Supertidal Frequency Internal Waves on the Continental Shelf South of New England
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Large-amplitude internal waves of supertidal frequency are commonly observed on continental shelves during the stratified mason. We present a series of intensive observations of such waves at an anchor station south of New ...
Summertime Hydrography at the Shelfbreak Front in the Middle Atlantic Bight
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: We present results from a study of the shelfbreak front in the middle Atlantic Bight during summer when we obtained the best resolved hydrography in time and space yet published for that structure. Repeated transects enabled ...
Optimizing Performance of a Microwave Salinity Mapper: STARRS L-Band Radiometer Enhancements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Airborne microwave radiometers for salinity remote sensing have advanced to a point where operational surveys can be conducted over the inner continental shelf to observe the evolution of freshwater plumes emanating from ...
Ocean Surface Roughness Spectrum in High Wind Condition for Microwave Backscatter and Emission Computations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: cean surface roughness plays an important role in air?sea interaction and ocean remote sensing. Its primary contribution is from surface waves much shorter than the energetic wave components near the peak of the wave energy ...
