Satellite synthetic aperture radar detection of Delaware Bay plumes: Jet-like feature analysis
TL;DR: In this article, a morphological interpretation of the image features was used to interpret synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images of Delaware Bay plumes taken by the RADARSAT-1 (Canadian Radar Satellite) and ERS-2 (European Remote Sensing satellite) satellites during a period from summer 1996 to spring 1997.
Journal ArticleDOI
Progress in research of submesoscale processes in the South China Sea
TL;DR: In this paper, the submesoscale processes are defined according to both spatial and dynamic scales, and divided into four subcategories as sub-scale waves, sub-mesoscales vortexes, submes-oscale shelf processes, and sub-scalesoscale turbulence.
Journal ArticleDOI
Finite element analysis of suction penetration seepage field of bucket foundation platform with application to offshore oilfield development
TL;DR: In this article, the seepage field generated by suction penetration of a bucket foundation into sea floor is numerically simulated with a finite element method, and the water head and its gradient on both sides of the bucket wall are computed and the results are applied to the calculation of penetration resistance versus penetration depth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deep‐water seamount wakes on SEASAT SAR image in the Gulf Stream region
TL;DR: In this article, a SEASAT synthetic aperture radar (SAR) image taken over the Gulf Stream region shows streak-like patterns, which are interpreted as surface roughness imprints of the seamount wakes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Space shuttle observations of open ocean oil slicks
TL;DR: In this article, the authors observed oil slicks along a ship wake in the northern Arabian Sea and determined that turbulent diffusion and wind drag were the dominant forcing for the oil slick spreading.
