INTERNAL waves in the ocean are of critical importance both to the large scale oceanic energy and momentum balance and to smaller scale oceanic processes. Most discussions of the physics of these ...

The group focuses on observing and modeling coastal processes including beach evolution, cliff erosion, and nearshore waves. A specialized team of oceanographers, engineers, and graduate students ...

A satellite-mounted instrument has in just one year produced higher-resolution imagery of the global seafloor than that from comparable systems over the past 30 years.

Scientist Burke Hales says one of the things holding back the development of ocean wave energy is the lack of places to test the equipment. But he hopes his new facility off the coast of Oregon ...
