Wave-Follower Field Measurements of the Wind-Input Spectral Function. Part I: Measurements and Calibrations
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: An experimental study of wind energy and momentum input into finite-depth wind waves was undertaken at Lake George, New South Wales, Australia. To measure microscale oscillations of induced pressure above surface waves, a ...
Turbulent Fluxes in the Hurricane Boundary Layer. Part II: Latent Heat Flux
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: As part of the recent ONR-sponsored Coupled Boundary Layer Air?Sea Transfer (CBLAST) Departmental Research Initiative, an aircraft was instrumented to carry out direct turbulent flux measurements in the high wind boundary ...
Measurement of Wind Waves and Wave-Coherent Air Pressures on the Open Sea from a Moving SWATH Vessel
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The design and implementation on a Small Waterline Area Twin Hull (SWATH) vessel of a complete system for measuring the directional distribution of wind waves and the concomitant fluctuations of air pressure and wind speed ...
An Integrated System for the Study of Wind-Wave Source Terms in Finite-Depth Water
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A field experiment to study the spectral balance of the source terms for wind-generated waves in finite water depth was carried out in Lake George, Australia. The measurements were made from a shore-connected platform at ...
