Circulation, Fronts and Internal Waves at the Mouth of the Columbia River
Abstract
The goals of this work are to understand the nature of the observed surface signatures and how they can be used to improve understanding and model predictive capability. Specifically, we wish to Quantify surface velocity fields for comparison with numerical models being run by a number of collaborators. Compare strong observed features such as fronts and internal waves to in situ data to understand the geophysical roots of the signatures. Compare features in EO, radar and IR to determine how the different scattering physics can tell us about the surface features being observed.
