The observed North Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, its Meridional Coherence and Ocean Bottom Pressure
No full textAnalyses of meridional transport time series from the Rapid Climate Change–Meridional Overturning Circulation (RAPID MOC) array at 26°N and from Argo float and altimetry data at 41°N reveal that, at semiannual and longer time scales, the contribution from the western boundary dominates the variability of the North Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (MOC), defined as the transport in the upper 1000 m of the ocean. Because the variability of the western boundary contribution is associated with a geostrophic overturning, it is reflected in independent estimates of transports from gradient of ocean bottom pressure (OBP) relative to and below 1000 m on the continental slope of the western boundary at three nominal latitudes (26°, 39°, and 42.5°N). Time series of western meridional transports relative to and below 1000 m derived from the OBP gradient, or equivalently derived from the transport shear profile, exhibit approximately the same phase relationship between 26° and 39°–42.5°N as the western contribution to the geostrophic MOC time series do: the western geostrophic MOC at 41°N precedes the MOC at 26°N by approximately a quarter of an annual cycle, resulting in a zero correlation at this time scale. This study therefore demonstrates how OBP gradients on basin boundaries can be used to monitor the MOC and its meridional coherence
Manzanar camp map, "Manzanar, a photograph essay"
No full textA map of "Manzanar Relocation Center" reproduced from "Manzanar pilgrimage program" by hand by Chris S. Uyemura. The caption reads, "General plan of the W.R.A. Camp at Manzanar, California. Chris Uyemura Collection." A page from: Manzanar, a photograph essay (csudh_uye_0001).The Chris S. Uyemura Manzanar Photograph Collection consists of a pictorial essay, “Manzanar, a photographic essay,” and additional loose photos, which were compiled and collected by Chris S. Uyemura. The essay contains photographs, texts, and newspaper clippings, and was submitted to Professor Donald T. Hata of the Department of History at CSU Dominguez Hills. The collection depicts the incarceration of people of Japanese ancestry in the Manzanar camp during World War II as well as reflects the events, contrasting with photographs of the Manznar National Historic Site, which illustrates what is left of the camp today. The collection was originally named as “Asian Pacific Studies Collection Box 14.

Continuous improvement of ocean forecasts with underwater gliders
No full textThis work addresses the problem of continuously reducing ocean forecast uncertainty using underwater gliders through the application of a Monte Carlo-based method, and the development of the mechanisms needed to apply that method in the context of ocean forecast models. The solution to the problem is developed in several stages, gradually incorporating the features necessary to apply the solution in the real world.The problem is initially examined in an abstract model of uncertainty, in a single dimension. A method, named the Approximately Optimal Next Action (AONA) method, is developed, analysed, and then evaluated in several scenarios designed to emulate important aspects of the uncertainty structures found in the real ocean.The method is then applied to the Lorenz '96 (L96) model, a simple chaotic system that is often used as a crude representation of physical processes. The token model of uncertainty, whilst useful for understanding the principal challenges in uncertainty reduction, does not describe how to directly quantify uncertainties within other models, and so information entropy is identified as a suitable framework for quantifying these uncertainties, in common with some existing work. The AONA method is reassessed within the L96 model, and compared to some existing approaches, against which it performs favourably.Finally, the mechanisms needed to apply the method to a real ocean model, the UK Met Office FOAM-NEMO MED12 model, are developed. A model ensemble is described, and an analysis of the temporal and spatial distribution of entropy within that ensemble is provided. A model for glider motion is developed that allows the generation of random glider paths, required for the AONA method, that account for the effects of ocean currents. Additionally, a kernel-based method is implemented to provided a mapping between the discrete grid of the ocean model and the continuous real world in which gliders operate
