Surface-to-subsurface velocity projection for shallow water currents
Sea surface currents in coastal oceans are accessible to continuous direct observations by shore-based high-frequency Doppler radar systems. Inferring current structure in shallow water from such surface current observations is attempted. The approach assumes frictionally dominated flow and vertically varying current velocity on the scale of the Ekman boundary layer. The approximation of the ve...
متن کاملProjection finite volume method for shallow water flows
A simple and accurate projection finite volume method is developed for solving shallow water equations in two space dimensions. The proposed approach belongs to the class of fractional-step procedures where the numerical fluxes are reconstructed using the method of characteristics, while an Eulerian method is used to discretize the conservation equations in a finite volume framework. The method...
متن کاملA New Small Drifter for Shallow Water Basins: Application to the Study of Surface Currents in the Muggia Bay (Italy)
A new small drifter prototype for measuring current immediately below the free surface in a water basin is proposed in this paper. The drifter dimensionsmake it useful for shallowwater applications.The drifter transmits its GPS location via GSMphone network. The drifter was used to study the trajectory of the surface current in the Muggia bay, the latter containing the industrial harbor of the ...
متن کاملShallow Water Propagation and Surface Reverberation Modeling
The primary long-term goal is to measure and model high-frequency acoustic propagation in the presence of surface gravity waves and breaking waves to better understand the effects of surface reverberation on shallow water, underwater acoustic communications (ACOMS). Secondary long-term goals are to exploit measurements of breaking wave noise to infer bubble cloud populations at the sea surface ...
متن کاملWater Quality in Walnut Creek Watershed: Nitrate-Nitrogen in Soils, Subsurface Drainage Water, and Shallow Groundwater
Nonpoint source contamination of surface and groundwater resources with nitrate-N (NO3-N) has been linked to agriculture across the midwestern USA. A 4-yr study was conducted to assess the extent of NO3-N leaching in a central Iowa field. Water flow rate was monitored continuously and data were stored on an internal datalogger. Water samples for chemical analysis were collected weekly provided ...
