Sonic Layer Depth estimated from XBT temperatures and climatological salinities
Sonic layer depth (SLD) plays an important role in antisubmarine warfare in terms of identifying the shadow zones for submarine safe parking. SLD is estimated from sound velocity profiles (SVP) which is inturn is obtained from temperature and salinity (T/S) profiles. Given the limited availability of salinity data in comparison to temperature, SVPs need to be obtained from alternate methods. In...
متن کاملClimatological Diurnal Cycles in Clear-Sky Brightness Temperatures from the High-Resolution Infrared Radiation Sounder (HIRS)
A climatology of the diurnal cycles of HIRS clear-sky brightness temperatures was developed based on measurements over the period 2002–07. This was done by fitting a Fourier series to monthly gridded brightness temperatures of HIRS channels 1–12. The results show a strong land–sea contrast with stronger diurnal cycles over land, and extending from the surface up to HIRS channel 6 or 5, with reg...
متن کاملEstimating climatological planetary boundary layer heights from radiosonde observations: Comparison of methods and uncertainty analysis
[1] Planetary boundary layer (PBL) processes control energy, water, and pollutant exchanges between the surface and free atmosphere. However, there is no observation‐ based global PBL climatology for evaluation of climate, weather, and air quality models or for characterizing PBL variability on large space and time scales. As groundwork for such a climatology, we compute PBL height by seven met...
متن کاملEffect of Temperature and Salinity on Sound Speed in the Central Arabian Sea
Sound speed in the oceans depends on temperature, salinity, and pressure and has large seasonal and spatial variations. Since temperature and salinity variations are large compared to pressure, we studied the relative importance of these two parameters on sound speed by analyzing the hourly profiles for one year (16 October 1994 – 22 October 1995) up to 250 m depth from the Woods Hole Oceanogra...
متن کاملOsmoregulatory capacity of the shrimp Litopenaeus vannamei at different temperatures and salinities, and optimal culture environment.
Osmoregulation in Litopenaeus vannamei was studied in a factorial experiment at four temperatures (20, 24, 28 and 32 degrees C) and six salinities (10, 16, 22, 28, 34 and 40 per thousand). The isosmotic related points for 20, 24, 28, and 32 degrees C were 754, 711, 822, and 763 mmol/kg, respectively. This species hyperregulates between at salinities of 10 and 20 per thousand and hyporegulates b...
