RISA Coupled Hydrodynamic–Bottom Boundary Layer Model of Storm and Tidal Flow in the Middle Atlantic Bight of North America
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The effects of increased friction and tides on circulation in the Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) during the SWADE storm of 25?28 October 1990 have been investigated using a three-dimensional hydrodynamic model coupled to a ...
Factors Influencing Model Skill for Hindcasting Shallow Water Currents during Hurricane Andrew
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Hurricane Andrew made landfall in the Gulf of Mexico after crossing directly over several moored current meter arrays deployed on the Louisiana?Texas shelf. The resulting three-dimensional current, temperature, and salinity ...
Improving HF Radar Surface Current Measurements with Measured Antenna Beam Patterns
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A high-frequency (HF) radar system is deployed on the New Jersey continental shelf as part of a coastal ocean observatory. The system includes two remote transmit?receive sites in Brant Beach and Brigantine, New Jersey, ...
Gulf Stream and Ring Feature Analyses for Forecast Model Validation*
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A series of Gulf Stream forecast model test cases were developed for the Data Assimilation and Model Evaluation Experiment (DAMEE). The model initialization and verification procedure relies heavily on a series of accurate ...
Sediment Resuspension and Transport from a Glider-Integrated Laser in Situ Scattering and Transmissometry (LISST) Particle Analyzer

The Effects of Tides and Oscillatory Winds on the Subtidal Inner-Shelf Cross-Shelf Circulation
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A two-dimensional numerical model is used to investigate the effects of tidal forcing and oscillatory winds on the subtidal cross-shelf circulation on the inner shelf. Bottom topography and initial stratification are ...
Data Assimilation and Model Evaluation Experiment Datasets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Institute for Naval Oceanography, in cooperation with Naval Research Laboratories and universities, executed the Data Assimilation and Model Evaluation Experiment (DAMÉE) for the Gulf Stream region during fiscal years ...
Gap Filling of the Coastal Ocean Surface Currents from HFR Data: Application to the Mid-Atlantic Bight HFR Network
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: igh-frequency radar (HFR) surface current data are an increasingly utilized tool for capturing complex dynamics of coastal ocean systems worldwide. The radar is uniquely capable of sampling relevant temporal and spatial ...
Bottom Stress Estimates and their Prediction on the Northern California Continental Shelf during CODE-1: The Importance of Wave-Current Interaction
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High quality near-bottom boundary layer measurements obtained at a midshelf location (90 m water depth) in the CODE region off Northern California are described. Bottom tripod velocity measurements and supporting data ...
Hurricane Irene Sensitivity to Stratified Coastal Ocean Cooling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: old wakes left behind by tropical cyclones (TCs) have been documented since the 1940s. Many questions remain, however, regarding the details of the processes creating these cold wakes and their in-storm feedbacks onto ...
