| Abstract | "Summary form only given". HF radars measure synoptic surface currents near the coast at time intervals like one hour with spatial resolution of a few kilometers. Although increasing numbers of HF radars make synoptic surface current maps routinely available, these maps are not useful for environmental or ecological studies, which require quantitative descriptions of near surface transport to study the impacts of upwelling, the ecology of nearshore habitats, or the effects of harmful algal blooms or oil spills. Particle studies provide a natural way to reveal synoptic surface transport properties embedded in a synoptic Eulerian velocity archive. Particle trajectories cannot easily be computed directly from an HF radar surface current archive, since the measurements contain space and time gaps and do not extend to the shoreline. Here we apply a technique called normal mode analysis (NMA) to objectively map HF radar surface current archives in Monterey Bay so that particle trajectories can be reliably computed. The NMA technique uses two sets of basis functions (vorticity modes and divergence modes) and exactly enforces no normal flow at the coastline and a specified normal flow (obtained from the radar measurements themselves) along the open boundaries. Spatial filtering is applied to reduce white noise, and an eight hour low-pass filter (with a sharp cutoff) is used to limit large accelerations while preserving semidiurnal fluctuations. The resulting objective maps typically recover about 70% of the mean kinetic energy in the radar measurements. This is the first of three talks describing the computation of synoptic maps of particle properties from HF radar measurements in Monterey Bay. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
