Real-Time Observations of a Coastal Upwelling Event Using Innovative Technologies

Abstract

The long term goals of this project are to develop a measuring capability for tracking and forecasting the development and decay of coastal upwelling circulations. A suite of real-time, remotely sensing instruments will input to a 3-D, data assimilating numerical model, which will support both circulation and ecosystem (e.g., bioluminescence potential) predictions.
