the spectral energy balance equation. The evolution of the action density N is governed by Komen et al. [13]: ∂N/∂t+∇_x ⃗ ∙[((c_g ) ⃗+U ⃗ )N]+(∂c_θ N)/∂θ+(∂c_σ N)/∂σ=S_tot/σ where, N(σ.θ) is the action density spectrum, x is space, t is time,θ is wave direction, σ is relative frequency, S_tot is the source term total, and c_g represents the propagation velocity. The first term in the left hand side of the equation represents the local rate of change of action density in time. The second and third…
sail boating, went swimming in the ocean, buggy board, sand volleyball, swam in the pool, walked the beach at night, got henna tattoos, a dread in our hair and went to the club with my brother and Emerson. The sand on my feet, the crashing of the waves, people swimming in the ocean, the smell of sunscreen and the wonderful taste of my flamingo drink; Mexico is my kind of place to be. But the first day in particular sticks out to me the most, the day we went parasailing and sail boating. Waking…
It was a hot summer day and a perfect day to go swimming. The river was flowing calmly to the south and the currents were just strong enough to make me drift along without any efforts. Little did I know that I was about to experience the worst nightmare of my life. We all go through life, day after day, without thinking much about our purpose. We take life for granted and we think we deserve to be alive until such a moment when we come so close to death and we are suddenly jolted to a…
The waves moved gently with the wind. Odysseus shouts some orders to his crew, while the sun beats down on his face. The smell of the water filled the nostrils of the crew, as they sailed for home. In The Odyssey and O Brother Where Art Thou, Odysseus and Everett went on long journeys to get back to their family. However, they did not embark on the journey alone, each had a crew that came with them. The crews were not extras in a Batman movie, they were huge parts of the journey that added to…
The song I chose is “Surfin’ U.S.A.”, is characterized by the Beach Boys. I chose this song because of how laid back the tune sounds and makes me want to relax. It’s relaxing because the song reminds me of the beach and the sounds of the waves. In the song it talks about how they will be gone for the summer and to tell the teacher they have gone surfing. The summer always reminds me of the beach and all the surfers in the water. In the 1960’s California was known as the surfing state. The Beach…
One of the topics that was talked about at the museum was of the tonols the Chumash rode on for catching fish and for other things. The Chumash used the tomols to paddle to the Channel Islands through long journeys. They used redwood to assemble the boats but once they ran out of the redwood they had to use whatever wood they could find and use. In order for the Chumash to connect the wood together they need to pierce some holes into the platforms so that they could stay together. Then they…
Narrative Chirp, chirp the birds sang. It is almost 8 in the morning. Everyone is awake and ready for the adventures that will come with the day except for Lucas. Lucas is sound asleep in his house while his girlfriend is on a run with their dog. ***It is 9:30 and Lucas has finally awoken. Him and his girlfriend, Alissa get into their beach clothes and head off to get some breakfast. When they finish they go to their shop with their dog, Mack. When they arrive at their shop, Brave New World,…
is primary based on sample rates and to see the effects of sample rates by using Sinusoidal waves. Sinusoidal waves can be represented using frequency and period. The Frequency of a Sinusoidal wave is the number of complete cycles that happen in a particular period of time or in a given sample. The Period in terms of Sinusoidal waves, is the time it takes to perform one complete cycle. The Sinusoidal wave is a series of identical cycles happening repeatedly. The sample rate is the most important…
Crack! Boom! Pow! Went the thunder I was so scared I started shaking. My family and I were on a iceberg suddenly the iceberg broke I was drifting away from my family I tried to swim, but the waves were to big. I drifted far away and I couldn’t see anything but fog so I went to sleep and decided to find a way home tomorrow. When I woke up I saw a boy and a girl staring at me “are they going to hurt me”? I thought I looked around and found out that I was on a small Beach and in the distance I…
Managing to break free from the first set of waves, I pushed forth into the next set of unceasing five foot waves. With legs bent upwards and arms plunging one after the other in a Michael Phelps mentality to finish the race with swift strokes, I kept my body centered in the middle of my seven foot board just like my grandpa positioned me to do so. With a split second to pause and raise my head to look over an oncoming wave, I made out the face of my grandpa, looking back at me from his own…
