Energy changes in baroclinic models
(Monterey, California. U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1966-10)
The effects of heat transfer on the kinetic energy tendencies of a
perturbation superimposed on a basic zonal current are investigated. The
rate at which kinetic energy is gained in both the adiabatic and diabatic
models ...
Employment ESSA and NIMBUS satellite information in tropical analysis and forecasting
(1966-10)
ESSA 2 and NIMBUS 2 APT daylight cloud photographs of the
western Pacific area (0-20N, 135-165E) from 13 through 30 May 1966
were manually converted into digitized cloud charts indicating cover
and type. The charts were ...
Experiments in numerical forecasting of tropical storm movement
(Monterey, California. U.S. Naval Postgraduate School, 1966-10)
Numerical prediction is rapidly becoming the most accurate approach to forecasting tropical cyclones. The numerical model in this study utilizes the U.S. Navy Fleet Numerical Weather
Facility's (FNWF) so-called decomposition ...
Daily and quasi-weekly beach profile changes at Monterey, California
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1964)
Sand heights measured on two beach profiles, supplemented by wave
and tide data, were collected on daily and quasi-weekly bases for Del Monte
Beach between July 12, 1963, and March 31, 1964. This beach, composed of
fine ...
Crosswind coefficients of diffusion and their correlation with micrometeorological parameters
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1960)
Diffusion measurements were made at the Round Hill Field Station Nebraska in the year 1957. These measurements were used to calculate __, the LaGrangian standard deviation in the direction lateral to the mean wind for a ...
