Observations and Simulations of Diurnal Effects Contributing to the Modification of the Coastal Marine Atmospheric Layer
نویسندگان
چکیده
The goal of this project is to increase our understanding of the modification of complex atmospheric dynamics, cloudiness, and fog due to the interaction of the air, sea, and land in a coastal region. This increased understanding will lead to improvements in parameterizations of turbulence, cloudiness, and fog. In general, it will improve the episodic and seasonal forecasting of coastal weather over a wide spectrum of spatial and temporal scales.

Simulations of Atmospheric Dynamics and Cloudiness In A Coastal Region
Specific project objectives include: 1) investigating the physical processes that lead to the formation, evolution, and dissipation of offshore fog; and 2) investigating the diurnal variability of the dynamics and cloudiness of the marine atmospheric boundary layer off the California and Oregon coasts. The project is supported by the Office of Naval Research, Marine Meteorology and Atmospheric ...
متن کاملA study on the composition of size-fractionated suspended particulate matter in shallow coastal waters of Chabahar Bay
Abstract In the present study, sampling and analysis of size-fractionated suspended particulate matter (SPM) in coastal waters of Chabahar Bay have been done for the first time. Sampling has been conducted on December 25 of 2018 from 5 stations in different locations of the Bay in order to evaluate the effects of natural and human activities on SPM mass and composition. With an overall average...

The visco-elastic properties of asphaltic layers make it appropriate for application in coastal protection in embankments. In this research, an experimental set up of a coastal embankment is developed to investigate the characteristics of lean stone asphalt layer on coastal embankments. More than 100 laboratory tests were carried out considering various loading conditions on the asphalt protect...

The present research article highlights the metal (Cd, Cu, Pb, Zn and Fe)distribution pattern in the RSPM generated in different hot spot sites located at Kochi, theQueen of Arabian Sea. These sampling sites are categorized under three different zonesas estuarine, riverine, and coastal. Two sampling phases are selected in order to check theconsistency in pollution trend after a two year gap and...
متن کاملHeavy metals in coastal sediments of South Caspian Sea: natural or anthropogenic source?
This paper focuses on heavy metal distribution patterns in sediments of central Guilan (CG) and east Mazandaran (EM) in the south Caspian Sea coasts, north of Iran. Sediment sub-samples were retrieved from core and surficial samples in different environments of marine and coastal lagoons as well as coastal outcrops. Inductively Coupled Plasma Mass Spectrometry and Atomic Emission Spectrometry (...
