Model for the frequency spread of backscattered underwater sound based on the facet model of the rough sea surface
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1978/11)A theoretical model for the doppler spread of backscattered acoustic waves from the rough sea surface is described on the basis of the decomposition of the continuous sea-surface spectrum that leads to the concept of facets. ... -
Surface wave spectra
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1975/10)A classification is made of the different types of wave elevation spectra namely lD time spectra, lD spatial spectra, 2D spatial spectra and 3D space-time spectra. Relations with simple single parameter measures of surface ... -
The effects of atmospheric and thermohaline variability on the validation of the GEOSAT altimeter oceanographic signal between Scotland and Iceland
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1987/10)Atmospheric and oceanographic profiles from the area between Scotland and Iceland are analysed in -
Variable sea level and strait flows in the Mediterranean: a theoretical study of the response to meteorological forcing
(NATO. SACLANTCEN, 1983/05)Changes in atmospheric pressure over the Mediterranean are thought to account for a significant part of low frequency sea level changes and associated flow through the Strait of Gibraltar. However, Crepon's (1965) examination ...
