Abstract: Coordinated meteorological and oceanographic (CTD) measurements were made near Point Conception, California, during March?April 1981. The goal of the observations was to study coastal upwelling and the local characteristics ...

Abstract: Two observed cases of mixed-layer (ML) deepening due to storms are analyzed and simulated. The primary goal is to learn whether the relevant scale velocity in the parameterization of wind-driven deepening is U*, the wind ...

Abstract: In August 1973, 320 vertical profiles of temperature and horizontal velocity were recorded during a 64 h period by an array of three Cyclesondes in the coastal upwelling region off Oregon. The mean interior along-shore ...

Abstract: This paper describes a new, compact buoy, the Air?Sea Interaction Spar (ASIS), capable of reliably and accurately measuring directional wave spectra, atmospheric surface fluxes, and radiation in the the open ocean. The ...
