The Effect of the Marginal Ice Zone on the Directional Wave Spectrum of the Ocean
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During the MIZEX-84 experiment in the Greenland Sea in June?July 1984, a cooperative program was carried out between the Scott Polar Research Institute (SPRI) and the Institute of Oceanographic Sciences (IOS) to measure ...
CFD Model Estimates of the Airflow Distortion over Research Ships and the Impact on Momentum Flux Measurements
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Wind velocity and air?sea turbulent flux measurements made from shipborne instruments are biased due to the effect of the ship on the flow of air to the instruments. The presence of the ship causes the airflow to a particular ...
Wind Stress Measurements from the Open Ocean Corrected for Airflow Distortion by the Ship
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A large dataset of wind stress estimates, covering a wide range of wind speed and stability conditions, was obtained during three cruises of the RRS Discovery in the Southern Ocean. These data were used by Yelland and ...
