Turbulence in the nocturnal boundary layer with light and variable winds

Creator:: Mahrt, L., Richardson, Scott, Seaman, Nelson, and Stauffer, David
Abstract:: Turbulence quantities are analyzed from nine months of data collected on the floor of a valley where nocturnal cold pools are frequent. Often the speed of the vector-averaged wind over the night is less than 0.5 m s−1 (near-calm winds) with no preference for wind direction. The quantity of such...

Numerical Prediction of Submesoscale Flow in the Nocturnal Stable Boundary Layer over Complex Terrain

Creator:: Seaman, Nelson L., Gaudet, Brian J., Stauffer, David R., Mahrt, Larry, Richardson, Scott J., Zielonka, Jeffrey R., and Wyngaard, John C.
Abstract:: Numerical weather prediction models often perform poorly for weakly forced, highly variable winds in nocturnal stable boundary layers (SBLs). When used as input to air-quality and dispersion models, these wind errors can lead to large errors in subsequent plume forecasts. Finer grid resolution and improved model numerics and physics can...

Lower and Middle Devonian carbonate-platform and outer-shelf-basin deposits flanking Railroad Valley, Nevada

Creator:: Nelson, Storr L.
Abstract:: Lower and Middle Devonian strata crop out on the former stable carbonate platform that existed in the Quinn Canyon Range, through the carbonate shelf edge in the Pancake Range, to the carbonate slope and outer-shelf basin in the Reveille Range. The strata of the Reveille Range record a transition from...

PriharDouglasW1988.pdf

Creator:: Prihar, Douglas W.
Abstract:: The Seaman Gulch area is located approximately 20 miles east of Redding, California and is part of the eastern Klamath lithotectonic belt. Rock units of the area are chiefly mafic and silicic volcanics of island arc affinity and shale that are Permian to Triassic in age. Volcanic rocks of Tertiary...

Spatial and temporal movement patterns of wintering Dunlin (Calidris alpina) and Killdeer (Charadrius vociferus) in the Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Sanzenbacher, Peter M.
Abstract:: Avian movement behavior provides insight on patterns of regional and local fidelity, habitat and resource requirements, the scale at which individuals perceive the landscape, and the relative influence of the spatial array of resources. Shorebirds (suborder: Charadrii) are a diverse and mobile group of wetland associated species. Large numbers of...

Coastal Perturbations of Marine-Layer Winds, Wind Stress, and Wind Stress Curl along California and Baja California in June 1999

Creator:: Koracin, Darko, Dorman, Clive E., and Dever, Edward P.
Abstract:: Month-long simulations using the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University–National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model (MM5) with a horizontal resolution of 9 km have been used to investigate perturbations of topographically forced wind stress and wind stress curl during upwelling-favorable winds along the California and Baja California coasts during June 1999....

Evidence of biological activity in Hawaiian subsurface basalts

Creator:: Fisk, Martin R., Storrie-Lombardi, M. C., Douglas, S., Popa, R., McDonald, G., and Di Meo-Savoie, C.
Abstract:: The Hawaii Scientific Drilling Program (HSDP) cored and recovered igneous rock from the surface to a depth of 3109 m near Hilo, Hawaii. Much of the deeper parts of the hole is composed of hyaloclastite (fractured basalt glass that has been cemented in situ with secondary minerals). Some hyaloclastite units...
