Accomplishments in FY 98
Observations show a connection between decadal changes in transport, sea surface temperatures and the North Atlantic Index (NAO).
Collaboration with Japan and Taiwan for voltage transport measurement of the Kuroshio Current.
The robust time series processing that was developed to remove the ionosheric induced voltages has had industrial applications for geophysical electrical prospecting and for noise reduction in the electromagnetic detection of earthquakes.
Monitoring Transport of Ocean Currents
Plans for FY 99
- Instrument the retired Bahama 1 cable (West Palm Beach to Eight Mile Rock).
- Transfer technology for cable observations to AOML. Collaborate with AOML on the measurements during the technology transfer.
-
Continue industrial applications of robust time series processing.
-
Continue applications of noise reduction methods for earthquake detection.
