Abstract: An analytical model for the continental shelf water level and current response to external forcing (wind or ocean sea level) is presented. Similar analytical models, called arrested topographical waves, have been developed ...

Abstract: QUAL2E is a riverine water‐quality program that has been used to study a wide range of environmental problems. Through numerous updates and improvements, it now contains some of the most sophisticated water‐quality kinetics ...

Abstract: The radiative forcing of CO2 and the climate feedback parameter are evaluated in several climate models with slab oceans by regressing the annual-mean global-mean top-of-atmosphere radiative flux against the annual-mean ...

Abstract: The general features of atmospheric acoustic structure in the lower mesosphere have been known for several decades. Initial studies were accomplished by surface observations of anomalous propagation of pressure perturbations ...

Abstract: Data obtained from the Meteorological Rocket Network indicate gross stratospheric circulation responses to solar heat input which range as high as forty days late in the case of the reversal from winter westerly to summer ...

Abstract: The intimate relationship between the local speed of sound of a flight environment and the lift and/or drag on a vehicle is discussed. The fact that this parameter will become increasingly significant as the speed increases ...

Abstract: Rotation of the earth introduces a diurnal perturbation into the heating experienced by the ozonosphere through absorption of solar ultraviolet radiant energy. This diurnal heat wave induces perturbations in the stratospheric ...
