A comparison of geostrophic relative vorticity at 500 MB using harmonic analysis of the height field with its square grid computation
… States, using a Fourier analysis of the 500-mb height field for the period 3-6 November 1961. A statistical comparison of vorticity obtained in this manner with its square grid computation is made. The writer are deeply indebted to Professor F.L. Martin of the United States Naval Postgraduate …

Wavelet-Based Multiresolution Surface Approximation from Height Fields
A height field is a set of height distance values sampled at a finite set of sample points in a two-dimensional parameter domain. A height field usually contains a lot of redundant information, much of which can be removed without a substantial degradation of its quality. A common approach to …

Maritime Mesh Network Simulation
… of my work. Firstly, we simulated ocean water field. Jerry Tessendorf proposed a method to create ocean surface based on Phillips spectrum which is a wind-driven, semi-empirical oceanography model. We implemented this algorithm in MATLAB and adjusted a key parameter in this algorithm. Secondly, …

Transport in nanoscale systems
… system. Phase diagram is studied by means of the height field order parameter. Novel correlated fluid phase is identified, in which transport of classical charges exhibits correlated behavior. Freezing transitions into commensurate ground state configurations are found to be of the first order. A …

A GPU-Based level of detail system for the real-time simulation and rendering of large-scale granular terrain
… terrain simulation, by integrating it with a heightfield-based terrain system. In this way, we create a level of detail system for simulating large-scale granular terrain. The particle-based terrain system is used to represent areas of terrain around dynamic objects, whereas the height …

Relationships between wintertime modes of atmospheric variability on intermediate and long timescales
… in daily wintertime (DJF) 500 hPa geopotential heights on short (< 6 days), intermediate (6-30 days), and long (> 30 days) timescales is examined. Sectoral EOF analysis shows the leading patterns of variability on short timescales to correspond to the climatological storm tracks, and on long …
