Book Synopsis Internal Gravity Waves in the Shallow Seas by : Stanisław R. Massel
Download or read book Internal Gravity Waves in the Shallow Seas written by Stanisław R. Massel and published by Springer. This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 175 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book contains a comprehensive study of the internal ocean waves, which play a very important role in ocean physics providing mechanisms for ocean water mixing and circulation, as well as the transportation of gases, nutrients, and a very large number of marine organisms in the ocean body. In contrast to surface waves, the literature on internal waves is not so numerous, mainly due to the difficulties in experimental data collection and in the mathematical description of internal wave propagation. In this book, the basic mathematical principles, a physical description of the observed phenomena, and practical theoretical methods of determination of wave parameters as well as the original method of observation using moving sensors are presented. Special attention is paid to internal wave propagation over changing bottom topographies in shallow seas such as the Baltic Sea. The book is supplemented with an extended list of relevant and extended bibliographies, a subject index, and an author index.

Book Synopsis Intermediate and Deep Current Measurements in the Northeast Pacific Ocean by : Marshall D. Earle
Download or read book Intermediate and Deep Current Measurements in the Northeast Pacific Ocean written by Marshall D. Earle and published by . This book was released on 1975 with total page 76 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ocean currents were measured in the central northeast Pacific, from 30 degrees N to 40 degrees N and 140 degrees W to 150 degrees W, with nine arrays of moored current meters during autumn 1973. Current meter records at depths from 700 m to 5420 m were analyzed to determine the characteristics of intermediate and deep currents within the central northeast Pacific. The currents in this region have very low speeds which generally decrease with increasing depth. Contributions to the time-dependent currents are primarily from oscillatory motions at the local inertial frequencies and the semidiurnal tidal frequency. Spectral analysis indicates that tidal frequency motion is essentially due to baroclinic internal tides and not barotropic surface tides.
Book Synopsis Tidal Circulation and Flushing Characteristics of the Nauset Marsh System by : David G. Aubrey
Download or read book Tidal Circulation and Flushing Characteristics of the Nauset Marsh System written by David G. Aubrey and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 480 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Various interested bodies (i.e., National Park Service, Cape Cod Commission, and the Town of Orleans) charged with management of the Nauset Marsh system on Cape Cod, Massachusetts, commissioned a study of the estuarine circulation within the Nauset system. Recent significant morphological changes in the system have changed mixing processes and residence times for the embayment. This study specifically addressed the differing water circulation and residence times arising from a migrating single inlet (dominant condition) and dual inlet (1992-1996) situations. These residence times are to be used by the Cape Cod Commission to identify nitrogen-sensitive sub-embayments based on various assumptions of build-out and nutrient loading. The Nauset Marsh system has experienced considerable development in recent years; proper management of this resource area requires knowledge of the consequences of such development. This study provides a defensible basis for evaluating nutrient loading and potential eutrophication arising from development in the watershed around Nauset embayment. However, since morphological changes occur on a rapid basis in this area, the issue of residence time should be re-examined periodically. For instance, rapid onshore migration of the southern barrier beach is threatening closure of the south channel, a condition which could adversely affect water quality in Nauset Harbor in the near future. A process should be established to examine the sensitivity of residence times for rapidly changing morphology.

Book Synopsis Experimental Study of Internal Gravity Waves Over a Slope by : David A. Cacchione
Download or read book Experimental Study of Internal Gravity Waves Over a Slope written by David A. Cacchione and published by . This book was released on 1970 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Propagation of internal gravity waves over a slope in a fluid with constant Brunt-Vaisala frequency was studied in a wave tank. Wave motion in the fluid interior was measured with conductivity probes, and in the boundary layer, with dye streaks and neutrally buoyant particles. Outside the breaking zone, the amplitude and horizontal wave number of high-frequency waves increase linearly with decreasing depth; this is in agreement with existing linear, inviscid solutions. Well upslope, a zone of breaking or runup is produced by the high-frequency waves. If the wave characteristics are closely parallel to the bottom slope, upslope propagation of low-frequency waves produces a line of regularly spaced vortices along the slope, which slowly penetrate into the fluid interior; mixing in these vortices sets up thin horizontal laminae that are more nearly homogeneous than adjacent layers. A criterion for incipient motion of bottom sediment under shoaling internal waves was developed using available theoretical solutions for velocity in the viscous boundary layer, found to be valid for certain experimental conditions.

Book Synopsis The Interaction of Ocean Waves and Wind by : Peter Janssen
Download or read book The Interaction of Ocean Waves and Wind written by Peter Janssen and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2004-10-28 with total page 310 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book was published in 2004. The Interaction of Ocean Waves and Wind describes in detail the two-way interaction between wind and ocean waves and shows how ocean waves affect weather forecasting on timescales of 5 to 90 days. Winds generate ocean waves, but at the same time airflow is modified due to the loss of energy and momentum to the waves; thus, momentum loss from the atmosphere to the ocean depends on the state of the waves. This volume discusses ocean wave evolution according to the energy balance equation. An extensive overview of nonlinear transfer is given, and as a by-product the role of four-wave interactions in the generation of extreme events, such as freak waves, is discussed. Effects on ocean circulation are described. Coupled ocean-wave, atmosphere modelling gives improved weather and wave forecasts. This volume will interest ocean wave modellers, physicists and applied mathematicians, and engineers interested in shipping and coastal protection.
