Wind-forced continental shelf waves from a geographical origin     

Jason H. Middleton  Andrew Cunningham 《Continental Shelf Research》1984,3(3):215-232

The response of a barotropic coastal ocean on a step-shaped continental shelf to a traveling sinusoidal wind stress forcing is predicted theoretically using a frictional force proportional to the alongshore current velocity. This theory is compared to a small set of observations from the northeast coast of Australia where a sudden widening of the continental shelf provides a geographical origin. The comparison is accomplished by means of frequency response functions relating alongshore wind stress with alongshore velocity. Amplitudes of the response functions are predicted to increase with alongshore distance equatorward and also to decrease with frequency at any location. These predictions are verified by the measurements. Predicted phase lags are generally less than about 30°, with observations agreeing with theory to within about 20°C. In general, the measurements provide reasonable evidence to support the theory of wind-forced continental shelf waves from a geographical origin.  相似文献

The detection of binary companions to subdwarf B stars     

C. Simon Jeffery  & Don L. Pollacco 《Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society》1998,298(1):179-184

Intermediate dispersion spectroscopy of a sample of 40 hot subdwarf B stars between 5500 and 9000Å has been obtained. The sample includes a large fraction of targets which have been studied photometrically. Seven targets show strong lines arising from the infrared Ca  ii triplet, the unequivocal signature of a cool companion. The positive Ca  ii identifications include known photometric binaries and new targets; all are associated with a photometric red excess. Assuming a canonical value for the subdwarf luminosity, all of the detected companions are overluminous compared with the main sequence. The detection procedure indicates an improved and more secure method for the measurement of the binary frequency of hot subdwarfs.  相似文献   

The impact of drilling fluid and well cuttings on polychaete feeding guilds from the US northeastern continental shelf     

Don Maurer  Wayne Leathem  Charles Menzie 《Marine pollution bulletin》1981,12(10):342-347

The effect of recent drilling operations (fluid and well cuttings) on polychaete feeding guilds from the continental shelf off Atlantic City, New Jersey, was examined. Although there were some adverse effects on macrobenthos from 2160 metric tons of cuttings and mud solids discharged into the marine environment, the composition of polychaete feeding guilds remained essentially unchanged. This key trophic relationship between polychaetes and the changing environment due to the drilling operation was apparently uninterrupted. This relationship remains to be examined in other natural and perturbed habitats.  相似文献

Channel constituents in beryl     

S. Don Goldman  George R. Rossman  Kathleen M. Parkin 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1978,3(3):225-235

The electronic absorption spectra of Fe²⁺ in non-chromium beryls are examined. Fe²⁺ in the Al-rich six-coordinate site produces absorption bands at about 820 nm and 970 nm polarizedE‖c. Fe²⁺ in the channel produces bands at 820 nm (⊥c) and 2100 nm (‖c). Some blue beryls which are more intensely colored than most aquamarines, have an absorption band at ～700 nm (‖c) which is suggested to arise from an Fe²⁺/Fe³⁺ intervalence interaction. Fe²⁺ in both the six-coordinate site and the channel is identified in the Mössbauer spectra. The Mössbauer spectra of deep blue beryls are unusual and have not been satisfactorily explained. Color changes which accompany heating and irradiation are strongly influenced by the channel iron.  相似文献   

A simple pore water hydrogen diffusion syringe sampler     

Vroblesky DA  Chapelle FH  Bradley PM 《Ground water》2007,45(6):798-802

Molecular hydrogen (H(2)) is an important intermediate product and electron donor in microbial metabolism. Concentrations of dissolved H(2) are often diagnostic of the predominant terminal electron-accepting processes in ground water systems or aquatic sediments. H(2) concentrations are routinely measured in ground water monitoring wells but are rarely measured in saturated aquatic sediments due to a lack of simple and practical sampling methods. This report describes the design and development (including laboratory and field testing) of a simple, syringe-based H(2) sampler in (1) saturated, riparian sediments, (2) surface water bed sediments, and (3) packed intervals of a fractured bedrock borehole that are inaccessible by standard pumped methods.  相似文献   

High-frequency radar observations of the June 2013 US East Coast meteotsunami   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Belinda Lipa  Hardik Parikh  Don Barrick  Hugh Roarty  Scott Glenn 《Natural Hazards》2014,74(1):109-122

We report here on the observation and offline detection of the meteotsunami off the New Jersey coast on June 13, 2013, using coastal radar systems and tide gauges. This work extends the previous observations of tsunamis originating in Japan and Indonesia. The radars observed the meteotsunami 23 km offshore, 47 min before it arrived at the coast. Subsequent observations showed it moving onshore. The neighboring tide gauge height reading provides confirmation of the radar observations near the shore.  相似文献
