Distributed temperature data are used as input and
as calibration data for an energy based temperature model
of a first order stream in Luxembourg. A DTS (Distributed
Temperature Sensing) system with a fiber optic cable of
1500m was used to measure stream water temperature with
1m resolution each 2 min....
Radio astronomy allows observations of unique objects and phenomena relating to the electric and magnetic fields of celestial objects. Radio astronomy can be preformed at any time of day and is less beholden to atmospheric conditions than optical astronomy. A radio telescope designed to receive radiation at 1.421 GHz, the...
Microcomputers are being used in teaching and learning
mathematics. This paper examines ways that computers can be used
to enhance teaching in precalculus mathematics. The advantages of
computers discussed are: 1) instant access to graphs, 2) examples
that are not oversimplified to make computations manageable, 3)
encouragement of hypothesizing and...
In his works, A Portrait of the Artist as a Young Man (1916) and Ulysses
(1922), James Joyce demonstrates what he perceives to be the paralyzing effects of
those institutionalized religions that sit at the center of cultures. Drawing on Michel
Foucault's analysis of institutional dressage as well as his...
During the Internal Waves on the Continental Margin (IWAVES) field experiments of 1996 and 1997 off of Mission Beach, California (32.75° N), we observed energetic, dirunal-band motions across the entire study site in water depths ranging from 15 to 500 m and spanning a cross-shore distance of 15 km. The...
We give a detailed description of the semidiurnal-band current and temperature
variability observed during the Internal Waves on the Continental Margin (IWAVES) field
experiments of 1996 and 1997 off of Mission Beach, California. This variability was
dominated by the internal tide, and the structure of the internal tide on the...
