Abstract: A theoretical model of expendable bathythermograph (XBT) fall rate is reviewed, and a new form of fall-rate equation is proposed to include new-surface transient effects. Comparisons are made of T-7 XBT and CTD (conductivity, ...

Abstract: The acoustic properties of water can be drastically modified by a small amount of air content in the fluid. The dynamics of bubble clouds and their collected oscillation mechanisms are among topics of active research in ...

Abstract: Estimates of Brunt-Väisälä frequencies based on measured CTD temperature profiles and estimated salinity profiles were compared to Brunt-Väisäl&auml frequencies calculated from measured CTD temperature and salinity profiles. ...

Abstract: Satellites now provide global measurements of the ocean's surface height and temperature. Ocean climatologies for the northwest Pacific and northwest Atlantic Oceans that relate sea surface height, sea surface temperature, ...

Abstract: An anticyclonic mesoscale eddy, encountered during a hydrographic survey in the Sargasso Sea in September 1979, is described. Embedded in the eddy at a depth of 800 m was an isopycnal lens of anomalous water which extended ...

Abstract: Turbulent mixing adjacent to the Velasco Reef and Kyushu–Palau Ridge, off northern Palau in the western equatorial Pacific Ocean, is examined using shipboard and moored observations. The study focuses on a 9-day-long, ...

Abstract: Voltage induced by the Tsushima Current on an abandoned submarine telephone cable between Pusan, Korea, and Hamada, Japan, has been measured since March 1998 in order to monitor the volume transport through the Korea Strait. ...

Abstract: ir?Sea Interactions in the Northern Indian Ocean (ASIRI) is an international research effort (2013?17) aimed at understanding and quantifying coupled atmosphere?ocean dynamics of the Bay of Bengal (BoB) with relevance to ...
