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.

Coral biomineralization, climate proxies and the sensitivity of coral reefs to CO2-driven climate change
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2017-02)Scleractinian corals extract calcium (Ca2+) and carbonate (CO2−3) ions from seawater to construct their calcium carbonate (CaCO3) skeletons. Key to the coral biomineralization process is the active elevation of the CO2−3 ... -
The tangential drag of an axially oscillating cylinder
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1975-09)An experimental investigation of the tangentiaì drag of an axially oscillating cylinder is presented. Deep-sea mooring cables are oscillated sinusoidally at ocean wave amplitudes and frequencies, and experimenta1 values ... -
Linear and nonlinear stratified spindown over sloping topography
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2010-06)In a stratified rotating fluid, frictionally driven circulations couple with the buoyancy field over sloping topography. Analytical and numerical methods are used to quantify the impact of this coupling on the vertical ...
