On the Reality of Internal Lunar Tidal Waves in the Ocean by Bernhard Haurwitz Pdf

The temperature soundings made by the Atlantis at an anchor station north of Bermuda from 16 to 29 June 1938 are analyzed in order to determine whether any diurnal or semidiurnal lunar internal tidal oscillations were present in the observational material. It is concluded that the oscillations which are computed by harmonic analysis are not larger than can be expected in random data. This result suggests that some of the reported occurrences of similar internal waves of tidal character in short series of observations are not real, but merely due to the formal harmonic analysis of the data. However, since in many instances the existence of internal tidal waves has been established beyond doubt, the problem arises to explain which conditions are favorable and unfavorable to the development of such phenomena in the ocean. Various reasons are suggested which may explain the absence of internal tidal waves in the present observation material. (Author).

Internal Waves in the Sea by Owen S. Lee Pdf

Internal waves exist in the ocean as a rule rather than an exception. Energy is transported by them in channels that are similar to sound channels. Their effect on naval exercises and equipment, particularly functions involving the use of underwater sound, can be expected to be more pronounced in these channels. Although theory and observation are still not adequate for a full understanding of the phenomenon, western literature prior to June 1963 contains more than 300 publications dealing with internal waves in the atmosphere, lakes, and seas. These publications are listed in the comprehensive bibliography which is part of this report. (Author).

Oceanographical Engineering by Robert L. Wiegel Pdf

As is the case with many modern fields of study, oceanographical engineering cuts across the boundaries of several disciplines. Like other scientific endeavors, it aims to understand the nature of the ocean and to make use of this understanding for the benefit of humanity through better ports, safer and more economical operations at sea, and greater use of the oceans' natural resources--food, raw materials, and recreation. This graduate-level text requires a knowledge of fluid mechanics; a background in the motions of sediments in fluids is advisable, as is a concurrent course in structural dynamics. Topics include the theory of periodic waves; tsunamis, storm surges, and harbor oscillations; the effect of structures on waves; waves in shoaling water; tides and sea level changes; currents; shores and shore processes; some characteristics of the oceans' waters; moorings; and other related subjects. Certain portions of the book pertaining to the distribution of temperatures and salinities in the ocean are largely descriptive; other portions, such as the sections on waves, are mathematical. Numerous drawings and photographs supplement the text.

Proceedings of the First International Conference on Waste Disposal in the Marine Environment by E. A. Pearson Pdf

Proceedings of the First International Conference on Waste Disposal in the Marine Environment focuses on the disposal of sewage, including pollution of beaches, effects of wastes on marine biota and humans, and water quality. The selection first offers information on the fixed and changing valves in ocean disposal of sewage and wastes and characteristics and expeditious detection of bacterial indices of pollution of marine bathing beaches. Discussions focus on the coliform index and illness among bathers; enterococcus group as an index of pollution of saline bathing beaches; characteristics of the coliform group of bacteria; and procedures for expeditious determination of E. coli and coliform indices in water. The book then examines the risk of infection through bathing in sewage-polluted water; water pollution in Marseilles and its relation with flora and fauna; and the benthonic fauna of southern California in shallow depths and possible effects of wastes on the marine biota. The text examines the use of marine invertebrates as indicators of water quality; foraminiferal ecology around ocean outfalls off southern California; discharge of wastes into the sea in European coastal areas; and diffusion of sewage effluent in an ocean. The selection is a dependable reference for readers interested in the effects of waste disposal in the marine environment.
