Understanding the Physical Processes Above and Below the Air-Sea Interface
Abstract
: The overall objective of this research is to gain a better understanding of the air-sea interaction processes and their impact on turbulence exchanges and on the mean vertical profiles of wind, temperature, and humidity in the marine atmospheric surface layer (MASL) and the temperature and salinity profiles in the ocean mixed layer (OML). The goal of the research is to improve environmental prediction of the coupled atmosphere and ocean system, focusing on both sides close to the air-sea interface in support of prediction of radio/radar signal propagation in the MASL and performance of the state-of-the-art weapon systems such as the HELWS.
