Abstract: The effect of solar flux divergence on upper ocean dynamics and energetics under both low and high wind speeds was determined using four different parameterizations of downward irradiance. The first (case I) involved only ...

Abstract: The relationship between downward irradiance and upper ocean structure has been studied using a numerical model. Two general classes of irradiance parameterizations were utilized. The first (case I) employed a single ...

Abstract: An experimental data acquisition system (telepack) was interfaced with a multivariable moored system in order to transmit physical and biooptical data from a coastal mooring site to a shore-based work station. The study ...

Abstract: A theory for pyrgeometer operation is utilized for determining downwelling longwave radiation. Errors in downwelling longwave radiation measurements are due to differences in pyrgeometer body and dome temperatures compared ...

Abstract: Horizontal current measurements were obtained simultaneously with a vector measuring current meter (VMCM), an acoustic Doppler current profiler (ADCP), and the recently developed Falmouth Scientific, Inc., acoustic current ...
