Practical Methods for Observing and Forecasting Ocean Waves by Means of Wave Spectra and Statistics. (Reprinted 1971)
(U.S. Naval Hydrographic Office, Washington, DC, 1955)Wave research has made great strides during the past 10 years. The spectrum of ocean waves was first studied in Britain by G. E. R. Deacon, N. F. Barber, and F. Ursell. The study of wave spectra was continued in the ... -
Manual of Harmonic Analysis and Prediction of Tides. [ Revised 1940 edition reprinted 1958 with corrections, reprinted 2001]
(United States Government Printing Office, Washington, DC, 1958)This volume was designed primarily as a working manual for the United States Coast and Geodetic Survey and describes the procedure used in this office for the harmonic analysis and prediction of tides and tidal currents... -
Manual of tide observations.
(United States Government Printing Office, Washington, DC, 1965)Contains instructions for observing and recording the rise and fall of the tide and for making necessary reductions to determine the datum planes and the nonharmonic quantities published in the tide tables. -
Manual on international oceanographic data exchange.
(UNESCO, Paris, 1965)The purpose of this manual (see Part I), is to assemble in convenient form for the guidance and use of practising oceanographers the various documents concerned with the assembly and disssemination of oceanographic data ... -
Determination of photosynthetic pigments in sea-water.
(UNESCO, Paris, France, 1966)The present volume treats various approaches and recommendations for standardization of determinations of photosynthetic pigments, especially chlorophyll in phytoplankton. Standardization of methods in biological ... -
A Practical Handbook of Seawater Analysis, 2nd edition.
(Fisheries Research Board of Canada, Ottawa, Canada, 1972)The basic purpose of the book is unchanged. It is not designed as a compendium of methods of seawater analysis but consists of full working instructions of certain procedures used by the authors and their colleagues in ... -
Variability of Tidal Datums and Accuracy in Determining Datums from Short Series of Observations.
(NOAA, NOS Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services, Silver Spring, MD, 1974)Tidal datum planes are used to determine the positions of boundaries, as planes of reference for maps and charts, in the design of coastal structures, and to delineate the extent of land uses in coastal areas. Even ... -
Guide for establishing a National Oceanographic Data Centre. 1975. [OBSOLETE]
(UNESCO, Paris, France, 1975)The objectives of the Guide for Establishing a National Oceanographic Centre are: 1. To provide national authorities considering the creation of an NODC with the background for understanding what elements are generally ... -
Guide to oceanographic and marine meteorological instruments and observing practices.
(UNESCO, Paris, France, 1975)This guide is intended to provide information on commonly used oceanographic instruments and accepted observing practices. Since many of the observations in this category require supporting meteorological data, relevant ... -
International catalogue of ocean data stations. Amendment No. 1, February 1976
(UNESCO, Paris, France, 1976) -
Marine environmental data information referral catalogue (MEDI Catalogue). [SUPERSEDED by http://hdl.handle.net/11329/165]
(UNESCO, Paris, France, 1979)This first edition of the Marine Environmental Data Information Referral Catalogue (MEDI Catalogue 1) has been prepared by the IOC in response to resolution IX-30 of the ninth session of the IOC Assembly. This catalogue ... -
The National Tidal Datum Convention of 1980.
(NOAA, National Ocean Survey, Silver Spring, MD, 1980) -
Estimating Accuracies Of Tidal Datums From Short Term Observations.
(NOAA, NOS Center for Operational Oceanographic Products and Services, Silver Spring, MD, 1981)This paper develops multiple curvilinear regression equations that estimate the accuracy of computed 19 year equivalent tidal datums at tide stations with one or more months of data. These regression equations are simple ... -
Computer applications to the tides in the National Ocean Survey: supplement to Manual of harmonic analysis and prediction of tides (Special Publication 98)
(NOAA, National Ocean Survey, Silver Spring, MD, 1982) -
Guide for responsible national oceanographic data centres - Annex II.
(UNESCO, Paris, France, 1982)The past two decades have seen a remarkable expansion in scientific investigations of the world's oceans, both on a national and international co-operative basis. The results of these ... -
Algorithms for the computation of fundamental properties of seawater.
(UNESCO, Paris, 1983)This report lists algorithms for the computation of fundamental properties of seawater for implementing and standardizing computer programs for oceanographic data processing. The algorithms cover the following: conductivity ... -
Chemical methods for use in marine environment monitoring. [CHECK STATUS]
(UNESCO, Paris, France, 1983)The Manual contains descriptions of chemical methods for analysis of parameters of general interest in programmes for chemical oceanography, as well as for marine environmental monitoring. It is intended for use by marine ... -
A Manual of Chemical and Biological Methods for Seawater Analysis.
(Pergamon Press, Oxford, UK, 1984)An introduction to the quantitative analysis of seawater, describing in detail biological and chemical techniques, which are considered to be amongst those most often used by biological oceanographers. The manual provides ...
