Front Resolving Observational Network with Telemetry: Turbulence Characterization from an AUV

Abstract

A Front-Resolving Observational Network with Telemetry (FRONT) is being developed for a region of the coastal ocean. The long-term goal is to demonstrate and evaluate a real-time data collection network in concert with a data-assimilative dynamical model, which is designed to resolve or parameterize the needed range of scales, from mesoscales to microscales.
