Data Analysis Methods in Physical Oceanography
Author: Richard E. ThomsonPublisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0080477003
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 654
Book Description
Data Analysis Methods in Physical Oceanography is a practical referenceguide to established and modern data analysis techniques in earth and oceansciences. This second and revised edition is even more comprehensive with numerous updates, and an additional appendix on 'Convolution and Fourier transforms'. Intended for both students and established scientists, the fivemajor chapters of the book cover data acquisition and recording, dataprocessing and presentation, statistical methods and error handling,analysis of spatial data fields, and time series analysis methods. Chapter 5on time series analysis is a book in itself, spanning a wide diversity oftopics from stochastic processes and stationarity, coherence functions,Fourier analysis, tidal harmonic analysis, spectral and cross-spectralanalysis, wavelet and other related methods for processing nonstationarydata series, digital filters, and fractals. The seven appendices includeunit conversions, approximation methods and nondimensional numbers used ingeophysical fluid dynamics, presentations on convolution, statisticalterminology, and distribution functions, and a number of importantstatistical tables. Twenty pages are devoted to references. Featuring:• An in-depth presentation of modern techniques for the analysis of temporal and spatial data sets collected in oceanography, geophysics, and other disciplines in earth and ocean sciences.• A detailed overview of oceanographic instrumentation and sensors - old and new - used to collect oceanographic data.• 7 appendices especially applicable to earth and ocean sciences ranging from conversion of units, through statistical tables, to terminology and non-dimensional parameters. In praise of the first edition: "(...)This is a very practical guide to the various statistical analysis methods used for obtaining information from geophysical data, with particular reference to oceanography(...)The book provides both a text for advanced students of the geophysical sciences and a useful reference volume for researchers." Aslib Book Guide Vol 63, No. 9, 1998 "(...)This is an excellent book that I recommend highly and will definitely use for my own research and teaching." EOS Transactions, D.A. Jay, 1999 "(...)In summary, this book is the most comprehensive and practical source of information on data analysis methods available to the physical oceanographer. The reader gets the benefit of extremely broad coverage and an excellent set of examples drawn from geographical observations." Oceanography, Vol. 12, No. 3, A. Plueddemann, 1999 "(...)Data Analysis Methods in Physical Oceanography is highly recommended for a wide range of readers, from the relative novice to the experienced researcher. It would be appropriate for academic and special libraries." E-Streams, Vol. 2, No. 8, P. Mofjelf, August 1999

Oceanographic Management Information System (OMIS): The Navy Oceanographic Requirements Database, Development Phase
Author: S. WasowskiPublisher:
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 13
Book Description
The Navy's Oceanographic Requirements (NOR) relate to the oceanographic/environmental needs of Navy systems and fleet units in a wide variety of scientific and technological disciplines. The NOR database is a collection of information pertaining to the current needs expressed by the fleet or derived from system specifications. The objective of the database is to provide an information tool to management. Data elements include the scientific and technical parameters related to systems and requirements, priority and action agency. The same closed vocabulary keyword system used in the Navy Oceanographic Program (NOP) database is used to provide correlation between the datasets. This database has been turned over to the Naval Oceanographic Office, Information Systems Office, for operation as part of the overall Oceanographic Management Information System. (Author).
