WHOI Upper Ocean Observations for Air-Sea Flux Estimates
|
|
The Upper Ocean Processes (UOP) Group at WHOI,
through research projects, has deployed Air-Sea Interaction
Meteorology (ASIMET) systems on moored buoys and volunteer
observing ships. The ASIMET system is a suite of
meteorological and sea surface sensors that are capable of
measuring air temperature, specific humidity, sea surface
temperature and conductivity, wind speed and direction,
barometric pressure, shortwave radiation, longwave radiation,
and precipitation. Many more details about the projects and
online data access are provided at
the UOP website.
