An Investigation of Surface Currents and Internal Waves over the Inner and Mid Shelf During the Duck94 Experiment

Abstract

The long-term goal is to understand the dynamics and temporal and spatial variability of the circulation over the inner to mid-shelf region and to examine which mechanisms and interactions are responsible for observed surface flow features? In addition, we seek to understand to the capability of this remote sensing technique for high-resolution wind and wave measurements in coastal regions.
