Aircraft Measurements for Understanding Air-Sea Coupling and Improving Coupled Model Predictions

Abstract

The long-terms goals of our research are to understand and parameterize the physics of air-sea interaction and the Marine Atmospheric Boundary Layer (MABL) over a wide spectrum of wind speeds, sea state and cloud coverage.
