Backward-in-time methods to simulate large-scale transport and mixing in the ocean

SV Prants - Physica Scripta, 2015 - iopscience.iop.org
In oceanography and meteorology, it is important to know not only where water or air
masses are headed for, but also where they came from as well. For example, it is important …

Random matrix theory for an adiabatically-varying oceanic acoustic waveguide

Fluctuations of refractivity as a systematic error source in radio occultations

ME Gorbunov, VV Vorob'ev, KB Lauritsen - Radio Science, 2015 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
The fact that fluctuations of refractivity may result in a systematic negative shift of the phase
of waves propagating in a random medium is known for a long time. Tatarskii was the first to …
