Multiple Auvs for Coastal Oceanography
This paper presents the recent developments of the project Multiple Autonomous Underwater Vehicles for Coastal Oceanography, of the University of Porto. The project envisages the development of a highly operational and low-cost system for scientific and environmental data collection in the Portuguese coastal waters. The project activities suggested the development of a Generalized Vehicle (GV) ...
متن کاملVariational assimilation of Lagrangian data in oceanography
We consider the assimilation of Lagrangian data into a primitive equation circulation model of the ocean at basin scale. The Lagrangian data are positions of floats drifting at fixed depth. We aim at reconstructing the fourdimensional space-time circulation of the ocean. This problem is solved using the four-dimensional variational technique and the adjoint method. In this problem the control v...
متن کاملStochastic boundary conditions for coastal flow modeling
[1] Recent high-resolution radar data of surface velocity between the Florida Current and the coast allow us for the first time to deduce coastal boundary conditions for ocean models based on observations. A stochastic model is found to be a better choice for simulating properties of the observed vorticity than a model with deterministic boundary conditions. A stochastic model parameterizing bo...
متن کاملTransformed Flux-form Semi-Lagrangian Scheme for Coastal Ocean Modeling
Numerical approaches in atmospheric and oceanic modeling inevitably introduce diffusion (or dissipation) and dispersion into the approximate solution. From a physical point of view, advection of a passive tracer is the simple transition of a quantity. Therefore, dispersion, the propagation of different spatial scales at different phase speed, and diffusion are processes that are aliens to the p...
متن کاملCoastal oceanography sets the pace of rocky intertidal community dynamics.
The structure of ecological communities reflects a tension among forces that alter populations. Marine ecologists previously emphasized control by locally operating forces (predation, competition, and disturbance), but newer studies suggest that inputs from large-scale oceanographically modulated subsidies (nutrients, particulates, and propagules) can strongly influence community structure and ...
