Well defined emission spectra were observed from plumes generated from underwater solids after excitation using a single laser pulse of duration less than 10 ns. It is demonstrated that an increase in water pressure from 0.1 to 30MPa (300 atm) does not have a significant effect on the intensity and broadness of the observed spectral lines. Shadowgraph images demonstrate that even at pressures of 30MPa, beyond the critical pressure of water, cavitation occurs around the ablated region. Furthermore, it is demonstrated that during the early stages, less than 1 µs, after irradiation the size of the cavity is largely independent of the external fluid pressure for pressures up to 30MPa. It is suggested that the high pressure shock wave induced by the focused laser dominates the local pressure regime for close to 1 µs after irradiation and generates a transient low pressure region in which a cavity can form for the plume to expand into. Measurements of craters formed in the solids after ablation at different pressures demonstrate that the amount of material ablated by the laser stays within the same order for all hydrostatic pressures tested. The results of this study suggest that laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy is, in principle, a technique suitable for in situ elemental analysis of both shallow water sediments and deep sea minerals.","PeriodicalId":19442,"journal":{"name":"OCEANS'11 MTS/IEEE KONA","volume":"61 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83689130","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This reaction is extremely important to the study of Ocean Acidification (OA) and is the critical technical driver in the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute's (MBARI) Free Ocean CO2 Enrichment (FOCE) experiments. The deep water FOCE science experiments are conducted at depths beyond scuba diver reach and demand that a valid perturbation experiment operate at a stable yet naturally fluctuating lower pH condition and avoid large or rapid pH variation as well as incomplete reactions, when we expose an experimental region or sample. Therefore, the technical requirement is to create a CO2 source in situ that is stable and well controlled. After extensive research and experimentation MBARI has developed the ability to create an in situ source of CO2 enriched seawater (ESW) for distribution and subsequent use in an ocean acidification experiment. The system mates with FOCE, but can be used in conjunction with other CO2 experimental applications in deep water. The ESW system is completely standalone from FOCE.","PeriodicalId":19442,"journal":{"name":"OCEANS'11 MTS/IEEE KONA","volume":"1 1","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88640665","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, authentic scientific inquiry opportunities that are outdoors and/or associated with the marine environment have limitations related to risk liability, funding availability, complicated logistics to get students to study sites, and time away from other classes for all-day field trips. Emerging technologies utilizing the internet and the concept of ‘telepresence’ can provide a means to overcome many of these obstacles by ‘bringing the place to the classroom’. In a pilot program executed by the Hawai'i Institute of Marine Biology (HIMB) at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa and in partnership with the Massachusetts Institute of Technology Sea Grant's Autonomous Underwater Vehicle (AUV) Laboratory, we demonstrate the application of using cutting edge ocean engineering technology, in the form of a mini autonomous submarine vehicle, to expose students to ‘outdoor’ marine science experiences they otherwise might be unlikely to get. The AUV is controlled interactively through the internet, transmitting data and images in real time directly to students in the classroom. HIMB scientists developed marine science lessons that harness the capabilities of the AUV, emphasizing the process of scientific inquiry and investigation. The lessons were also designed to relate science topics to broader environmental issues affecting Hawai'i's ecosystems. In this paper, we provide a brief overview of the pilot project and present preliminary student evaluation results that provide evidence for the potential of this approach in science education in Hawai'i and beyond.","PeriodicalId":19442,"journal":{"name":"OCEANS'11 MTS/IEEE KONA","volume":"25 1","pages":"1-7"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77601542","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Understanding the changes to the near- and far-field hydrodynamics is necessary to assess optimal placement. MHK projects will convert energy (momentum) from the system, altering water velocities and potentially water quality and sediment transport as well. Maximum site efficiency for MHK power projects must balance with the requirement of avoiding environmental harm. This study is based on previous modification to an existing flow, sediment dynamics, and water-quality code (SNL-EFDC) where a simulation of an experimental flume is used to qualify, quantify, and visualize the influence of MHK energy generation. Turbulence and device parameters are calibrated against wake data from a flume experiment out of the University of Southampton (L. Myers and A. S. Bahaj, “Near wake properties of horizontal axis marine current turbines,” in Proceedings of the 8th European Wave and Tidal Energy Conference, 2009, pp. 558–565) to produce verified simulations of MHK-device energy removal. To achieve a realistic velocity deficit within the wake of the device, parametric studies using the nonlinear, model-independent, parameter estimators PEST and DAKOTA were compared to determine parameter sensitivities and optimal values for various constants in the flow and turbulence closure equations. The sensitivity analyses revealed that the Smagorinski subgrid-scale horizontal momentum diffusion constant and the k-ε kinetic energy dissipation rate constant (Cε4) were the two most important parameters influencing wake profile and dissipation at 10 or more device diameters downstream as they strongly influence how the wake mixes with the bulk flow. These results verify the model, which can now be used to perform MHK-array distribution and optimization studies.","PeriodicalId":19442,"journal":{"name":"OCEANS'11 MTS/IEEE KONA","volume":"50 1","pages":"1-9"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91390388","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This may cause disturbance to marine life and there is evidence that this noise can cause reactions on the behavior of fish resulting in reduced catches. This has resulted in severe conflict of interest between the petroleum and the fishing industry. The ultimate goal of the work that is presented here is to be able to estimate the minimum distance from a seismic survey to avoid significant negative effects on fish behavior and fish catch. We have developed a propagation model, based on ray theory that can deal with range dependent bathymetry and depth dependent sound speed profiles. This paper describes briefly the model and its capabilities, followed by the presentation of several relevant examples of propagation over range dependent bathymetry with typical sound speed profiles from different geographical locations and seasons. The main conclusion is that both the bathymetry, the geo-acoustic properties of the bottom and the oceanographic conditions have significant impact on the propagation of seismic noise. The focusing of sound, caused by the bathymetry and/or sound speed profile, may create regions with hot spots where the sound level is significantly higher than normally expected. Common range dependent sound propagation methods for cylindrical and spherical spreading, e.g. −10log(r) and −20log(r), are also compared to the modeled results.","PeriodicalId":19442,"journal":{"name":"OCEANS'11 MTS/IEEE KONA","volume":"4 1","pages":"1-8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"73118576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The unprecedented amplitudes measured at deep-ocean tsunameter sites offshore Japan during the propagation phase of the 11 March 2011 Tohoku tsunami provide an atypical scenario of high signal-to-noise ratios by which to evaluate the historic nature of this tsunami in terms of signal isolation for the forecasting of tsunami amplitude and inundation along Pacific Basin coastlines.
