Vertical Coastal Trapped Wave Propagation Produced by a Subsurface Ridge

Creator:: Dhage, Laxmikant
Abstract:: The vertical propagation of Coastal Trapped Waves (CTWs) due to subsurface ridges is explored with the help of linear numerical and analytical models. Results show that submerged ridges projecting from the shoreline can scatter a horizontally propagating single baroclinic mode Kelvin wave into both upward and downward propagating Kelvin wave...

The Genetics of Larval Fitness in the Pacific Oyster: Responses to Acidified Seawater and Temporally Dynamic Selection Processes

Creator:: Durland, Evan R.
Abstract:: The Pacific Oyster (Crassostrea gigas) is one of the most economically and ecologically significant shellfish species worldwide. In the Pacific Northwest United States (PNW), the sustainability oyster stocks is increasingly threatened by ocean acidification (OA), which has had significant negative effects on the aquaculture industry in this region over the...

Intra-seasonal sea level variability along the west coast of India

Creator:: Dhage, Laxmikant
Abstract:: The importance of local versus distant forcing is studied for the wind driven intra- seasonal (30-120 day) sea level anomaly (SLA) variations along the west coast of India. Three locations on the continental slope are chosen to represent the west coast. Two more locations, one east of Sri-Lanka and another...

"They called me the hyacinth girl" : T. S. Eliot, masculinity, and the Great War

Creator:: Query, Patrick
Abstract:: This thesis traces the relationship between the First World War, constructions of masculinity, and the life and poetry of T.S. Eliot. Central to this relationship is a study of homoeroticism, which the author characterizes as different from homosexuality but not exclusive of it, in late 19th and early 20th century...

The role of costimulation and adjuvants in the development of T cell effector and memory responses

Creator:: Maxwell, Joseph R.
Abstract:: T cells are one of the key cells in the immune system. Although they are not the first line of defense against a pathogen, their functions can greatly enhance the phagocytosis and destruction of pathogens as well as the development of antibody responses. Furthermore, even when responding T cells have...

Wavenumber–Frequency Spectra of Inertia–Gravity and Mixed Rossby–Gravity Waves in the Equatorial Pacific Ocean

Creator:: Farrar, J. Thomas and Durland, Theodore S.
Abstract:: In the 1970s and 1980s, there was considerable interest in near-equatorial variability at periods of days to weeks associated with oceanic equatorial inertia–gravity waves and mixed Rossby–gravity waves. At that time, the measurements available for studying these waves were much more limited than today: most of the available observations were...

The Wavenumber–Frequency Content of Resonantly Excited Equatorial Waves

Creator:: Durland, Theodore S. and Farrar, J. Thomas
Abstract:: The theoretical resonant excitation of equatorial inertia–gravity waves and mixed Rossby–gravity waves is examined. Contrary to occasionally published expectations, solutions show that winds that are broadband in both zonal wavenumber and frequency do not in general produce peaks in the wavenumber–frequency spectrum of sea surface height (SSH) at wavenumbers associated...

Testing for location after transformation to normality

Creator:: Halawa, Adel Mahmoud
Abstract:: In the problem of testing the median using a random sample from a certain distribution, and if no other parametric family is suggested, the t-test is known to be the optimal procedure when this distribution is normal. If the sample appears to be non-normal, one has the choice either to...

Energy and heat fluxes due to vertically propagating Yanai waves observed in the equatorial Indian Ocean

Creator:: Smyth, W. D., Durland, T. S., and Moum, J. N.
Abstract:: Shipboard current measurements in the equatorial Indian Ocean in October and November of 2011 revealed oscillations in the meridional velocity with amplitude ~0.10 m/s. These were clearest in a layer extending from ~300 to 600 m depth and had periods near 3 weeks. Phase propagation was upward. Measurements from two...

Testing of a Direct Current Machine

Creator:: Taggart, Durland Orville and McColl, Nelson Felde
Abstract:: Living now in an age where the steam engine in many localities soon will be a mere relic more than a useful mechanism with which to convert steam into useful energy. It is rapidly being replaced by the gas engine and the electric generator, in which the latter is thought...
