Subantarctic pCO2 estimated from a biogeochemical float: comparison with moored observations reinforces the importance of spatial and temporal variability

Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Understanding the size and future changes of natural ocean carbon sinks is critical for the projection of atmospheric CO2 levels. The magnitude of the Southern Ocean carbon flux has varied significantly over past decades but mechanisms behind this ...

Measuring the impact of observations on the predictability of the Kuroshio Extension in a shallow-water model [PDF]

, 2012
In this paper sequential importance sampling is used to assess the impact of observations on a ensemble prediction for the decadal path transitions of the Kuroshio Extension (KE). This particle filtering approach gives access to the probability density of

Diffraction and Radiation of Water Waves by a Heaving Absorber in Front of a Bottom-Mounted, V-shaped Breakwater of Infinite Length

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021
In the present study, the problems of diffraction and radiation of water waves by a cylindrical heaving wave energy converter (WEC) placed in front of a reflecting V-shaped vertical breakwater are formulated.

Open-ocean interior moored sensor turbulence estimates, below a Meddy [PDF]

, 2019
A one-year time series of moored high-resolution temperature T-sensor data from 1455 m depth on a 3900 m long line in about 5300 m of water in the NE-Atlantic Canary Basin are dominated by salinity (over-)compensated intrusions arising from the effects ...

Experimental Study on Hydrodynamic Characteristics of Barge-Type Breakwaters under Different Mooring Methods

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023
In this paper, a yacht project in Tingjiang Town, Mawei, Fujian, is suggested as an example of a barge type breakwater made out of scrap barges. The physical modelling of a two-dimensional flume wave test was carried out on a barge-type breakwater ...
