Stability of a coastal upwelling front over topography
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1988)
Subduction in an eddy-resolving state estimate of the northeast Atlantic Ocean
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
Relatively little is known about the role of eddies in controlling subduction in the eastern half of the subtropical gyre. Here, a new tool to study the eastern North Atlantic Ocean is created by combining a regional, ...
The evolution of lithospheric deformation and crustal structure from continental margins to oceanic spreading centers
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)
This thesis investigates the evolution of lithospheric deformation and crustal structure from continental margins to mid-ocean ridges. The first part (Ch. 2) examines the style of segmentation along the U.S. East Coast ...
Observations and modeling of wave-acceleration-induced sediment transport in the surfzone
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2004)
Onshore sediment transport and sandbar migration are important to the morphological evolution of beaches, but are not understood well. Here, a new model that accounts for accelerations of wave-orbital velocities predicts ...
Elastic wave propagation along a borehole in an anisotropic medium
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1990)
Evolution of lavas at Mt. Shasta volcano, N. California : an experimental and petrologic study
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1988)
Theoretical investigations in helioseismology
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1990)
440 MHz radar observations of plasma turbulence in the auroral lower ionosphere
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1989)
I. Aspects of lithospheric evolution on Venus. ; II. Thermal and collisional histories of chondrite parent bodies
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1989)
An investigation of the marine geochemistry of gold
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1989)
