Other links between climate modes of variability and Antarctic coastal winds can produce a similar coastal wave ocean response.

Not exact matches

Much of Pres. Donald Trump's Mar - a-Lago country club in Palm Beach, Fla., sits less than two meters above the Atlantic Ocean, meaning big parts of the resort could rest beneath the waves by the end of this century as seas rise in response to global warming.

The second goal, however, is to learn more about the ice shelf itself, including its response to long - period ocean waves that lift and drop it.

Upper ocean dynamics and interdisciplinary processes; structure of the oceanic surface boundary layer; air - sea interaction and the oceanic response to surface forcing; internal waves; fronts; oceanographic instrumentation and observing techniques.

This classic pranayama practice, known for its soft, soothing sound similar to breaking ocean waves, can further enhance the relaxation response of slow breathing, says Patricia Gerbarg, MD, assistant clinical professor of psychiatry at New York Medical College and co-author of The Healing Power of the Breath.

MD wave fades moving deeper into SH due to lack of land mass & land impediment to antarctic circumpolar (southern ocean) flow --(need midlatitude zonal land - sea contrast for meridional deflection of westerlies = differential land - sea equator - pole column - integrated - temperature gradient response to solar forcing, easily measured using a simple wavelet tachometer, which detects externally governed universal constraint)

Models incorporating stratospheric layers — despite differing greatly in their formulation of fundamental processes such as atmosphere - ocean coupling, clouds or gravity wave drag — show consistent responses in the troposphere.

Forced Rossby waves occur as a response of the midtroposhere and high - troposphere atmospheric circulation to the external diabatic and orographic forcing (25, 39, 40), which arises, e.g., from the thermal contrast between land and oceans as well as from mountain ranges.

With the late - summer ice edge located farther north than it used to be, storms produce larger waves and more coastal erosion.5 An additional contributing factor is that coastal bluffs that were «cemented» by ice - rich permafrost are beginning to thaw in response to warmer air and ocean waters, and are therefore more vulnerable to erosion.22 Standard defensive adaptation strategies to protect coastal communities from erosion, such as use of rock walls, sandbags, and riprap, have been largely unsuccessful.23 Several coastal communities are seeking to relocate to escape erosion that threatens infrastructure and services but, because of high costs and policy constraints on use of federal funds for community relocation, only one Alaskan village has begun to relocate (see also Ch.

There is new information that lack of sea ice causes storms to produce larger waves and more coastal erosion.5 An additional contributing factor is that coastal bluffs that were «cemented» by permafrost are beginning to thaw in response to warmer air and ocean waters, and are therefore more vulnerable to erosion.22 Standard defensive adaptation strategies to protect coastal communities from erosion such as use of rock walls, sandbags, and riprap have been largely unsuccessful.23 There remains considerable uncertainty, however, about the spatial patterns of future coastal erosion.

Rossby waves are a natural phenomenon in the atmospheres and oceans of planets that form in response to the rotation of the planet.
