Ocean Wave Slope Observations Using Radar Backscatter and Laser Altimeters
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Combination of laser and radar aboard an aircraft is used to directly measure long gravity wave surface tilting simultaneously with nadir-viewing microwave backscatter from the sea surface. The presented dataset is extensive, ...
EASI: An Air–Sea Interaction Buoy for High Winds
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: his paper describes the new Extreme Air?Sea Interaction (EASI) buoy designed to measure direct air?sea fluxes, as well as mean properties of the lower atmosphere, upper ocean, and surface waves in high wind and wave ...
Impact of Typhoons on the Ocean in the Pacific
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: cyclones (TCs) change the ocean by mixing deeper water into the surface layers, by the direct air?sea exchange of moisture and heat from the sea surface, and by inducing currents, surface waves, and waves internal to the ...
