Graduate Student Training in Engineering: Instrumenting the Continental Shelf Wave Bottom Boundary Layer
1998
Williams, III, Albert J.
My long-term goals are to develop instruments to observe physical phenomena responsible for mixing the ocean, suspending and transporting sediment at the bottom, and entraining air and momentum at the surface under wind and waves. Education of students within the WHOI/MIT Joint Graduate Program in Oceanographic Engineering enables me to achieve these long term goals if I can train particular students in measurement and instrumentation. My objective in this effort is to train a student in making critical on measurements with these instruments to understand the presence of waves, heat and salt flux on the bottom boundary layer on the continental shelf.
