New River Inlet DRI: Observations and Modeling of Flow and Material Exchange
(Naval Postgraduate School, Monterey CA, 2012)
LONG-TERM GOALS: The goal of our effort is to understand river and inlet fluid dynamics through in situ field observations and model validation.
In-Situ Wave Observations in the High Resolution Air-Sea Interaction DRI
(2012-09)
LONG-TERM GOALS: Ocean wave prediction models, based on a spectral energy balance, are widely used to obtain windwave forecasts and hindcasts on global and regional scales (e.g., Komen et al., 1994). However, these inherently ...
Characterization of the Upper Slope Sand Dunes in the South China Sea
(2012)
LONG-TERM GOALS: Understand, parameterize and predict the impact of physical mechanisms on acoustic propagation in the ocean environment.
32-Channel Digitizer for a Moored Hydrophone
(2012)
Long Term Goals: Acquisition of an in situ, 32-chanel digitizer capable of sampling at a rate of 8kHz, with a maximum depth rating of 1 km and data storage capacity sufficient to support continuous recording for a 10-day ...
Corporation of Navy’s Ocean Data into UUV Path Panning with Obstacle Avoidance
(2012)
Implementation of Navy’s ocean data (such as the ocean current velocity, bathymetry, and bottom roughness, etc.) into the UUV path planning with obstacle avoidance.
The future of Arctic sea ice
(Annual Reviews, 2012)
Arctic sea ice is a key indicator of the state of global climate because of both its sensitivity to warming and its role in amplifying climate change. Accelerated melting of the perennial sea ice cover has occurred since ...
On the Oceanic Communication Between the Western Subartic Gyre and the Deep Bering Sea
(Elsevier Ltd., 2012-04-12)
Sparse information is available on the communication between the northern North Pacific and the southern Bering Sea. We present results from a multi-decadal simulation of a high-resolution, pan-Arctic ice-ocean model to ...
Observing Ocean Surface Waves with GPS-Tracked Buoys
(2012-07)
Surface-following buoys are widely used to collect routine ocean wave measurements. While accelerometer
and tilt sensors have been used for decades to measure the wave-induced buoy displacements, alternative
global ...
Modeling and Simulating Environmental Effects
(Monterey, California: Naval Postgraduate School., 2012-08-01)
Environmental Effects Group
On the Use of Emulators with Extreme and Highly Nonlinear Geophysical Simulators
(2012-11)
Gaussian process emulators are a powerful tool for understanding complex geophysical simulators, including
oceanic and atmospheric general circulation models. Concern has been raised about their ability to
emulate complex ...
