Abstract: Predictability of particle motion in the ocean over a timescale of one week is studied using three clusters of buoys consisting of 5?10 drifters deployed in the tropical Pacific Ocean. The analysis is conducted by using ...

Abstract: A hybrid Lagrangian?Eulerian model for calculating the trajectories of near-surface drifters in the ocean is developed in this study. The model employs climatological, near-surface currents computed from a spline fit of ...

Abstract: The three-dimensional hurricane-induced ocean response is determined from velocity and temperature profiles acquired in the western Gulf of Mexico between 14 and 19 September 1988 during the passage of Hurricane Gilbert. ...
