Analysis of 2-axis pencil beam sonar microbathymetric measurements of mine burial at the Martha's Vineyard Coastal Observatory
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)
The changing state of warfare has driven the US Navy's area of operations closer to shore into littoral coastal waters. Mine Warfare has been proven as an extremely effective means of battlespace control in these waters. ...
Field measurements of a swell band, shore normal, flux divergence reversal
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)
Throughout this thesis we will discuss the theoretical background and empirical observation of a swell band shore normal flux divergence reversal. Specifically, we will demonstrate the existence and persistence of the ...
Rapid extraction of dissolved inorganic carbon from seawater and groundwater samples for radiocarbon dating
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)
The focus of this thesis is the design and development of a system for rapid extraction of dissolved inorganic carbon from seawater and groundwater samples for radiocarbon dating. The Rapid Extraction of Dissolved Inorganic ...
Measurements and dynamics of multiple scale bedforms in tidally energetic environments
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)
The presence of superimposed bedforms, where smaller bedforms exist on larger bedforms, is ubiquitous to energetic tidal environments. Due to their wide range in scale, it is difficult to simultaneously observe these ...
