Use of an AUV to Quantify Submesoscale Mixing Processes 02 Nov 2009 9 pages
Authors:  Louis Goodman; MASSACHUSETTS UNIV DARTMOUTH SCHOOL FOR MARINE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
The full text of this report is available for sale.This project provided planning support to attend meetings and perform preliminary calculations for the ONR DRI Scalable Lateral Mixing and Coherent Turbulence project Use of an AUV to Quantify Submesoscale Mixing Processes which commenced in FY 09. The long-term goal of this project is to quantify the driving mechanisms and pathways of dissipation of lateral submesoscale mixing. A major thrust is understanding the role that cascade processes, both forward and ...


Scalable Lateral Mixing and Coherent Turbulence DRI: Use of an AUV to Quantify Submesoscale Mixing Processes 30 Sep 2009 8 pages
Authors:  Louis Goodman; MASSACHUSETTS UNIV DARTMOUTH SCHOOL FOR MARINE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
The full text of this report is available for sale.The long-term goal of this project is to quantify the driving mechanisms and pathways of dissipation of lateral submesoscale mixing. A major thrust is understanding the role that cascade processes, both forward and backward, play in connecting submesoscale variability to 3D turbulence.


Development of Turbulent Biological Closure Parameterizations Jan 2009 8 pages
Authors:  Louis Goodman; MASSACHUSETTS UNIV DARTMOUTH SCHOOL FOR MARINE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
The full text of this report is available for sale.The long-term goals of this project are: (1) to develop a theoretical framework to quantify turbulence induced NPZ interactions. (2) to apply the theory to develop parameterizations to be used in realistic environmental physical biological coupling numerical models.


AUV Turbulence Measurements in the LOCO Field Experiments Jan 2009 10 pages
Authors:  Louis Goodman; MASSACHUSETTS UNIV DARTMOUTH SCHOOL FOR MARINE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
The full text of this report is available for sale.The long-term goal of this project is to quantify the role of turbulence and fine scale vertical shear and buoyancy on the formation, evolution, and breakdown of thin phytoplankton layers. Particular attention is given to understanding the relationship of the space and time statistics of the physical fields to that of the phytoplankton thin layers


Development of Turbulent Biological Closure Parameterizations Jan-2008 4 pages
Authors:  Louis Goodman; MASSACHUSETTS UNIV DARTMOUTH SCHOOL FOR MARINE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY
The full text of this report is available for sale.The long-term goal of this project is to understand and represent the dynamical role of planktonic fluctuations induced by physical turbulence. Additionally, this work is intended to be the basis of an efficient representation and methodology which will allow their inclusion in real ocean mean field dynamical models. I. Extend Goodman and Robinson (2007) statistically based theory to include a greater variety of fundamental biophysical dynamical processes; II. Development of ...

Turbulence Velocimetry Technique. 16 JUL 1991
Authors:  Louis Goodman; DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY WASHINGTON DC
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.A technique for obtaining a class of beam pattern is described which results in eliminating the Doppler spread effect of the mean transverse component of flow of scatterers. This is accomplished by weighting various array elements. This component of flow is typically the main contributor to Doppler frequency spread. With this component eliminated, the other contributor of Doppler spread is due to the turbulent or fluctuating scatterer motion on the ...


The Deformation of a Turbulent Field by an Inviscid, Mean Fluid Motion with Application to the Flow Around a Body. 01 AUG 1972
Authors:  Alan T. Massey; Louis Goodman; NAVAL UNDERWATER SYSTEMS CENTER NEWPORT RI
The full text of this report is not available and therefore is not for sale. This information is provided for reference purposes only.It is shown that for the steady, incompressible fluid motion around an arbitrarily shaped body the contravariant components of the velocity within the deformed region around the body are linearly related to the contravariant velocity components within the undeformed region far from the body; or equivalently, that if the motion is considered as a change of coordinates the velocity components follow the law for transformation of the contravariant components of ...
