Ocean surface waves are largely driven by wind. The friction of the air moving across the surface of the water causes the movement of the water and...Become a member and unlock all Study Answers Start today. Try it now Create an account Ask a question Our experts can answer your ...
The transport properties of all metallic quantum materials are determined by the spin and orbital degrees of freedom of the Fermi surface. Broken symmetry states (mirror and/or time) with charge currents can have an internal structure with a combination of spin and orbital angular momentum. The s...
Hourly sampled 70-hours time series of (1-dimensional) radial currents at different distances and directions from the radar are analyzed with the objective of determining the tidal and wind-driven parts. Assuming a homogeneous current field, semidiurnal tidal ellipses are synthesized and compared with...
The relationships between tropical Atlantic Ocean surface currents and horizontal (mass) divergence, sea surface temperature (SST), and winds on monthly-to-annual time scales are described for the time period from 1993 through 2003. Surface horizontal mass divergence (upwelling) is calculated using su...
Mapping of surface currents using the Doppler information of radar backscatter is now a mature technique using shore-based radars operating at frequencies between 5 and 50 MHz, and new concepts of satellite missions are emerging. A characteristic that is common to these concepts and HF radars is ...
A long-term record of surface currents from a high-frequency radar system, along with near-surface hydrographic transects, moored current meter records, and satellite imagery, are analyzed to determine the relative importance of river discharge, wind, and tides in driving the surface flow in the...
apiezoelectric material, when deformed by an applied pressure, will produce a measurable current. Again this method works well on larger devices but, due to the high Young’s modulus of piezoelectric materials and the small currents that are produced, the ability to miniaturize such devices is ...
are limited to the geostrophic constituent by the physics of the measurement. Our approach, therefore, is to attempt to remove the geostrophic constituent from the HFR observations by subtracting the satellite-derived current estimates to form the residual currents. To understand the influence of wind...
directed from the warm region under the flame to the cool region ahead of the flame. Due to theviscosityof the liquid, the surface movement induces currents all over the liquid. As a result, surface tension driven flows, helping the heat transfer ahead of the flame, represent an important ...
