The Mechanical Energy Budget of a Regional Ocean Model
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: method is presented for calculating a complete, numerically closed, mechanical energy budget in a realistic simulation of circulation in a coastal?estuarine domain. The budget is formulated in terms of the ?local? available ...
Characteristics and Dynamics of Density Fronts over the Inner to Midshelf under Weak Wind Conditions
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Measuring Turbulent Dissipation with Acoustic Doppler Velocimeters in the Presence of Large, Intermittent, Infragravity Frequency Bores
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Diagnosing Surfzone Impacts on Inner-Shelf Flow Spatial Variability Using Realistic Model Experiments with and without Surface Gravity Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Automated Temporal Tracking of Coherently Evolving Density Fronts in Numerical Models

Using Depth-Normalized Coordinates to Examine Mass Transport Residual Circulation in Estuaries with Large Tidal Amplitude Relative to the Mean Depth
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: esidual (subtidal) circulation profiles in estuaries with a large tidal amplitude-to-depth ratio often are quite complex and do not resemble the traditional estuarine gravitational circulation profile. This paper describes ...
Distributed Temperature Sensing for Oceanographic Applications
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Distributed Temperature Sensing (DTS) uses Raman scatter from laser light pulsed through an optical fiber to observe temperature along a cable. Temperature resolution across broad scales (seconds to many months, and ...
Mechanisms of Mid- to Outer-Shelf Transport of Shoreline-Released Tracers
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Transport of shoreline-released tracer from the surfzone across the shelf can be affected by a variety of physical processes from wind-driven to submesoscale, with implications for shoreline contaminant dilution and larval ...
