US Arctic waters north of the Bering Strait and west of the Canadian border encompass a
vast area that is usually ice covered for much of the year, but is increasingly experiencing …

This study investigates the effects of premixing oil with chemical dispersant at varying
concentrations on the flow structure and droplet dynamics within a crude oil jet transitioning …

We present experiments on the instability and fragmentation of volumes of heavier liquids
released into lighter immiscible liquids. We focus on the regime defined by small Ohnesorge …

We present results of laboratory experiments conducted to study the evolution, growth, and
spreading rate of a dispersed particle-laden plume produced by a constant inflow into a …

The influence of ambient fluid stratification on buoyant miscible jets and plumes is studied
theoretically and experimentally. Given a fixed set of jet/plume parameters, and an ambient …

Numerous recurrent seep sites were identified in the deep-water environment of the Lower
Congo Basin from the analysis of an extensive dataset of satellite-based synthetic-aperture …

We study the motion of a rigid sphere falling in a two-layer stratified fluid under the action of
gravity in the potential flow regime. Experiments at a moderate Reynolds number of …

Role of Near-Inertial Internal Waves in Subthermocline Diapycnal Mixing in the Northern
Gulf of Mexico in: Journal of Physical Oceanography Volume 45 Issue 12 (2015) Jump to …

Fluorescence sensors mounted on unmanned underwater gliders open new ways of
investigation to detect dissolved hydrocarbons in seawater. A glider was deployed for 20 …

1. BACKGROUND The Gulf of Mexico (GOM) is a semienclosed marginal sea on the
western side of the North Atlantic Ocean. Within the GOM, the Caribbean Current, entering …
