INTRODUCTION The Cretaceous Period, spanning 65.5-146 million years ago (Mya), was a world different from what we are familiar with today.

Today, scientists know that one of these landmasses, the North American continent as we now know it, was at one point covered by a vast inland sea known as the Western Interior Seaway.

Life in and around Oceana NAS was bad, not horrible, like it had been earlier. Now over a year later it had gone from horrible to bad, which was a step up. They had electricity every other day for four hours at night, because there was a real fuel crunch. The Navy had been slow to react when the event hit and didn’t secure the gas stations and was only now starting to look at gaining control over the gang infested refineries—not that there were many.

Diving into Ocean 's 11 (1960), we are introduced to Danny Ocean.
While its geographical position close to the equator would correspond to a tropical climate, with dense vegetation, several factors make the Peruvian coast extremely arid desert. On the one hand, the presence of the Andes to the east prevents wind and moisture laden clouds reach the coast; secondly, the presence of the Peruvian or Humboldt Current, cold water, generates a phenomenon typical of the Peruvian coast, which prevents the presence of tropical rains, providing instead moisture accumulation by way of a dense mantle: the fog. With no rains on the Peruvian coast, the main source of water are rivers, born in the Andes that run westward flowing into the Pacific Ocean. The rivers cut through the desert, forming valleys are real oasis. While

I am interested in the field of physical oceanography and hydrodynamics in coastal environments such as river deltas, estuaries, and wetlands. I firmly believe that department of Oceanography and Coastal Sciences at Louisiana State University is one of the best places for me to fulfill my objectives, flourish intellectually, and -- through my dissertation -- to make a significant contribution to research.
