Abstract: One of the common methods for estimating actual evapotranspiration (

Abstract: The development of the Underway Conductivity?Temperature?Depth (UCTD) instrument is motivated by the desire for inexpensive profiles of temperature and salinity from underway vessels, including volunteer observing ships ...

Abstract: The transition layer is the poorly understood interface between the stratified, weakly turbulent interior and the strongly turbulent surface mixed layer. The transition layer displays elevated thermohaline variance compared ...

Abstract: Operating unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) over inhabited areas requires mitigating the risk to persons on the ground. Because the risk depends upon the flight path, UAV operators need approaches that can find lowrisk flight ...

Abstract: The superinertial and near-inertial wind-driven flow in the western North Atlantic is examined using data from two recent experiments. The Frontal Air?Sea Interaction Experiment (FASINEX) took place at 27°N, 70°W during ...

Abstract: AbstractAutonomous underwater Spray gliders made repeat transects of the Mindanao Current (MC), a low-latitude western boundary current in the western tropical North Pacific Ocean, from September 2009 to October 2013. In ...

Abstract: Moored observations of atmospheric variables and upper-ocean temperatures from the Long-Term Upper-Ocean Study (LOTUS) and the Frontal Air-Sea Interaction Experiment (FASINEX) are used to examine the upper-ocean response ...

Abstract: A unified theory of frontogenesis in mixed layers is proposed. Analytical solutions of the nonlinear mass and density balances in a mixed layer are found in the Lagrangian frame for a wide class of entrainment parameterizations. ...

Abstract: The Hawaiian Ridge is one of the most energetic generators of internal tides in the pelagic ocean. The density and current structure of the upper ocean at the Hawaiian Ridge were observed using SeaSoar and Doppler sonar ...
