Numerical modeling of bioluminescence distributions in the coastal ocean*
|
ABSTRACT
Bioluminescence (BL) predictability experiments (predictions of the intensity, depth, and distance offshore of the BL maximum) were conducted using an advective-diffusive tracer model with velocities and diffusivities from a fine-resolution model of the Monterey Bay, California, area. For tracer initialization, observations were assimilated into the tracer model while velocities and diffusivities were taken from the hydrodynamic model and kept unchanged during the initializati...

FES99: A global tide finite element solution assimilating tide gauge and altimetric information
Journal of Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology
; ABSTRACT An improved version of the global hydrodynamic tide solutions [finite element solutions (FESs) FES94, FES95.2.1, and FES98] has been developed, implemented, and validated. The new model is based on the resolution of the tidal barotropic equations on a global finite element grid without any

A walk on the wild side. (hydrodynamic model explains how Basiliscus basiliscus lizard skips across water)(Technology)(Brief Article)
Science News
; In the wilds of Central America, laced with rivers and streams, the agile, whip-shaped basilisk shows why it has earned the nickname Jesus Christ lizard. It runs on water. Upright on two legs, the 90-gram lizard can skip briskly on fringed toes across the surface of a river. Until now, scientists

Increasing Hydraulic Residence Time in Constructed Stormwater Treatment Wetlands with Designed Bottom Topography
Water Environment Research
; ABSTRACT: The treatment efficiency of wetlands depends primarily on the residence time of the polluted storm water (Walker, 1998). Because of this, increasing hydraulic residence times (HRTs) at various flow levels will increase the treatment efficiency of constructed wetlands. In this research,

Myocardial glucose uptake measured with fluorodeoxyglucose: A proposed method to account for variable lumped constants
The Journal of Nuclear Medicine
; Quantitative assessment of myocardial glucose uptake by the glucose tracer analog 2-deoxy-2sup 18^F]fluoro-D-glucose (FDG) depends on a correction factor (lumped constant [LC which may vary. We propose that this variability is caused by different affinities of FDG and glucose for membrane transport
