Vertical Motion of Neutrally Buoyant Floats
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The vertical motion of a neutrally buoyant float is determined from the solution to the nonlinear forced harmonic oscillator equation originally set forth by Voorhis. Float response to forced vertical oscillations is ...
On Measuring the Terms of the Turbulent Kinetic Energy Budget from an AUV
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The terms of the steady-state, homogeneous turbulent kinetic energy budgets are obtained from measurements of turbulence and fine structure from the small autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) Remote Environmental Measuring ...
The LatMix Summer Campaign: Submesoscale Stirring in the Upper Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ateral stirring is a basic oceanographic phenomenon affecting the distribution of physical, chemical, and biological fields. Eddy stirring at scales on the order of 100 km (the mesoscale) is fairly well understood and ...
