RISError in Measurements of Incoming Shortwave Radiation Made from Ships and Buoys
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Errors in shortwave solar radiation measurements resulting from mean tils and rocking motions, as well as from the response time of the sensors, are determined experimentally. The magnitude of the mean tilt error can be ...
Observations of Surface Forcing from the Subduction Experiment: A Comparison with Global Model Products and Climatological Datasets
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Reliable estimates of the exchange of heat, moisture, and momentum across the air?sea interface are essential in assessing the local ?representativeness? of the surface forcing fields depicted by global model and climatological ...
Surface Meteorology and Air-Sea Fluxes in the Western Equatorial Pacific Warm Pool during the TOGA Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A major goal of the Coupled Ocean-Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) was to achieve significantly more accurate and complete descriptions of the surface meteorology and air-sea fluxes in the western equatorial warm ...
Space/Time Structure of the Near-Surface Temperature Field During the NORPAX Pole Experiment
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: During January and February 1974 the NORPAX POLE experiment was carried out in the central Pacific to begin collection of data needed to design a large-scale ocean/atmosphere monitoring program. This paper describe features ...
Riding the Crest: A Tale of Two Wave Experiments
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: This paper gives a general overview of two ocean wave experiments. The experimental goals of the Surface Wave Processes Program (SWAPP) and of the Surface Wave Dynamics Experiment (SWADE) are quite different but complementary. ...
Determination of Longwave Heat Flux at the Air-Sea Interface Using Measurements from Buoy Platforms
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: A theory for pyrgeometer operation is utilized for determining downwelling longwave radiation. Errors in downwelling longwave radiation measurements are due to differences in pyrgeometer body and dome temperatures compared ...
Moored Observations of the Surface Meteorology and Air–Sea Fluxes in the Northern Bay of Bengal in 2015
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: Time series of surface meteorology and air?sea fluxes from the northern Bay of Bengal are analyzed, quantifying annual and seasonal means, variability, and the potential for surface fluxes to contribute significantly to ...
Ocean–Cloud–Atmosphere–Land Interactions in the Southeastern Pacific: The VOCALS Program
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: nt paper describes the Variability of the American Monsoon Systems (VAMOS) Ocean?Cloud?Atmosphere?Land Study (VOCALS), an international research program focused on the improved understanding and modeling of the southeastern ...
Cirene: Air–Sea Interactions in the Seychelles–Chagos Thermocline Ridge Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Vasco?Cirene program explores how strong air?sea interactions promoted by the shallow thermocline and high sea surface temperature in the Seychelles?Chagos thermocline ridge results in marked variability at synoptic, ...
Supplement to Cirene: Air—Sea Interactions in the Seychelles—Chagos Thermocline Ridge Region
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: The Vasco?Cirene field experiment, in January?February 2007, targeted the Seychelles?Chagos thermocline ridge (SCTR) region, with the main purpose of investigating Madden?Julian Oscillation (MJO)-related SST events. The ...
