - January 2002 : a component of the Hawaii Ocean Mixing Experiment (HOME) Survey Program

Creator:: Boyd, Timothy John, 1958-2013, Levine, Murray D., Gard, Steve R., and Waldorf, Walt
Abstract:: This report documents the observations of velocity, temperature and conductivity made from two moorings deployed in the Kauai Channel on the ridge extending NW from Oahu, Hawaii. The moorings were deployed in November 2000 for two months as part of the Hawaii Ocean Mixing Experiment (HOME) Survey Program.

Decomposition of absorption coefficients and decorrelation lengthscales of hydrographic and inherent optical properties in the Middle Atlantic Bight

Creator:: Simeon, Jennifer J.
Abstract:: This investigation is an exploration of the use of inherent optical properties towards further elucidation of coastal circulation processes occurring on the continental shelf and slope in the Middle Atlantic Bight, south of Cape Cod Massachusetts, during 14-Aug to 1-Sep 1996 and 25-Apr to 15-May 1997. Assessing the possibility of...

SeaSoar spectral light absorption and attenuation observations during the coastal mixing and optics experiment : R/V Endeavor cruises from 14-Aug to 1-Sep 1996 and 25-Apr to 15-May 1997

Creator:: Simeon, Jennifer J., Barth, J. A., Bogucki, D. J., Erofeev, A., O'Malley, R., and Pierce, S. D.
Abstract:: This data report includes documentation of the Coastal Mixing and Optics (CMO) Experiment inherent optical property surveys on the continental shelf and slope in the Mid-Atlantic Bight south of Cape Cod, Massachusettes, USA. The surveys were conducted aboard the R/V Endeavor during two physical oceanography cruises: E9608 (14 August to...

SeaSoar CTD observations during the coastal mixing and optics experiment : R/V Endeavor cruises from 14-Aug to 1-Sep 1996 and 25-Apr to 15-May 1997

Creator:: O'Malley, Robert T., Barth, John A., Erofeev, Anatoli Y., Fleischbein, Jane, Kosro, P. Michael, 1951-, and Pierce, Stephen D.
Abstract:: Two physical oceanography cruises on the R/V Endeavor were conducted by the co-PIs Jack Barth and Mike Kosro as part of the ONR-sponsored Coastal Mixing and Optics (CMO) Accelerated Research Initiative. The objective was to rapidly survey a region around 40.5N, 70.5W where a set of moorings and a stationary...

MicroSoar microstructure observations during the coastal mixing and optics experiment : R/V Endeavor cruises from 14-Aug to 1-Sep 1996 and from 25-Apr to 15-May 1997

Creator:: Erofeev, Anatoli Y., Dillon, Thomas M., Barth, John A., and May, G. H.
Abstract:: Small-scale turbulence is a random phenomenon, and theoretical relationships about turbulent processes are often only crude approximations. There are relatively few accurate statements that can be made about a turbulent flow without recourse to experimental evidence from flow itself (Tennekes and Lumley, 1972). In the atmosphere, turbulent flows are relatively...
