Slope/shelf circulation and cross-slope/shelf transport out of a bay driven by eddies from the open ocean
… Circumpolar Current and the continental slope/shelf in the Marguerite Bay and west Antarctic Peninsula is examined as interaction between a wind-driven channel flow and a zonally uniform slope with a bay-shaped shelf to the south. Two control mechanisms, eddy advection and propagation of …

Observations of the California Countercurrent
… are discussed for a region over the continental slope off Cape San Martin, California from January 1979 to April 1980. Current vector time series were constructed from the data and compared to a local upwelling index . Progressive vector diagrams of the data were also constructed, and spectrum …

The Biogeochemical Cycling of Dissolved Organic Carbon in the Iberian Margin Upwelling System (NE Atlantic Ocean
… matter occurs, is important for estimating cross-slope fluxes to deep waters. With the increased accuracy and precision (-1%) of analytical methodologies, small changes in the DOC pool can be detected (i.e. 1- 2uM-C). This study investigated the biogeochemical cycling of DOC at the Iberian …

Hydraulic Characterization of Interlocking Concrete Permeable Pavement
… rates for various block spacing, patterns, and across a broad range of pavement cross slopes. Results demonstrated the infiltration rate of the PICPs exposed to horizontal sheet flow was significantly lower than the measured vertical infiltration rate which is currently used in field …

Hydraulic design of pervious concrete highway shoulders
… flowrates for a broad range of void contents, across a broad range of pavement cross slopes. The results demonstrate that the capture discharge and infiltration rates are inversely related to the cross slope of the pavement. Results also showed the infiltration rate of the permeable pavement …

Control of the abyssal ocean overturning circulation by mixing-driven bottom boundary layers
… layers (in addition to the weak buoyancy-driven cross-slope circulation): submesoscale baroclinic eddies on the ridge flanks, enhanced up-canyon flow due to inhibition of the cross-canyon thermal wind, and homogenization of canyon troughs below the level of blocking sills. Combined, these …

Interaction of an eddy with a continental slope
… reproduced. The results consist of eddy-induced cross-topography exchange, formation of topographic eddies, eddy propagation and generation of topographic waves. In chapter three, a more complicated primitive equation model is used to investigate a mesoscale eddy interacting with an exponential …

Quantifying the Impact of Pavement Surface Properties on Road Safety: A Data-Driven Approach
… and Age can affect a model's crash prediction across HSM Functional classifications. A network level dataset of 0.1-mile roadway segments was assembled across selected HSM functional classes, N = 12,474; 14 classes, linking reported crashes to exposure (lnAADT), roadway geometry, and pavement …
