Marine Physics: Internal-Surface Wave Interaction and Microstructure Measurement Program

Abstract

This report reflects the technical status of internal/surface wave interaction and microstructure projects conducted within the Advanced Ocean Engineering Laboratory at the Scripps Institution of Oceanography. These projects are: (1) Thermal Microstructure - to examine in detail the structure and dynamics of temperature and salinity and (2) Atmospheric Boundary Layer - to provide an understanding of the interaction between atmospheric boundary effects and surface waves.
