Sensitive Analysis of Different Types of Deep Water Risers to Conventional Mooring Systems
International Journal of Coastal and Offshore Engineering, 2017 Structural response of different types of conventional deep water riser affected by mooring systems in harsh environment is focused in this study. With increasing water depth, the mooring system design of a floating-type production platform becomes more ...

Coupled dynamics analysis of floating wind turbine mooring system under extreme operating gust
Applied Ocean ResearchExtreme operational gust (EOG), defined by sudden increases in wind speed, is one of the most hazardous situations for wind turbines and the mooring system. A coupled aero-hydro-servo-elastic simulation model is developed using a dynamic link library and

Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Ocean stratification, measured as mixed layer depth (MLD), is an important feature that influences many processes in the ocean; for example, by mediating the fluxes of momentum, heat and crucially key gases such as CO2 and oxygen from the atmosphere into the water column and vice versa. The conventional methods to measure stratification (e.g.,

Development of a moored radium in situ sampler to measure annual time series
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Radium is a useful tracer of sediment‐derived materials, improving our understanding of the geochemical cycling of elements at ocean boundaries. We have developed an autonomous in situ sampler to collect time series samples of radium isotopes on mooring deployments.

Sediment trap preservative choice impacts particle‐associated microbial community composition
Limnology and Oceanography: Methods, EarlyView.Abstract Understanding and quantifying the microbial contribution to particulate organic matter (POM) flux and carbon cycling in the ocean relies largely on the collection of sinking POM. A critical aspect of evaluating microbial communities on sediment trap‐collected POM is their preservation until recovery and sample processing.
