Characterization of interface roughness of rippled sand off Fort Walton Beach, Florida

As part of the environmental characterization to model acoustic bottom scattering during the high-frequency sediment acoustics experiment (SAX99), fine-scale sediment roughness of a medium sand was successfully measured within a 600 /spl times/ 600-m area by two methods: stereo photography and a technique using a conductivity system. Areal coverage of the two methods, representing approximately 0.16 m/sup 2/ of the sea floor, was comparable, resulting in the depiction and quantification of half-meter wavelength sand ripples. Photogrammetric results were restricted to profiles digitized at 1-mm intervals; sediment conductivity results generated gridded micro-bathymetric measurements with 1- to 2-cm node spacing. Roughness power spectra give similar results in the low-spatial-frequency domains where the spectra estimated from both approaches overlap. However, spectra derived from higher resolution photogrammetric results appear to exhibit a multiple-power-law fit. Roughness measurements also indicate that spectrum changes as a function of time. Application of statistical confidence bounds on the power spectra indicates that roughness measurements separated by only 1-2 m may be spatially nonstationary.     

Modeling high-frequency acoustic backscattering from gas voids buried in sediments

It was found in a previous paper that strong acoustic backscattering from a soft sediment in Eckernförde Bay, Germany, is caused by scatterers buried beneath the sea floor. The scatterers are methane gas voids of nonspherical shape. This paper models backscattering due to such gas voids. Scattering cross sections of oblate spheroids are calculated to approximate those of gas voids. Proper statistical averages are taken to make model/data comparisons. It is found that this single scattering model compares favorably with measured acoustic backscattering data at 40 kHz. In the model, density and spatial distribution of gas voids are derived from limited core data.

Comparison among four kinds of data of sea surface wind stress in the South China Sea

By using remote sensing (ERS) data, FSU data, COADS data and Hellerman & Rosen-stein objective analysis data to analyze the sea surface wind stress in the South China Sea, it is found that the remote sensing data have higher resolution and more reasonable values. Therefore we suggest that remote sensing data be chosen in the study of climatological features of sea surface wind stress and its seasonal variability in the South China Sea, especially in the study of small and middle scale eddies.

长江口南支潮流的一个数值模拟

为了能够精确地拟合天然水域不规则的水陆边界,并能保持有限差分数值计算在矩形网格中进行,本文利用Thompson的数值网格生成技术,在长江口南支七丫口至横沙河段设计了一个椭圆型边界拟合坐标系,并在这个坐标系下建立了平面二维潮流数学模型。通过数值求解此数学模型,实现了计算区域内现状潮流的一个数值模拟,模拟结果表明,模式的设计是成功的。     

杭州湾潮混合的初步研究 Ⅱ. 下湾区

1964年作者发表了“杭州湾潮混合的初步研究Ⅰ.上湾区”一文(毛汉礼、甘子钧等，1964)。根据表征入海径流冲淡作用的河口盐度沿程分布和变化特征，将杭州湾以海盐为界划分为上湾区和下湾区：海盐以上的上游段为上湾区，其潮混合为强混合型；海盐至湾口的下游段为下湾区。其后，又对杭州湾的盐度分布、水系和环流做了初步分析，并对潮汐、对流和风浪等作用所导致的涡动混合现象作了粗略的讨论，认为要合理地阐明下湾区的混合过程似应同时考虑侧向与垂向的混合效应(毛汉礼．沈鸿书等，1964)。本文根据1963年在杭州湾下湾区进行专题水文调查所获得的资料，对杭州湾下湾区的潮混合问题进行了研究：对表征该区潮混合扩散过程的某些特征量，如水平涡动扩散系数、水平涡动交换系数等作出量级估计，并给出涡动交换椭圆；估算了控制这一河口区域盐量平衡与动量平衡的各项物理过程的相对重要性，为进一步开展杭州湾下湾区潮混合过程的观测和理论研究提供依据。     

Ecological studies on the Hydromedusae, Siphonophores and Ctenophores in the Xiamen Harbour and adjacent waters

- This paper deals with species composition, seasonal change and horizontal distribution of the Hydromedusae (Hyd.), Siphonophores (Sip.) and Ctenophores (Cte.) and their relationship to the environmental factors. Materials from 17 stations in the Xiamen Harbour and adjacent waters were taken once monthly for the period from Sep. 1980 to Aug. 1981. The results indicate that for the dominant species of Phialidium folleatum, Lensia subtiloides and Pleurobrachia globosa , the total annual number of species has one peak and the total annual number of individual has one peak and two secondary peaks. On the basis of their ecological characteristice, the Hydromedusae, Siphonophores and Ctenophores found in the region investigated may be divided into the following ecological groups: estuarine group, neritic group and oceanic group. Their seasonal succession is correlated with the relative intensity of several water systems.
