A turbulence model applied to the diurnal cycle

Creator:: Halliwell, Vicki M.
Abstract:: Under light wind conditions, the alternation of daytime heating and nighttime cooling creates a characteristic response in the oceanic boundary layer known as the diurnal cycle. The Mellor/Yamada Level II turbulence closure model is used to analyze this response pattern. The diurnal cycle has three phases. During morning and early...

The role of inertial oscillations in the dynamics of coastal upwelling

Creator:: Pelegri, Jose L.
Abstract:: A finite difference scheme is employed to solve the integral form of the momentum, continuity and heat equations, for a two layer ocean bounded by a coastline. The momentum equations include the turbulent dynamics and the time-dependent and nonlinear terms in both the cross-shelf and alongshelf directions. The system of...

Diet selection by conditioned and unconditioned goats in the sagebrush steppe of Eastern Oregon

Creator:: Richman, Lesley M.
Abstract:: This research examined the diets of angora goats on a sagebrush bunchgrass rangeland. Research objectives were to 1) determine the effects of a positive conditioning method on both mature and immature angora goats; and 2) to quantify plant selection and provide preliminary information as to the potential for using goats...

A quantitative index for evaluation of plant layout alternatives

Creator:: Pond, James Woodrow Jr.
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is to develop a workable plant layout evaluation technique incorporating adequate definitive measures of intangible plant layout considerations. A summary and critique is given of existing evaluation methods. A quantitative evaluation index (QEI) is proposed to remedy the described deficiencies. The proposed index can be...

Industrial adjustments in American Managerial techniques for developing countries

Creator:: Andrade, Hernan Miguel
Abstract:: The purpose of this study is twofold; first, to describe and analyze the most significant problems encountered by managers of manufacturing plants in developing countries. American managerial techniques are taken as basis of comparison. Second, to suggest approaches and points of view which can be useful to managers and students...

The effect of a horticultural therapy program on cerebral palsied children

Creator:: Ackley, Donald R.
Abstract:: Horticultural therapy is the use of plants and plant-related activities as an adjunct therapy assisting medical, psychological and other rehabilitative therapies in the improvement of physical and mental health. Although long associated with having a beneficial effect upon people characterized as mentally ill, mentally deficient, socially maladapted and physically disabled,...

Interannual and interdecadal variability in the timing and strength of the spring transitions along the United States west coast

Creator:: Bilbao, Pablo A.
Abstract:: Past studies of the Oregon and Washington coast have shown a rapid change in the coastal ocean conditions with the onset of upwelling in spring. This process, called the spring transition marks the change from winter to summer conditions along the west coast of Unites States. To examine the interannual...
