Long-Term Evolution of the Coupled Boundary Layers (STRATUS), Mooring Recovery and Deployment Cruise Report, NOAA Research Vessel R H Brown

Abstract

This report documents the work done on cruise RB-O1-08 of the NOAA R/V Ron Brown. This was Leg 2 of R/V Ron Brown's participation in Eastern Pacific Investigation of Climate (EPIC) 2001, a study of air-sea interaction, the atmosphere, and the upper ocean in the eastern tropical Pacific.
