Airborne Remote Sensing of Breaking Waves with Implications for Gas Exchange
It is shown that airborne remote sensing can potentially relate gas mixing effects within a temporally evolving breaking wave to relectivity changes, and can identify the intensity of...

The Enhancement of Air-Sea Gas Exchange by Oceanic Whitecapping
The hypothesis that oceanic whitecaps and the accompanying buoyant bubble plumes greatly enhance the air-sea transfer coefficient of gases subject to liquid phase control has recently...

Oceanic CO₂ Uptake and Future Atmospheric CO₂ Concentrations
The global pattern of water column inventories of bomb-produced ¹⁴C suggests that an upwelling of bomb ¹⁴C-free...

Parameterization of Air-Ocean Gas Transfer
A renewal-type model, based on the physics of a molecular sublayer, allows the derivation of parameters to describe air-ocean gas transfer and the temperature difference across the cold...

Mechanics Computing in 1990's and Beyond
This proceedings, Mechanics Computing in 1990's and Beyond, consists of extended abstracts of the papers presented at the Engineering...

Case History of the Point Roberts Marina
This paper presents a fifteen year history of the design performance of the Point Roberts Marina. The 1,000 berth small craft harbor is located on the Strait of Georgia, immediately north...

Full Use of Waterfront in Wakayama Marina City
At Wakanoura Bay, in the center of Wakayama Shimotsu Port, Wakayama Marina City Project has been under construction. This project is expected to play a leading role in the development...

Marine Architecture and the Maritime Village
This paper discusses the types of planning, architecture and urban form appropriate to a maritime village. It outlines the design principles of waterside development and advocates the...

Conflicts Between Pleasure Boats and Fishing Boats at Marinas in Japan
At present, some half of the marinas operating in Japan have conflicts of various kinds relating to the navigation of pleasure boats. This study discusses the findings of a study on 365...

The Design & Construction of Marina Martinique, S. Africa
Marina Martinique is a coastal residential marina in the eastern Cape Province of South Africa which will ultimately accommodate 730 moorings and 1100 low rise residential units, most...

Air-Water Mass Transfer
This monograph, Air-Water Mass Transfer: Selected Papers from the Second International Symposium on Gas Transfer at Water Surfaces, consists of papers presented at the Symposium which...

On the Reliability of Offshore Platforms Against Random Sea Waves and Earthquake Motions
Dynamic response of offshore structures to random sea waves and strong earthquake motions is investigated. The wave-structure interaction is represented using the generalized Morison equation...

Stochastic Evaluation of Landing Pier Construction
This paper discusses the process of determining the magnitude of external force such as wind and wave pressure exerted on marine structures under construction, and the learning curve of...

A Seismic PRA Procedure in Japan and its Application to a Building Perforance Safety Estimation: Part 1. Seismic Hazard Analysis
A method for seismic hazard evaluation which deals with response spectrum information is presented. A local city near Tokyo facing the Pacific Ocean is selected for the case study. It...

Some Insight in Autoregressive (AR) Spectral Modeling
The difficulties associated with the determination of reliable autoregressive (AR) approximations of the Pierson-Moskowitz and Davenport spectra are examined from the standpoint of developing...

Kernel Method in Importance Sampling Density Estimation
The use of the kernel method to estimate the optimal importance sampling density is introduced. This method requires samples generated from an initial direct Monte Carlo run to construct...

Continuous Simulation of Gaussian Processes with Given Spectrum
A new algorithm, to be called MIMA (modulated interpolated moving average) allows stationary Gaussian processes with given spectral density to be simulated in continuous time, while providing...
