RISOne-Dimensional Study on Propagation of Tsunami Wave in River Channels
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: A study of one-dimensional tsunami propagation up river channels is presented. Laboratory experiments were conducted to examine the wave propagation characteristics and provide data for validating a numerical model. The ...
Geostrophic Vortex Merger and Streamer Development in the Ocean with Special Reference to the Merger of Kuroshio Warm Core Rings
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A simple, quasigeostrophic, two-layer model was used to study the interactions of two like-signed vortices and streamer development in the ocean. In particular, models corresponding to the observed merger of two Kuroshio ...
Distribution and Modification of North Pacific Intermediate Water around the Subarctic Frontal Zone East of 150°E
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Modification and distribution of North Pacific Intermediate Water (NPIW) in the area north of 30°N and east of 150°E are discussed based on an isopycnal particle tracking experiment with the velocity field estimated from ...
Extrinsic Cell Infiltration and Revascularization Accelerate Mechanical Deterioration of the Patellar Tendon After Fibroblast Necrosis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study was performed to determine the contribution of extrinsic cell infiltration and revascularization into the patellar tendon in alteration of the mechanical properties of the patellar ...
Characteristics of Mesoscale Eddies in the Kuroshio–Oyashio Extension Region Detected from the Distribution of the Sea Surface Height Anomaly
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This study investigates the distribution of the sea surface height anomaly (SSHA) with the aim of quantifying the characteristics of mesoscale eddies in the Kuroshio?Oyashio extension region (KOER), where intense mesoscale ...
Unstable Frontal Waves along the Kuroshio Extension with Low-Potential Vorticity Intermediate Oyashio Water
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A linear stability analysis was conducted for a three-layer primitive equation model including viscosity with a basic state, which modeled the stratification and velocity fields with the vertical and horizontal variations ...
Decadal Changes in the Mode Waters in the Midlatitude North Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Temporal changes in the properties of the North Pacific subtropical mode water (NPSTMW) and the North Pacific central mode water (NPCMW), which occurred around the mid-1970s, are investigated using temperature data composited ...
Real-Time Tsunami Prediction by Inversion Method Using Offshore Observed GPS Buoy Data: Nankaido
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: In Japan, the probability of a Tokai, Tonankai, and Nankai earthquake occurring in the early 21st century is high. Given this likelihood, estimating the resulting tsunami in real time is desirable. This study details an ...
Formation and Circulation of Mode Waters of the North Pacific in a High-Resolution GCM
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Formation and circulation of mode waters in the subtropical North Pacific are investigated by performing a numerical simulation with a high-resolution general circulation model. In the model, important features for forming ...
