GPS kinematic positioning for the airborne laser altimetry at Long Valley, California
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999)
The object of this thesis is to develop a reliable algorithm and software for em-level kinematic GPS (Global Positioning System) data analysis. To assess the accuracy of the software, we use it to determine the trajectory ...
Phase multipath estimation for global positioning system (GPS) using signal-to-noise-ratio (SNR) data
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997)
Effects of deformation on compressibility and permeability of Carrara marble
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1995)
A diagnostic study of extratropical winter low frequency variability of northern hemisphere
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1996)
Southern hemispheric zonal circulation during the IGY
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1962)
A single cable underwater television system
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1961)
Natural variability in eastern tropical Pacific nitrous oxide emissions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2018)
Nitrous oxide (N2O) is a powerful greenhouse gas and ozone depleting substance, but its natural sources remain poorly constrained. Marine emissions are likely much higher than IPCC estimates predict, due to unusually high ...
Nitrogen cycling in oxygen deficient zones : insights from [delta]¹⁵N and [delta]¹⁸O of nitrite and nitrate
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
The stable isotopes, [delta]¹⁵N and [delta]¹⁸O, of nitrite and nitrate can be powerful tools used to interpret nitrogen cycling in the ocean. They are particularly useful in regions of the ocean where there are multiple ...
Equilibration of an atmosphere by geostrophic turbulence
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
A major question for climate studies is to quantify the role of turbulent eddy fluxes in maintaining the observed atmospheric mean state. It has been argued that eddy fluxes keep the mid-latitude atmosphere in a state that ...
Study of induced seismicity for reservoir characterization
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)
The main goal of the thesis is to characterize the attributes of conventional and unconventional reservoirs through passive seismicity. The dissertation is comprised of the development and applications of three new methods, ...
