Ocean circulationAbstract
The principal lectures of this twelfth Summer Program were
given by Joseph Pedlosky of the University of Chicago. On the following
page one sees Dr. Pedlosky demonstrating advanced effects
caused by rotation and stratification. Only in his last few lectures
do these novel phenomena emerge from the analysis.

Interaction of high frequency internal waves and the boundary layer on the continental shelf
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1984-08)Intermittent, shoreward propagating packets of high frequency first mode internal waves are common on the continental shelf when the water column is stratified and may induce large fluctuations in near bottom velocity. ... -
Experimental and seismological constraints on the rheology, evolution, and alteration of the lithosphere at oceanic spreading centers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 2007-02)Oceanic spreading centers are sites of magmatic, tectonic, and hydrothermal processes. In this thesis I present experimental and seismological constraints on the evolution of these complex regions of focused crustal ... -
Ecology of chemical defenses of algae against the herbivorous snail, Littorina littorea, in the New England rocky intertidal community
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1980-02)In the New England rocky intertidal community, space is dominated by two perennial plant types, brown fucoid algae (Ascophyllum nodosum and several species of Fucus) in the mid zones and the red alga Chondrus crispus ...
