Residual overturning circulation and its connection to Southern Ocean dynamics
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
Over the last 20 years, our understanding of the meridional overturning circulation has improved, but primarily in a two-dimensional, zonally-averaged framework. In this thesis, I have pushed beyond this simplification and ...
Development and testing of the AXBT Realtime Editing System (ARES)
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
Airborne eXpendable BathyThermographs (AXBTs) are air-launched, single use temperature-depth probes that telemeter temperature observations as a VHF-modulated frequency. This study describes the AXBT Realtime Editing System ...
Estimating atmospheric boundary layer turbulence in the marine environment using lidar systems with applications for offshore wind energy
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2021)
Estimating turbulence in the marine-atmospheric boundary layer is critical to many industrial, commercial and scientific fields, but of particular importance to the wind energy industry. Contributing to both the efficiency ...
An analysis of Atlantic water in the Arctic Ocean using the Arctic Subpolar gyre state estimate and observations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)
The Atlantic Water (AW) Layer in the Arctic Subpolar gyre sTate Estimate (ASTE), a regional, medium-resolution coupled ocean-sea ice state estimate, is analyzed for the first time using bounding isopycnals. A surge of AW, ...
