Benthic Metabolism and Standing Stock in the Central and Northern Deep Red Sea     

H. Thiel    O. Pfannkuche    R. Theeg  G. Schriever 《Marine Ecology》1987,8(1):1-20

Abstract. Benthic metabolism and standing stocks were investigated in the deep Red Sea between 21^o and 27^oN, Activity was assessed by the determination of respiration rates with a shipboard method and by calculating oxygen consumption from the activity in the electron transport system. We attempted to compare results from different latitudes within the warm Red Sea and with data from cold Atlantic environments. Our investigations were part of an environmental risk assessment to evaluate future mining of metalliferous sediments from the Atlantis II Deep.  相似文献

On the capsize performance of a discus buoy in deep sea breakers     

R.M. Carson   《Ocean Engineering》1982,9(5):501-514

The mode of capsize of a discus buoy in breaking waves is discussed. The results of model tests are given; these show that a judicious choice of mooring design can substantially reduce the chance of capsize. A comparison is made with the performance of the buoy on station.  相似文献   

Ionic activity coefficients in aqueous mixtures of NaCl and MgCl₂     

R. A. Robinson  R. G. Bates 《Marine Chemistry》1978,6(4):327-333

Methods developed earlier, based on hydration numbers for individual ionic species, have been extended to the calculation of ionic activity coefficients in aqueous systems of two electrolytes MX and NX₂ with a common unhydrated anion (X⁻). The data required include the mean activity coefficients of MX and NX₂ in the mixtures, together with the osmotic coefficient. The procedure is illustrated by a calculation of γ_Na, γ_Mg, and γ_Cl in a mixture of NaCl and MgCl₂ closely approximating the composition of seawater with salinity of 35‰.  相似文献   

Nocdap results: On the relationship of extreme waves and currents for design of offshore structures     

R. Lee Gordon  Finn-Erik Dahl  David J.H. Peters 《Ocean Engineering》1985,12(4):293-308

Simultaneous wind, wave, and current data during 21 storms spanning four winters at Tromsøflaket (230 m depth) were analysed to determine joint probabilities of occurrence. Waves were measured with a Waverider Buoy, winds with a recording anemometer onboard a vessel and currents at up to five depths with Aandera RCM-4 current meters. Measured currents were filtered to separate tidal currents from residual currents. In most of the statistical analyses, the actual current profiles were replaced with a simplified “equivalent” profile (constant above 50 m depth) whose magnitude was chosen to give the same drag load on a single pile as the actual profile when both profiles were combined with wave orbital velocities. The data suggest that the equivalent current is weakly correlated with the wave height. Within the range of the data analysed, an in-line equivalent residual current of 30 cm sec⁻¹ is adequate for design drag force calculations.The data presented here are used to illustrate a procedure for data analysis and are not suitable for use as design criteria.  相似文献

Relationship between Shot-Induced Noise and Shot Interval in Seismic Refraction Experiments at Sea     

Herber  R.  Weigel  W.  Wong  H. K. 《Marine Geophysical Researches》1997,19(3):257-265

Seismic noise induced by the seismic source during continuous profiling reduces the signal-to-noise ratio and hence the data quality. This noise is largely dependent on the shot interval. In this paper, the noise amplitude of refraction seismic records from a special experiment is analysed as a function of the shot interval. An empirical exponential relationship between mean peak noise amplitude and shot interval is deduced. By increasing the shot interval, the induced noise can be minimized on all successive records. This results in an improvement of the data, predominantly the signal-to-noise ratio. Because the seismic signal and the shot-induced noise have nearly the same spectra, the chance of improving the signal-to-noise ratio by stacking is significantly reduced.  相似文献   

Transverse vibrations of a rectangular cantilever plate with thickness varying in a discontinuous fashion     

R.E. Rossi  P.M. Belles  P.A.A. Laura  S. La Malfa  L. Ercoli  D. Pasqua 《Ocean Engineering》1996,23(3):271-276

A numerical solution is obtained for the title problem by means of the popular finite element method. An experimental investigation of the problem is also presented for plates of square planform. The agreement between theoretical and experimental values is very good in the case of the fundamental frequency, and reasonably good when the second and third normal modes of transverse vibration are considered. It is concluded that beneficial effects are obtained in the sense that one generates a lighter structural element with higher fundamental frequency of transverse vibration. Hence, dynamic stiffening is achieved.  相似文献
