Rapid extraction of dissolved inorganic carbon from seawater and groundwater samples for radiocarbon dating
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)
The focus of this thesis is the design and development of a system for rapid extraction of dissolved inorganic carbon from seawater and groundwater samples for radiocarbon dating. The Rapid Extraction of Dissolved Inorganic ...
Passive wake detection using seal whisker-inspired sensing
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2015)
This thesis is motivated by a series of biological experiments that display the harbor seal's extraordinary ability to track the wake of an object several seconds after it has swum by. They do so despite having auditory ...
Measurements and dynamics of multiple scale bedforms in tidally energetic environments
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)
The presence of superimposed bedforms, where smaller bedforms exist on larger bedforms, is ubiquitous to energetic tidal environments. Due to their wide range in scale, it is difficult to simultaneously observe these ...
