Lagrangian Turbulence and Transport in Semi-Enclosed Basins and Coastal Regions

Abstract

The long-term goal of this project is the development and application of new methods of investigation for the use of Lagrangian data and other emerging in-situ and remote instruments (drifters, gliders, HF radar and satellite) that provide information on upper ocean advection. Special attention is given to the development of new techniques for data fusion and assimilation of data in Eulerian numerical models.
