Abstract:
The water on deck caused on a restrained ship model without forward speed in head waves is studied experimentally by using a transient test technique. A single water-shipping event is induced by the wave packet, and the severity of the interaction is controlled by the wave-packet steepness. Three different bow geometries are considered. Two of them are analytical hull forms, and the last is the ESSO-Osaka tanker. The models are equipped with a transparent-material deck to study the flow-field evolution by image analysis. A vertical wall is placed at a certain distance from the forward perpendicular to mimic the presence of deck structures. Velocity of the shipped water along the deck, pressure field on the deck, and horizontal impact force on the wall are measured. The main fluid-dynamic aspects of the green-water phenomenon are highlighted. For the tested cases, water shipping starts always with the free surface exceeding the freeboard, plunging onto the deck, and forming complex cavities entrapping air inside. The geometry of the air cavity depends on the hull form and the wave steepness. Then the water propagates along the deck. In general, the water front is strongly three dimensional because of the water entering along the deck contour. The interaction of the shipped water with the vertical structure consists of impact, run up-run down cycle, and backward plunging of the water onto the deck, still wetted. The evolution of the pressure field follows that of the water front. Pressure peaks are associated with the impact against the vertical wall, and by the backward plunging of the water on the deck, at the end of the run up-run down cycle of the water. It is shown that both these stages can be of importance from the structural point of view. I am sad to report that Maurizio Landrini was killed in a motorcycle accident on June 26, 2003. Maurizio was an outstanding marine hydrodynamist who had been selected as the 2003 Georg Weinblum Lecturer. He was born on March 2, 1963, and earned his Ph.D. degree in Theoretical and Applied Mechanics at the University of Rome. Except for short periods as a visiting researcher at the Ocean Engineering Laboratory, University of California, Santa Barbara, and the Department of Marine Technology, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, he worked his entire career at INSEAN, the Italian Ship Model Basin. He has authored or coauthored over 80 papers. He was a personal friend and innovative researcher with whom I have spent many hours discussing hydrodynamics. He will be greatly missed in the marine hydrodynamics community. Robert F. Beck

Abstract:
Abstract A summer wind speed maximum extending more than 200 km occurs over water around Point Conception, California, the most extreme bend along the U.S. West Coast. The following several causes were investigated for this wind speed maximum: 1) synoptic conditions, 2) marine layer hydraulic flow effects, 3) diurnal variations, 4) mountain leeside downslope flow, 5) sea surface temperature structure, and 6) island influence. Synoptic conditions set the general wind speed around Point Conception, and these winds are classified as strong, moderate, or weak. The strong wind condition extends about Point Conception, reaching well offshore toward the southwest, and the highest speeds are within 20 km to the south. Moderate wind cases do not extend as far offshore, and they have a moderate maximum wind speed that occurs over a smaller area in the western mouth of the Santa Barbara Channel. The weak wind speed case consists of light and variable winds about Point Conception. Each category occurs about one-third of the time. Atmospheric marine layer hydraulic dynamics dominate the situation after the synoptic condition is set. This includes an expansion fan on the south side of the point and a compression bulge on the north side. The expansion fan significantly increases the wind speeds over a large area that extends to the southwest, south, and east of Point Conception, and the maximum wind speed is increased for the strong and moderate synoptic cases as well. The horizontal sea surface temperature pattern contributes to the sea surface wind maximum through the Froude number, which links the potential temperature difference between the sea surface temperature and the capping inversion temperature with marine layer acceleration in an expansion fan. A greater potential temperature difference across the top of the marine layer also causes more energy to be trapped in the marine layer, instead of escaping upward. The thermally driven flow resulting from differential heating over land in the greater Los Angeles, California, coastal and elevated area to the east is not directly related to the wind speed maximum, either in the Santa Barbara Channel or in the open ocean extending farther offshore. The effects of the thermally driven flow extend only to the east of the Santa Barbara Channel. The downslope flow on the south side of the Santa Ynez Mountains that is generated by winds crossing the Santa Ynez Mountain ridge contributes neither to the high-speed wind maximum in the Santa Barbara channel nor to that extending farther offshore. Fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University–NCAR Mesoscale Model (MM5) simulations do support a weak leeside flow in the upper portions of the Santa Ynez Mountains. The larger Channel Islands have a significant effect on the marine layer flow and the overwater wind structure. One major effect of the Santa Barbara Channel Islands is the extension of the zone of high-speed winds farther to the south than would otherwise be the case.

Abstract:
AbstractAs part of the Precision Atmospheric Marine Boundary Layer Experiment, the University of Wyoming King Air sampled an atmospheric environment conducive to the formation of a hydraulic jump on 24 May 2012 off the coast of California. Strong, northwesterly flow rounded the Point Arguello–Point Conception complex and encountered the remnants of an eddy circulation in the Santa Barbara Channel. The aircraft flew an east–west vertical sawtooth pattern that captured a sharp thinning of the marine boundary layer and the downstream development of a hydraulic jump. In situ observations show a dramatic rise in isentropes and a coincident sudden decrease in wind speeds. Imagery from the Wyoming Cloud Lidar clearly depicts the jump feature via copolarization and depolarization returns. Estimations of MBL depth are used to calculate the upstream Froude number from hydraulic theory. Simulations using the Weather Research and Forecasting Model produced results in agreement with the observations. The innermost domain uses a 900-m horizontal grid spacing and encompasses the transition from supercritical to subcritical flow south of Point Conception. Upstream Froude number estimations from the model compare well to observations. A strongly divergent wind field, consistent with expansion fan dynamics, is present upwind of the hydraulic jump. The model accurately resolves details of the marine boundary layer collapse into the jump. Results from large-eddy simulations show a large increase in the turbulent kinetic energy field coincident with the hydraulic jump.

Abstract:
The California Department of Fish and Wildlife (CDFW) uses fiberglass material for forensic analysis of oil sheens, while the United States Coast Guard (USCG) method uses a tetrafluoroetheylene-fluorocarbon (TFE-fluorocarbon) polymer net. We performed a field trial of these two materials by sampling natural oil seeps, two in Santa Monica Bay, and three sheen areas in the Santa Barbara Channel. Though the fiberglass material did collect less mass on some trials, the forensic chemistry results demonstrated that both materials were satisfactory for purposes of chemical forensic analysis as each pair of the sampling materials yielded results that were consistent with a common oil seep source.

Abstract:
The marine red alga Sciadophycus stellatus E.Y.Dawson (1945) (Figure 1) was described from specimens dredged at 40–50 meters from the Kellett Channel, south shore of Cerros Island (also known as Cedros Island), Baja California, Mexico (Dawson 1945). This uncommon subtidal species occurs in southern California, Baja California, Mexico and Isla Floreana, Galapagos Islands (as Fauchea rhizophylla Taylor) (Dawson 1945, Abbott and Hollenberg 1976, Millar 2001, Aguilar-Rosas et al. 2010). In California, S. stellatus has been collected in San Diego County (UC2003699) and Palos Verdes Peninsula, Los Angeles County (UC1882843), on the mainland coast of southern California and, more commonly, offshore from Santa Catalina (UC1471598), Santa Barbara (UC2034301), Anacapa (WTU-A-012879) and Santa Cruz Islands (UC1965240). In Mexico, in addition to the type locality, it has been collected from Isla Los Coronados (UC1574390), La Bufadora (Aguilar-Rosas et al. 2010), Isla Natividad (UC1882846), Punta Eugenia (US13095) and Bahia Tortugas (US42090), Baja California (distribution records, unless otherwise cited, are based on specimens in herbaria at the University of California at Berkeley [UC], University of Washington [WTU-A], and the Smithsonian Institution [US]).

Abstract:
Abstract Typical spring and summer conditions offshore of California consist of strong northerly low-level wind contained within the cool, well-mixed marine boundary layer (MBL) that is separated from the warm and dry free troposphere by a sharp temperature inversion. This system is often represented by two layers constrained by a lateral boundary. Aircraft measurements near Point Conception, California, on 3 June 2012 during the Precision Atmospheric MBL Experiment (PreAMBLE) captured small-scale features associated with northerly flow approaching the point with the added complexity of encountering opposing wind in the Santa Barbara Channel. An extremely sharp cloud edge extends south-southwest of Point Conception and the flight strategy consisted of a spoke pattern to map the features across the cloud edge. Lidar and in situ measurements reveal a nearly vertical jump in the MBL from 500 to 100 m close to the coast and a sharp edge at least 70 km away from the coast. In this case, it is hypothesized that it is not solely hydraulic features responsible for the jump, but the opposing flow in the Santa Barbara Channel is a major factor modifying the flow. Just southeast of Point Conception are three distinct layers: a shallow, cold layer near the surface with northwesterly winds associated with an abrupt decrease in MBL height from the north that thins eastward into the Santa Barbara Channel; a cool middle layer with easterly wind whose top slopes upward to the east; and the warm and dry free troposphere above.

Phosphorus, an essential nutrient, is removed from the oceans only through burial with marine sediments. Organic phosphorus (Prog) constitutes an important fraction (ca. 25%) of total-P in marine sediments. However, given the inherent lability of primary Prog biochemicals, it is a puzzle that any Porg is preserved in marine sediments. The goal of this thesis was to address this apparent paradox by linking bulk and molecular-level Porg information. A newly-developed sequential extraction method, which isolates sedimentary Pol reservoirs based on solubility, was used in concert with Prog nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (31P-NMR) to quantify Prog functional group concentrations. The coupled extraction/ 31P-NMR method was applied to three sediment cores from the Santa Barbara Basin, and the first-ever high-resolution depth profiles of molecular-level Porg distribution during diagenesis were generated. These depth profiles were used to consider regulation of Prog distribution by biomass abundance, chemical structure, and physical protection mechanisms. Biomass cannot account for more than a few percent of sedimentary Prog. No evidence for direct structural control on remineralization of Porg was found. Instead, sorptive protection appears to be an important mechanism for Prog preservation, and structure may act as a secondary control due to preferential sorption of specific Porg compound classes.

Abstract:
Involvement with the Long-Term Ecological Research (LTER) program has enabled me to ask novel and exciting science questions at larger spatial and longer temporal scales than I could have otherwise. It has enhanced my ability to engage in interdisciplinary collaborative research. The LTER program has afforded my graduate students a variety of opportunities that have enhanced their training and experiences as early career scientists. My undergraduate students learn about LTER research findings in my classes and have the opportunity to work as research assistants in the field and the laboratory. My experiences with LTER- funded research have made me aware of the importance of community and K–12 outreach, and it has provided me opportunities to plan such activities. Engaging in the LTER program has provided me with a myriad of opportunities to collaborate with other sites and groups to address network-level science questions. My collaborators include investigators from within the LTER network, as well as international scientists. My experience in the LTER network began in 2000, when the Santa Barbara Coastal (SBC) LTER project was established, and expanded in 2004 with the founding of the Moorea Coral Reef (MCR) LTER site. I have been a co–principal investigator at both of these sites since their inception. Because I am a marine community ecologist, my research interests and those of my graduate students are closely aligned with the goals and activities of both sites. My LTER network-level experiences include a 3-year term on the LTER Executive Board, participation in several LTER All Scientists Meetings, and a network-sponsored working group on abrupt state shifts. Currently, I am a professor of ecology in the Department of Ecology, Evolution, and Marine Biology at the University of California (UC) Santa Barbara. My disciplinary background is population and community ecology, and prior to my involvement with the LTER program, my research and that of my students focused mainly on questions related to population dynamics and species interactions.

Abstract:
En route to sarcandralactone A 3, Scott A. Snyder of Scripps Florida effected (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2015, 54, 7842) Diels–Alder cycloaddition of the activated enone 1 to the Danishefsky diene. On exposure to trifluoroacetic acid, the adduct was unraveled to the ene dione 2. Michael N. Paddon-Row of the University of New South Wales and Michael S. Sherburn of the Australian National University prepared (Nature Chem. 2015, 7, 82) the allene 4 in enantiomerically-pure form. Sequential cycloaddition with 5 followed by 6 gave an adduct that was decarbonylated to 7. Further cycloaddition with nitro­ethylene 8 led to the pseudopterosin (−)-G-J aglycone 9. The protein–protein interaction inhibitor JBIR-22 12 contains a quaternary α-amino acid pendant to a bicyclic core. Nicholas J. Westwood of the University of St. Andrews set (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2015, 54, 4046) the absolute configuration of the core 11 by using an organocatalyst to activate the cyclization of 10. Metal catalysts can also be used to set the absolute configuration of a Diels–Alder cycloaddition. In the course of establishing the structure of the marine natural prod­uct muironolide A 15, Armen Zakarian of the University of California, Santa Barbara cyclized (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2015, 137, 5907) the enol form of 13 preferentially to the diastereomer 14. Unactivated intramolecular Diels–Alder cycloadditions have been carried out with more and more challenging substrates. A key step in the synthesis (Chem. Asian. J. 2015, 10, 427) of (−)-platencin 18 by Martin G. Banwell, also of the Australian National University, was the cyclization of 16 to 17. In another illustration of the power of the unactivated intramolecular Diels–Alder reaction, Thomas J. Maimone of the University of California, Berkeley cyclized (Angew. Chem. Int. Ed. 2015, 54, 1223) the tetraene 19 to the tricycle 20. Allylic chlo­rination followed by reductive cyclization converted 20 to chatancin 21.
