Model Studies of Apra Harbor, Guam, M.I.: Progress Report for September, 1948

Abstract

Activities during the month were centered principally around the continuation of studies initiated in July and August and upon analysis of data collected for the studies. Refraction diagrams are being drawn as a part of the frequency response study and will be used as an aid in the determination of the mode of oscillation of the basin. The pollution study received the most attention during the month. A channel has been constructed in the model across Orote Peninsula between the south end of the inner harbor and Agat Bay. This channel is being used in studying the circulation possibilities in the inner harbor and repair basin under normal ocean conditions. The wave height averaging device is now completed and calibration and testing of the circuits are progressing rapidly.
