Predicting deep water breaking wave severity

Creator:: Hovland, Justin
Abstract:: Ocean Wave Energy Converters (WECs) operating on the water surface are subject to storms and other extreme events. In particular, high and steep waves, especially breaking waves, are likely the most dangerous to WECs. A method for quantifying the breaking severity of waves is presented and applied to wave data...

A biomechanical and physiological comparison of deep-water running styles

Creator:: Killgore, Garry L.
Abstract:: Purpose: The purpose of this investigation was to identify a deep-water running (DWR) style that most closely approximates terrestrial running. Methods: Twenty healthy male and female intercollegiate (NCAA III) distance runners were videotaped from the right sagittal view while running on a treadmill (TR) and in deep water at 55-60%...

Finite amplitude deep water waves : a comparison of theoretical and experimental kinematics and dynamics

Creator:: Jensen, Robert E.
Abstract:: Problems associated with quantification of deep water wave kinematics and dynamics are examined. Summaries of Stokes' theory and Dean's stream function theory are reported. A computer algorithm is developed to solve the hydrodynamic characteristics for Stokes' fifth and third order and linear theories. Tests are initiated to verify the results...

A review of the deep water Liparidae from the coast of Oregon and adjacent waters

Creator:: Stein, David L.
Abstract:: Descriptions and distributions are given of 28 species of Liparidae occurring or possibly occurring below 200 m between San Francisco and northern Vancouver Island, with keys for their identifications. Nine genera are included: Careproctus, Elassodiscus, Lipariscus, Nectoliparis, Rhinoliparis, Acantholiparis, Paraliparis, and two new genera are described, Odontoliparis and Osteodiscus. Eight...

δ¹³C record of Upper North Atlantic Deep Water during the past 2.6 million years

Creator:: Oppo, D. W., Raymo, M. E., Lohmann, G. P., Mix, Alan C., Wright, J. D., and Prell, W. L.
Abstract:: Benthic foraminiferal δ¹³C data from site 502 in the Caribbean Sea (sill depth 1800 m) indicate that throughout the past 2.6 m.y., glacial δ¹³C values in the middepth Atlantic were higher during glaciations than interglaciations. This is interpreted as indicating a greater proportion of Upper North Atlantic Deep Water (UNADW)...

Millennial-scale deep water oscillations: Reflections of the North Atlantic in the deep Pacific from 10 to 60 ka

Creator:: Lund, David C. and Mix, Alan C.
Abstract:: Northeast Pacific benthic foraminiferal δ¹⁸O and δ¹³C reveal repeated millennial-scale events of strong deep-sea ventilation (associated with nutrient depletion and/or high gas exchange) during stadial (cool, high ice volume) episodes from 10 to 60 ka, opposite the pattern in the deep North Atlantic. Two climate mechanisms may explain this pattern....

Biogenic and terrigenous sedimetations at Ceara rise, western tropical Altantic, supports Pliocene - Pleistocene deep - water linkage between hemispheres

Creator:: Harris, Sara E., Mix, Alan C., and King, Terri
Abstract:: Calcium carbonate percentages at five Ceara Rise sites were estimated at 1- to 2-k.y. intervals over the past 5 m.y., using reflectance spectroscopy and magnetic susceptibility proxies. From these estimates and detailed correlations between sites, gradients of calcite and terrigenous sediment accumulation rates in a depth transect of sites reveal...

Development and Analysis of Higher-order Nonlinear Wavemaker Theory for Intermediate to Deep-water Waves Based on Inverse Scattering Transform

Creator:: Mohtat, Ali
Abstract:: The modeling and analysis of laboratory-generated nonlinear intermediate- to deep-water wave fields, using existing wavemaker theories and analysis tools, is one of the most challenging tasks in ocean science and engineering. On one hand, harmonics function (sine and cosine) -based wavemaker theories result in an inherent (linear) instability of the...
