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 ...
Turbulence Measurement from an Autonomous Underwater Vehicle
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Horizontal profiles of the microstructure of velocity and temperature were obtained with a large autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) using two piezoelectric shear probes, an FP07 thermistor, and three orthogonal accelerometers ...
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 ...
Autonomous Underwater Vehicle–Based Hydrographic Sampling
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV), the U.S. Navy?s Large Diameter Unmanned Underwater Vehicle (LDUUV), was used as a stable platform for rapid, repeated, near-synoptic CTD measurements of estuarine variability in ...
