RISDisplacement Measurement Errors from Moving Platforms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Errors in eddy correlation measurements from moving platforms (aircraft, ships, buoys, blimps, tethered balloons, and kites) include contamination of the measured fluctuations by superficial fluctuations associated with ...
A Pressure-Sphere Anemometer for Measuring Turbulence and Fluxes in Hurricanes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Turbulence and air-surface exchange are important factors throughout the life cycle of a tropical cyclone. Conventional turbulence instruments are not designed to function in the extreme environment encountered in such ...
Measurement of Directional Wave Spectra Using Aircraft Laser Altimeters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A remote sensing method to measure directional oceanic surface waves by three laser altimeters on the NOAA LongEZ aircraft is investigated. To examine feasibility and sensitivity of the wavelet analysis method to various ...
The Coupled Boundary Layers and Air–Sea Transfer Experiment in Low Winds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Office of Naval Research's Coupled Boundary Layers and Air?Sea Transfer (CBLAST) program is being conducted to investigate the processes that couple the marine boundary layers and govern the exchange of heat, mass, and ...
