Please explain these questions in details
1) Describe the technologies used today to measure ocean
currents and salinity/depth? How is in situ, and remotely sensed
technologies combined to further the understanding of circulation
patterns in the ocean basins?
2) What is coastal armament, and is it a viable and cost-effective
method to "protect" coastlines?

A two-lane rural highway, four-leg intersection will have its stop control replaced by a signal control. Compute the expected average total crash frequency (all types, all severities) after the change for the following conditions:
Expected average crash frequency before change: 23 total
crashes/yr
AADT on minor road: 1500 veh/day
AADT on major road: 5000 veh/day
