RISAn Optimal Filter for Geostrophic Mesoscale Currents from Along-Track Satellite Altimetry
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An optimal difference operator is derived for smoothing along-track sea surface height measurements from satellite altimeters and computing geostrophic surface currents at or below ocean mesoscale wavelengths with second-order ...
The Impact of Subtidal Circulation on Internal Tide Generation and Propagation in the Philippine Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study examines the effects of the subtidal circulation on the generation and propagation of the M2 internal tide in the Philippine Sea using a primitive equation model. Barotropic to baroclinic conversion at the Luzon ...
Effects of Remote Generation Sites on Model Estimates of M2 Internal Tides in the Philippine Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study investigates the impact of remotely generated internal tides on model estimates of barotropic to baroclinic tidal conversion for two generation sites bounding the Philippine Sea: the Luzon Strait and the Mariana ...
Quantifying the Incoherent M2 Internal Tide in the Philippine Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he baroclinic tides are a crucial source of mixing energy into the deep ocean; however, the incoherent portion of the spectrum is not well examined because it is difficult to observe. This study estimates the coherent and ...
The Impact of Subtidal Circulation on Internal-Tide-Induced Mixing in the Philippine Sea
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his study uses a primitive equation model to estimate the time-varying M2 internal tide dissipation in the Philippine Sea in the presence of the subtidal circulation. The time-mean diapycnal diffusivity due to the M2 ...
Vorticity Balance off the South Shore of Oahu, Hawaii, Derived by High-Frequency Radio Doppler Current Observations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: High-frequency radio Doppler surface current observations off the south shore of Oahu, Hawaii, are used to calculate the vorticity equation at a ~2-km spatial resolution in terms of a time-dependent and time-mean surface ...
Finite Element Modeling of Blast Lung Injury in Sheep
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A detailed 3D finite element model (FEM) of the sheep thorax was developed to predict heterogeneous and volumetric lung injury due to blast. A shared node mesh of the sheep thorax was constructed from a computed tomography ...
The Vorticity Balance of the Ocean Surface in Hawaii from a Regional Reanalysis
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he ocean surface vorticity budget around the Hawaiian Islands is examined using an 18-month model reanalysis generated using four-dimensional variational state estimation with all available observations (satellite, in situ, ...
Response of an Antarctic Peninsula Fjord to Summer Katabatic Wind Events
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: AbstractFjords along the western Antarctic Peninsula are episodically exposed to strong winds flowing down marine-terminating glaciers and out over the ocean. These wind events could potentially be an important mechanism ...
