Upward Momentum Transfer in the Marine Boundary Layer
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper focuses on the study of momentum flux between ocean and atmosphere in light winds and is based on the data collected during several field campaigns, the Atlantic Stratocumulus Transition Experiment, the Tropical ...
Dependence of the Monin–Obukhov Stability Parameter on the Bulk Richardson Number over the Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Recent measurements made onboard the R/P FLIP in the San Clemente Ocean Probing Experiment in September 1993 and onboard the R/V Moana Wave during Tropical Ocean Global Atmosphere Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Response Experiment ...
NOTES AND CORRESPONDECEScaling Reasoning and Field Data on the Sea Surface Roughness Lengths for Scalars
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The heat and mass transfer over the sea is considered in terms of the sea surface roughness lengths for scalars, z0T for potential temperature ?, and z0q for specific humidity q, or alternatively, in terms of the roughness-layer ...
Bulk Parameterization of Air–Sea Fluxes: Updates and Verification for the COARE Algorithm
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: In 1996, version 2.5 of the Coupled Ocean?Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) bulk algorithm was published, and it has become one of the most frequently used algorithms in the air?sea interaction community. This paper ...
Wind Stress Vector over Ocean Waves
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Previous investigations of the wind stress in the marine surface layer have primarily focused on determining the stress magnitude (momentum flux) and other scalar variables (e.g., friction velocity, drag coefficient, ...

Publisher: American Meteorological Society
C-FOG: Life of Coastal Fog
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A comprehensive multidisciplinary research program on coastal fog provides unique insights on its lifecycle and predictability barriers.C-FOG is a comprehensive bi-national project dealing with the formation, persistence ...
The MATERHORN: Unraveling the Intricacies of Mountain Weather
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: merging application areas such as air pollution in megacities, wind energy, urban security, and operation of unmanned aerial vehicles have intensified scientific and societal interest in mountain meteorology. To address ...
