Reports and Technical Reports
Sounds produced by wood boring marine animals and attempts to detect these animals in waterfront structures using passive sonic techniques
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1979-09); NPS68-79-001
Wood boring organisms such as shipworms and gribbles make characteristic
sounds as they actively bore into wood. In the laboratory these sounds
isolated from ambient noise have been recorded and analyzed. In habor ...
The nature of primary organic films in the marine environment and their significance for ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC) heat exchange surfaces
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1977-02); NPS-68Hc77021
The development of bacterial slime films on the heat exchanger surfaces of OTEC power plants is likely to be of critical importance in determining if OTEC closed cycle systems are technically and economically viable. This ...
A high frequency platinum resistance thermometer system for measuring turbulent atmospheric temperature fluctuations
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1975-02); NPS-58Bb75021
A sensor and electronic system has been developed and used to measure
high frequency, small scale atmospheric temperature fluctuations.
The sensor consists of a platinum wire 0.25ym in diameter and 0.30mm
in length. The ...
Atlantic water on the Chukchi Shelf
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1976-12); NPS-68BF76121
An anomalously warm saline layer in the bottom of the shallow Chukchi Sea
in August 1975 is believed due to a surge which drove water from the Atlantic
Layer of the Arctic Ocean up onto the shelf. Two earlier occurrences ...
Temperature fine structure near the sea-ice margin of the Chukchi Sea
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1979-05); NPS68-79-004
Temperature fine structure with peak-to-peak fluctuations often exceeding 2°C is prevalent throughout
the marginal sea-ice zone of the shallow Chukchi Sea in midsummer. It is normally found within 20-35
km outside of the ...
Biology and ecology of encrusting bryozoans in Monterey Harbor
(Monterey, California. Naval Postgraduate School, 1970-10-20); NPS-58-HC70101A
The encrusting bryozoans Celleporaria brunnea, Cryptosula pallasiana and Tubulipora tuba are the dominant bryozoans and often the dominant fouling organisms in Monterey harbor. By using panels as collecting surfaces, the ...
