Marine Fog Cruise, USNS Hayes, 29 July-28 August, 1975,
Abstract
The purpose of this Expedition was twofold. The first was to measure together in one area of high fog incidence a sufficient data base that would be suitable to test various existing boundary layer fog models by providing both input conditions necessary for the model as well as actual measurements of what the model predicts. Secondly, the cruise enabled multidisciplined measurements on other parameters of the boundary layer which may bear an important role in the physics of marine fog formation and dissipation. The present report attempts to combine the papers describing the reduced data of all of the investigators into one common place so that the unique multidiscipline approach will not be lost. The first leg of the cruise left Norfolk, Va., on the 29th of July, and docked in Halifax, N. S., on 12 August. Most of the fog events occurred during this leg and the majority of papers discuss only their findings on the first leg of the cruise.
