Page content last updated: 5/28/2004 P hysical Oceanography The Pacific OCS Region now, as in the past, supports a large effort in physical oceanographic research. Physical oceanography includes the study of ocean currents, or "circulations" and how the currents in the ocean respond to various forcing mechanisms, such as the wind. This topic is of crucial importance to MMS because of the fact that any oil spilled into the ocean will immediately begin to move under the influence of winds and currents. Currently physical oceanographic studies are being carried out as part of a cooperative agreement between the Scripps Institution of Oceanography (University of California at San Diego) and MMS. The primary focus of this effort is the circulation in the Santa Barbara Channel where most of the oil from the west coast federal outer continental shelf is produced. The Center for Coastal Studies at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography has been working with MMS since 1990 on the Santa Barbara Channel - Santa Maria Basin Studies which is aimed at providing a clear picture of the circulation over the continental shelf on either side of Point Conception.

Atmospheric, Oceanic and Planetary Physics Department of Physics Physical Oceanography Research in physical oceanography Our primary research interests are in describing the state of the global ocean in space and time and understanding the dynamic and thermodynamic processes that maintain this state. Ultimately, we are motivated to understand the ocean's role in Earth's climate and the physical analogies between the ocean and other planetary atmospheres. Coupled ocean-atmosphere modelling A variety of models are used for studying the interaction between the atmosphere and oceans. This interaction is strongest in the tropical regions, particularly over the Pacific ocean, where it gives rise to `El Nino' conditions and leads to climate variability on time-scales of a few months to a few years. The ultimate object of our work is to test the predictability of the tropical ocean-atmosphere system. Our models range from fully comprehensive models of the atmosphere and ocean to models of intermediate complexity that retain only the essential physics. In addition, models are being used to understand the nature of the decadal variability of the wind-driven and thermohaline circulations of the ocean and their climate manifestations. Much of the work is carried out in collaboration with other major modelling centres. General circulation of the ocean Understanding the key mechanisms controlling the rate at which the ocean interior is refreshed by surface water is a critical issue facing oceanographers interested in climate. A blend of methods is used to approach this problem, including numerical models of the oceanic circulation on parallel computers, observations of dissolved transient tracers (CFCs and radiosotopes) from research cruises and non-linear statistical techniques. The combination leads to improved knowledge of the general ciruculation of the ocean and exchange with the atmosphere and hence enhanced understanding of the ocean's role in shaping the Earth's climate.

Physical Oceanography Physical Oceanography Career Information Undergraduate Program Graduate Program ... Outreach Overview The goal of physical oceanography is to measure and understand evolving patterns of circulation and water properties over a wide range of scales, from turbulent microstructure through basin-scale gyres and the global overturning circulation. Ocean circulation and physical processes are studied in the context of important multidisciplinary issues: the dynamics and predictability of global climate, and the sustainability of human use in coastal and estuarine regions. Research in physical oceanography involves diverse approaches that include theory, direct observation, and computer simulation. Read More. The diversity of the program in physical oceanography is greatly increased by numerous joint and affiliate positions with two world-class research laboratories, the University's Applied Physics Laboratory and with the nearby NOAA Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory, where many of our graduate students choose to do their research. Areas of graduate student research include: Acoustical Oceanography and Ocean Acoustics The Ocean in Climate Coastal and Estuarine Processes Geophysical Fluid Dynamics ... Waves, Turbulence and Mixing

our group programs marine mammal information resources for teachers marine science careers ... sea lions at PIER 39 Careers in Oceanography For many students, oceanography conjures up visions of Cousteau, scuba diving, coral reefs, and exotic fishes. Indeed, many students have misconceptions about what an oceanographer does and perhaps, more importantly, what training the profession requires. Oceanography is a science. Interested high school students should prepare for the career by taking courses in algebra through calculus, biology, chemistry, physics, and computer science. In college, you should major in general sciences or specifically marine sciences or engineering. Most oceanographers continue on to a graduate program. Graduate schools divide oceanography into five major subdivisions: biological oceanography, physical oceanography, chemical oceanography, geological oceanography, and oceanographic engineering. Depending on the institution, masters and/or doctoral degrees will be offered. Take care in choosing an advisor, since her/his guidance is critical to your career, and their interests often shape those of their students.

Alan Brandt, Instructor Summary This course will provide an overview of contemporary ocean physics, emphasizing issues of current interest particularly, interdisciplinary processes in the coastal environment. Areas highlighted will include: the effects of the ocean environment on acoustic propagation and reverberation; shallow water effects, coastal oceanography; global warming and climate effects; environmental degradation and pollution; and a review of current and future programs in the Navy and civil sectors. Ocean processes play a key role in understanding the world's climate, weather, and local events in our nearby coast. Physical oceanography encompasses scales from global circulation to the sub-millimeter scales of turbulence and mixing - a range encompassing 12 orders-of-magnitude! Important phenomena affected by physical processes in the ocean include: global warming and climate change; Gulf Stream dynamics that affect seasonal weather patterns; and small-scale mixing processes that govern bio-geo-chemical evolution. Further diversity results from geographic differences: from the ice covered polar regions, that play an important role in the global warming issue; to the equatorial regimes, where the El Nino phenomena affects annual climate and ultimately fisheries; as well as the unique problems in the coastal ocean, which affect the daily lives of a large fraction of earth's inhabitants. Scientists and engineers using ocean environmental data will find this course an invaluable overview to the broad scope of ocean physics. The course provides both the theory and applications needed to understand contemporary issues. A complete set of notes will be supplied to all participants.

Department of Physical Oceanography The Department covers three areas of oceanography: Physics, Chemistry and Geology. Ten research lines are conducted by 18 faculty members. Physical Oceanography Ocean circulation in large and meso-scales: This group investigates the transport of heat and volume of ocean currents on meso and large temporal and spatial scales. The importance of research is associated with the role of oceans as carries of substances and heat over the global surface. For better understanding of global climatic changes, the knowledge of the hydrological cycle and heat balance on ocean surfaces is indispensable. Tide: Research activities of the Institute are carried out in cooperation with the GLOSS (Global Observing Sea Level System) of the IOC, based on the data collected at the permanent tidal gage station in Cananéia. Based on continuous monitoring in situ and via satellite data the temporal sea level series are analyzed to determine the harmonic constants of tides at different locations. Ocean-atmosphere interaction: Hydrodynamic study of continental shelf and estuary: Water circulation on the continental shelf and in estuaries influences the distribution of marine organisms and nutrients, and the transport and diffusion of pollutants, directly. Currents, tides and waves are some of the physical processes that are studied. Study methods include: data sampling based on oceanographic cruises and by moored equipment on the sea floor, data analysis using statistical and graphical methods and numeric and analytical modeling.

President: Dr H Cattle History of Meteorology and Physical Oceanography Special Interest Group History Group newsletter - 2004 Issue 1. History Group newsletter - 2004 Issue 2. The History Group was formed in 1983 and now has 90 members. Anyone interested in the history of meteorology and /or physical oceanography, amateur or professional, is very welcome to join. It is a very active group, run by a committee of 12, including a representative of the Challenger Society for Marine Science (Dr Margaret Deacon). Three meetings are held each year - the AGM in March, a summer meeting/visit, and an autumn one in October. Usually, these are held on Wednesdays or Saturdays, at appropriate venues for the meeting theme, and the Group has occasionally joined in organizing Society meetings. For the Group's summer meeting, a visit is made to a place of interest not only to the Group's members but also to their spouses. Recent venues include Kew Gardens (with meteorological observations in the London area the theme), the Museum of Army Aviation, Middle Wallop, and the RAF Museum, Hendon, for meteorology in the services, and the Old Royal Observatory, Greenwich. Some Group meetings are held jointly with other organizations. In 2000, the 150th anniversary of the founding of the Society in nearly its present form was commemorated at the Royal Society, with the cooperation of the Royal Astronomical Society and others. The Group is currently encouraging joint meetings with other specialist Groups of the Society.
