Contemplating Ocean Wave Measurements
This is a personal contemplation on the state of ocean wave measurement, historically, and with an eye toward the future. The conceptual basis which leads to the conventional wave measuring instruments has been in practice for over six decades which is basically single point observations of three-dimensional waves. We need new conceptual advancement and new instrumentation to rejuvenate our res...
متن کاملCarbon dioxide hydrate particles for ocean carbon sequestration
This paper presents strategies for producing negatively buoyant CO2 hydrate composite particles for ocean carbon sequestration. Our study is based on recent field observations showing that a continuous-jet hydrate reactor located at an ocean depth of ~1500 m produced curved negatively buoyant cylindrical particles with diameters ~ 2.5 cm and lengths up to ~ 1 m. Accordingly we performed new lab...
متن کاملPore-Level Modeling of Carbon Dioxide Infiltrating the Ocean Floor
Ocean sequestration of carbon dioxide is considered to be a potentially important method of reducing greenhouse gas emissions (US DOE, 1999). Oceans are currently the largest atmospheric carbon dioxide sink; and certainly, enough storage capacity exists in the oceans to hold all of the CO2 that we can emit for many years. Additionally, technologies exist that allow us to pump liquid CO2 into th...
متن کاملCholinergic mechanism in the cerebrovascular action of carbon dioxide.
Cholinergic Mechanism in the Cerebrovascular Action of Carbon Dioxide • The effect of an increase in Pa^., on cortical blood flow was tested in control animals and after atropine or eserine administration. Blood flow was measured at the tip of implanted platinum electrodes by means of the hydrogen clearance method. The results showed that, although atropine did not impede the appearance of auto...
متن کاملOcean-atmosphere partitioning of anthropogenic carbon dioxide on centennial timescales
[1] A theory for the ocean-atmosphere partitioning of anthropogenic carbon dioxide on centennial timescales is presented. The partial pressure of atmospheric CO2 (PCO2) is related to the external CO2 input (DSC) at air-sea equilibrium by: PCO2 = 280 ppm exp(DSC/[IA + IO/R]), where IA, IO, and R are the pre-industrial values of the atmospheric CO2 inventory, the oceanic dissolved inorganic carbo...
