Abstract: For a well-developed sea at equilibrium with a constant wind, the energy-containing range of the wavenumber spectrum for wind-generated gravity waves is approximated by a generalized power law ?(U2/g)2?k?4+2?Y(k,?), where ...

Abstract: The retroflections of the East Madagascar Current and Agulhas Current are complex rapidly evolving systems, the latter controlling the passage of warm salty water from the Indian Ocean to the Atlantic. The TRMM Microwave ...

Abstract: An investigation into a potentially important, but little-studied effect on altimeter data?rain contamination?has been carried out using ERS-1. The method involves identifying large changes in the radar backscatter coefficient ...

Abstract: aves and wave breaking play a significant role in the air?sea exchanges of momentum, sea spray aerosols, and trace gases such as CO2, but few direct measurements of wave breaking have been obtained in the open ocean (far ...
