Riverine Flow Observations and Modeling- Sensitivity of Delft3D River Model to Bathymetric Variability
(Naval Postgraduate School, 2011-09)
Long-term goals: The goal of our effort is to understand river and inlet fluid dynamics through in situ field observations and model validation.

An Introduction to Rip Currents Based on Field Observations
(Bioone.orgJournal of Coastal Research (JCR), 2011)
Rip currents are fascinating, natural, surf zone phenomena that occur daily on many beaches throughout the world. My colleagues, students, advisors, and I have been studying rip currents for more than 10 years and have ...
Rip Currents
(Annual Reviews, 2011)
Rip currents are fast-moving flows, traveling “outward almost at right angles to the shore” (Shepard 1936), creating a natural hazard for beachgoers, who suddenly find themselves in deep water. Field measurements and ...
High-resolution surveys of internal tidal waves in Monterey Bay, California, using an autonomous underwater vehicle
(2011)
Temperature measured at the Monterey Inner Shelf Observatory (MISO) in southern Monterey Bay reveals
frequent solitons and semidiurnal internal tidal bores (ITBs). A field study was undertaken to determine whether
these ...
Quantitative ocean characterisation: Acoustically analogous environments
(2011)
Characterisation of the oceanic environment is of interest to many different scientific and
engineering disciplines, including geologists, fisheries managers, marine mammal biologists,
ocean resource managers, conservationists ...
Semi-Adiabatic Model of the Deep Stratification and Meridional Overturning
(2011-04)
An analytical model of the Atlantic deep stratification and meridional overturning circulation is presented
that illustrates the dynamic coupling between the Southern Ocean and the midlatitude gyres. The model,
expressed ...
Finescale Instabilities of the Double-Diffusive Shear Flow
(2011-03)
This study examines dynamics of finescale instabilities in thermohaline–shear flows. It is shown that the
presence of the background diapycnal temperature and salinity fluxes due to double diffusion has a destabilizing
effect ...
