Sonification Experiments with the Seismic Signature of Ocean Surf
The Coastal Ocean Action Strategies (COAST) Institute was created in 1989 within the School of Marine and Atmospheric Sciences to assist in coastal zone management and coastal marine policy analysis. We do this by exploring future scenarios for Long Island's coastline and coastal environment and by working with policy makers and environmental managers in identifying and analyzing strategies tha...
متن کاملThe Wave-Driven Ocean Circulation
Oceanic surface gravity waves have a mean Lagrangian motion, the Stokes drift. The dynamics of winddriven, basin-scale oceanic currents in the presence of Stokes drift are modified by the addition of so-called vortex forces and wave-induced material advection, as well by wave-averaged effects in the surface boundary conditions for the dynamic pressure, sea level, and vertical velocity. Some the...
متن کاملContemplating 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 کاملPrevalent genome streamlining and latitudinal divergence of planktonic bacteria in the surface ocean.
Planktonic bacteria dominate surface ocean biomass and influence global biogeochemical processes, but remain poorly characterized owing to difficulties in cultivation. Using large-scale single cell genomics, we obtained insight into the genome content and biogeography of many bacterial lineages inhabiting the surface ocean. We found that, compared with existing cultures, natural bacterioplankto...
متن کاملWave Group Forcing of Low Frequency Surf Zone Motion
The nearshore potential vorticity balance of Bowen and Holman (1989) is expanded to include the forcing from wave group-induced radiation stresses. Model results suggest that the forcing from these radiation stresses can drive oscillations in the longshore current that have a spatial structure similar to linear shear instabilities of the longshore current. In addition, the forced response is ne...
