      <title>OCEANOGRAPHY OF THE NEW YORK BIGHT, AUGUST 1974</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/63666</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The physical oceanography of the shelf and slope waters of the New York Bight (Block Island to Cape May) in August of 1974 is described. Temperature, salinity, and density data, presented in surface contours and section profiles, showed the shelf/slope front, a cold core on the shelf, and a salinity core on the slope. Geostrophic currents in the slope water were inferred from the density structure, and showed two anticyclonic eddies with maximum geostrophic velocities of approximately 40 cm. Temperature and salinity profiles indicated shelf/slope mixing related to the eddies.]]></description>

      <title>FIELD TESTING OF DEEP WATER CATHODIC PROTECTION ON THE NORWEGIAN CONTINENTAL SHELF</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/431335</link>
      <description><![CDATA[Field testing has been conducted on the Norwegian Continental Shelf (Tromsoflaket and Troll field) at depths down to 500m, using automatic logging units for in situ monitoring of cathodic protection (CP) and environmental data.  The main objective was to establish design data for the CP of future installations in these areas and at great water depths.  Very high design current densities (CDs) were necessary to achieve rapid and efficient cathodic polarization at Tromsoflaket and Troll.  The polarization behaviour of steel cathodes and galvanic anodes has been related to seawater environmental parameters, CP design, and the characteristics of the calcareous layers formed.  The results illustrate that a high initial design CD promotes the formation of dense calcareous layers, thereby reducing the long-term current consumption for maintenance of CP.  Once such layers has formed, variations in seawater flow had very little effect on the cathodic CD.  No incidences of cathodic depolarization related to erosion or spalling of calcareous layers were registered.]]></description>

      <title>HEAVY-MINERAL POTENTIAL OF SHELF AREAS: A REVIEW</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/433984</link>
      <description><![CDATA[After a discussion of the principles of heavy-mineral enrichment and shelf sedimentary history, four models are described which can explain the genesis of heavy-mineral deposits in shelf areas. On the basis of these models, the heavy-mineral potential of most shelf areas is estimated to be significantly lower than the potential of their neighbouring coastal plains.]]></description>

      <title>THE TRAPPING AND SCATTERING OF TOPOGRAPHIC WAVES BY ESTUARIES AND HEADLANDS</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/438485</link>
      <description><![CDATA[This paper extends recent theoretical work on sub-inertial trapped modes in bays to consider trapping of energy in the neighbourhood of estuary mouths on coastal shelves. The qualitative form of the theoretical predictions compares well with recent observations on the Scotian Shelf. The trapping and scattering of shelf waves is modelled for a shelf-estuary system by considering barotropic waves in a straight, infinite channel with an attached rectangular estuary or interrupted by a rectangular headland. Assuming the depth to increase exponentially with distance from the coast and expanding in cross-shelf modes, reduces the problem to a system of real linear algebraic equations.]]></description>

      <title>Q-ROUTE SURVEY DEMONSTRATION PROJECT OPERATIONAL ASSESSMENT; FINAL REPT</title>
      <link>https://trid.trb.org/View/406192</link>
      <description><![CDATA[The Q-Route survey mission involves exploratory ocean floor reconnaissance and the location/relocation of mine-like objects along established routes from the entrance of major U.S. ports to the continental shelf. This report presents results of a joint U.S. Coast Guard - U.S. Navy Q-Route Survey project conducted in New London, CT.  USCG vessels were equipped with commercially-available equipment and systems, and manned by a mix of USCG and USN personnel. Results of at-sea operational evaluations intended to measure the effectiveness of an integrated navigation/data management system in meeting Q-route survey mission requirements are discussed. An integrated system configuration comprised of side scan sonar, display/data management, and navigation/positioning subsystem was found to be highly effective for conducting detailed Q-route surveys. USCG vessels are suitable platforms from which to conduct coastal Q-route survey operations. No significant vessel-related constraints were associated with available working space, minimum vessel speed, or electrical power. A joint-service approach to Q- route survey operations effectively uses existing skills and talent. With only minimum training assigned USN personnel operated the equipment consoles while USCG personnel piloted the vessel and deployed/recovered the side scan sonar and acoustic tracker hydrophone. The most critical factor impacting the effective conduct of route survey operations was the availability and performance of the radio navigation system. During these trials Differential Loran-C provided a predictable, geodetic accuracy of 23 meters, 2 DRMS.]]></description>

      <description><![CDATA[A computerized simulation model, the Oil Spill Risk Analysis (OSRA), is used to provide the quantitative basis for oil spill risk assessment in the preparation of environmental impact statements as part of the offshore leasing process. The oceanographic research program which supports the OSRA model is outlined, with emphasis on the application of study results for each OCS (Outer Continental Shelf) region: Atlantic, Pacific, Gulf of Mexico, and Alaska. The representation of winds and surface currents used to simulate the transport of spilled oil (as modeled by OSRA) is discussed.]]></description>
