Golden, Kenneth M. | Sea ice studies in the Weddell Sea aboard USCGC Polar Sea | Our purpose was to investigate several of the characteristics of Weddell Sea pack ice that may affect the relative roles of dynamics and thermodynamics of pack ice development in this region. The total pack ice production and the movement of pack ice from its source area in the Weddell Sea is part... | Floes.; Salinity; Formation | 1980 |

Golden, Kenneth M. | Statistical mechanics of conducting phase transitions | The critical behavior of the effective conductivity o* of the random resistor network in Zd, near its percolation threshold, is considered. The network has bonds assigned the conductivities 1 and E >_0 in the volume fractions p and 1 -p. Motivated by the statistical mechanics of an Ising ferromagn... | Resistor; Ising; Ferromagnet | 1995 |

Fife, Paul C.; McMurtry, Patrick | Stress gradient balance layers and scale hierarchies in wall-bounded turbulent flows | Steady Couette and pressure-driven turbulent channel flows have large regions in which the gradients of the viscous and Reynolds stresses are approximately in balance (stress gradient balance regions). In the case of Couette flow, this region occupies the entire channel. Moreover, the relevant featu... | Couette flow; Stress gradient balance; Reynolds stress; Turbulent channel flow | 2005 |

Golden, Kenneth M. | Transition in the fractal geometry of Arctic melt ponds | During the Arctic melt season, the sea ice surface undergoes a remarkable transformation from vast expanses of snow covered ice to complex mosaics of ice and melt ponds. Sea ice albedo, a key parameter in climate modeling, is determined by the complex evolution of melt pond configurations. In fact, ... | | 2012-01-01 |
