A satellite-derived climatology of global ocean winds

Creator:: Risien, Craig Miller
Abstract:: A satellite-derived Climatology of Global Ocean Winds (COGOW) on a 0.5° latitude by 0.5° latitude grid is presented based on 5-years (August 1999 July 2004) of measurements from the SeaWinds scatterometer that was launched on 19 June 1999 onboard the QuikSCAT satellite. SeaWinds is an active microwave radar that estimates...

Quality driven collaborative decision making for product development under the influence of trustworthiness

Creator:: Meier, Stefan
Abstract:: The focus of this study is the effective prioritization of customer requirements in collaborative product development. The CR priorities are often retrieved by questioning and interviewing targeted customers. But the targeted customer might not always be easily questioned, because they might not always be obvious or clearly known. If customers...

The Relationship between Winds, Surface Roughness, and Radar Backscatter at Low Incidence Angles from TRMM Precipitation Radar Measurements

Creator:: Freilich, Michael H. and Vanhoff, Barry A.
Abstract:: One year of collocated, rain-free normalized backscatter cross-section measurements from the Tropical Rainfall Mapping Mission (TRMM) precipitation radar (PR) and wind speed estimates from the TRMM Microwave Imager are used to construct fully empirical model functions relating cross section to wind speed for incidence angles from 0° (nadir) to 18°....

Gordon Michael Final Thesis.pdf

Creator:: Gordon, Michael Ian
Abstract:: Anaerobic digestion of lipid-extracted algal biomass has been proposed as a method to recover and recycle nutrients in algal biofuel systems. The purpose of this study was to quantify recoverable nitrogen and phosphorus from anaerobically digested C. vulgaris. Recoverable nutrients were deemed those present in the liquid phase of anaerobic...

Satellite Observations of the Wind Jets off the Pacific Coast of Central America. Part I: Case Studies and Statistical Characteristics

Creator:: Chelton, Dudley B., Freilich, Michael H., and Esbensen, Steven K.
Abstract:: Measurements of near-surface winds by the NASA scatterometer (NSCAT) from October 1996 through June 1997 are analyzed to investigate the three major wind jets along the Pacific coast of Central America that blow over the Gulfs of Tehuantepec, Papagayo, and Panama. Each jet is easily identifiable as locally intense offshore...

Role of morphologic feedback in surf zone sandbar response

Creator:: Plant, Nathaniel G., Freilich, Michael H., and Holman, Robert A.
Abstract:: Several aspects of feedback mechanisms associated with surf zone sandbar response have been characterized using bathymetric surveys, sampled approximately monthly over a 16-year period at the Army Corps of Engineers' Field Research Facility (North Carolina). The measured bathymetry was alongshore averaged and modeled by the superposition of two Gaussian-shaped sandbars...

Surface wind modification near mid-latitude ocean fronts : observational and dynamical analysis

Creator:: O'Neill, Larry W.
Abstract:: Interactions between surface winds and meanders in mid-latitude sea surface temperature (SST) fronts with horizontal length scales of 100-1000 km are investigated from satellite observations and numerical simulations. Observations from the Sea- Winds scatterometer on the QuikSCAT satellite show that the magnitude, direction, curl, and divergence of the surface wind...

On the Use of QuikSCAT Scatterometer Measurements of Surface Winds for Marine Weather Prediction

Creator:: Chelton, Dudley B., Freilich, Michael H., Sienkiewicz, Joseph M., and Von Ahn, Joan M.
Abstract:: The value of Quick Scatterometer (QuikSCAT) measurements of 10-m ocean vector winds for marine weather prediction is investigated from two Northern Hemisphere case studies. The first of these focuses on an intense cyclone with hurricane-force winds that occurred over the extratropical western North Pacific on 10 January 2005. The second...

Effects of MCNP Model Resolution on Predicting Water Equivalent Thickness of Nanocomposite Materials in High-Energy Proton Fields

Creator:: Freilich, Justina A. M.
Abstract:: Manned missions beyond low-Earth orbit present tremendous, multifaceted radiological challenges. The deep space radiation environment contains high-energy protons and heavy ions, which are not sufficiently shielded by the aluminum alloys that have historically been used in spacecraft. To address these shielding concerns, polymer-based nanocomposites have been proposed. Radiation transport simulations...
