This award will support studies by Luther, Miller and                        Hendershott, on low frequency oscillations of sea level in the                  Pacific Basin. Numerical models of barotropic vorticity waves,                  fortnightly and monthly tides, and island-trapped Kelvin waves                  give signals that can be recognized in sea level records of                     Pacific Island's tide gauges. The studies combine data analysis,                theory and numerical modeling to interpret the sub-inertial modes               of oscillation and will be relevant to dealiasing altimetry data.               The theoretical prediction of free modes from numerical models                  with realistic topography will enable for the first time the use                of analysis techniques borrowed from seismology, like "stacking",               which look very promising.
