Analysis of Observations from the Coastal Mixing and Optics Moored Array
Abstract
Our objective is to understand the processes influencing the observed evolution of the stratification over the New England shelf during the Coastal Mixing and Optics program. We are particularly interested in the relative contributions of local one-dimensional mixing processes such as wind forced mixing cooling and tidal mixing versus three dimensional advective effects.
