Analysis of the Impact of Flow on the Underwater Acoustic Channel
(2022-05-03)Reliable and power efficient underwater communication systems that can adapt to the medium’s changing nature can be designed with knowledge of the physical underwater environment. This thesis discusses a stochastic model ... -
Early diagenesis in a marine sapropel, Mangrove Lake, Bermuda
(American Society of Limnology and Oceanography, Ann Arbor, MI, 1992-12)No abstract available. -
OBSERVATIONS OF THE SPACE-TIME STRUCTURE OF FLOW, VORTICITY AND STRESS OVER ORBITAL-SCALE RIPPLES
(2013-07-09)The spatial and temporal structure of the flow, vorticity and stress over equilibrium orbital-scale sand ripples are investigated at turbulence-resolving scales with a wide-band coherent Doppler profiler (MFDop) in an ... -
Relationships between vertical mixing and photoadaptation of phytoplankton: Similarity criteria
(1984-03)In their natural environment phytoplankton are exposed to fluctuations in incident irradiance due to vertical displacements in the water column induced by turbulent fluid motion. A reaction-diffusion model is analyzed to ... -
Turbulence in the Deep Ocean: A Study of Lee Wave Propagation through Depth-Varying Currents and the Implications for Energy Dissipation
(2023-12-08)Lee wave dissipation rates estimated from observations are two to three times lower than those predicted by models. However, such models have assumed a constant background current into which the waves propagate. To explore ... -
WAVE-CURRENT-TURBULENCE INTERACTIONS IN A HIGH-FLOW TIDAL CHANNEL
(2018-04-05)Grand Passage has been identified for in-stream tidal turbine development as a predictable, high power density, renewable energy source, and is the site for this work. A shore-connected bottom mounted Acoustic Doppler ...
