Alan Blumberg : ウィキペディア英語版 | Alan Blumberg Dr. Alan F. Blumberg is an American oceanographer best known for his contributions to the understanding of flow processes and modeling of water bodies as well as initiatives that provide better scientific observations and forecasts for coastal urban areas. ==Education and research== Blumberg earned his Ph.D. from Johns Hopkins University in 1976 and conducted post-doctoral research at Princeton University, where he was integral to the development of numerical ocean flow models such as the Princeton Ocean Model (POM) and its shallow water derivative, the Estuarine and Coastal Ocean Model. POM remains in use throughout the world to inform environmental studies, vessel and shipping operations, and maritime security issues. The predictive model was notably used in recent years to study the potential effects of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=AOS & CICS Newsletter - Spring/Summer 2010 )〕 Blumberg has been featured on several television programs, including CBS Eyewitness News and the National Geographic Channel show "Naked Science" to discuss a new methodology for weakening hurricanes by as much as a category. The proposed system uses thousands of pipes dropped into the ocean that would transport cold water up to the surface by the pressure of waves and thus reduce the temperature on the ocean's surface by 1-3 degrees. Such a temperature drop would be enough to chill a storm to save lives and reduce damage.〔() 〕 In 2002, Blumberg joined the faculty of Stevens Institute of Technology, and currently acts as Director of the Center for Maritime Systems.
