GeophysicsAbstract
The lecturers, Drs. Howard, Stern and
Veronis, have introduced the participants to several aspects of geophysical
fluid dynamics at the frontiers of current research. Their
choice of topic and its development was to serve, on one hand, a
pedagogic function and, on the other, to suggest a variety of allied
unsolved problems.

Eddies and friction : removal of vorticity from the wind-driven gyre
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2003-06)Inertial terms dominate the single-gyre ocean model and prevent western-intensification when the viscosity is small. This occurs long before the oceanically-appropriate parameter range. It is demonstrated here that the ... -
Dissolved inorganic and particulate iodine in the oceans
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1976-02)Analytical methods have been developed for the determination of iodate, iodide and particulate iodine in sea water. Iodate is converted to tri-iodide and the absorbance of tri-iodide at 353 nm is measured. The precision ... -
The dynamics of geometrically compliant mooring systems
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2000-06)Geometrically compliant mooring systems that change their shape to accommodate deformations are common in oceanographic and offshore energy production applications. Because of the inherent geometric nonlinearities, ...
