Simulations of sea fog case impacted by air–sea interaction over South China Sea

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2022
A sea fog event in the South China Sea was simulated using a coupled ocean–atmosphere model (WRF for the atmosphere and ROMS for the ocean). Offshore and onshore visibility, liquid water content, air temperature, humidity, and wind speed observations and

The Impacts of Gustiness on the Evolution of Surface Gravity Waves

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
Surface gravity waves are formed by kinetic energy transfer across the air‐sea interface. Significant improvements have been made in understanding the influence of wind on the energy input of waves. However, the impact of gustiness remains underexplored,

Wind Speed dependence of Air-Sea Exchange parameters over the Indian Ocean during INDOEX, IFP-99 [PDF]

open access: yesAnnales Geophysicae, 2003
Air-Sea exchange of momentum, heat and moisture over the oceanic surface plays an important role in understanding several processes spanning various scales of atmospheric and oceanic motions. The present study provides estimates of air-sea exchange

Decreasing intensity of open-ocean convection in the Greenland and Iceland seas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The air–sea transfer of heat and fresh water plays a critical role in the global climate system. This is particularly true for the Greenland and Iceland seas, where these fluxes drive ocean convection that contributes to Denmark Strait overflow water ...

An assessment of the surface turbulent heat fluxes from the NCEP reanalysis over western boundary currents [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
With the completion of the NCEP-NCAR and ECMWF reanalyses there are now global representations of air-sea surface heat fluxes with sufficient spatial and temporal resolution to be useful in characterizing the air-sea interaction associated with ...

FASINEX (Frontal Air-Sea Interaction Experiment) moored instrumentation [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
In 1986, FASINEX, a Frontal Air-Sea Interaction Experiment, a multi-investigator cooperative experiment, was conducted to study the role of horizontal variability in air-sea interaction in the persistent front formed in the subtropical convergence ...

Simulation of Ocean Responses to an Idealized Landfalling Tropical Cyclone Using a Coupled Atmosphere-Wave-Ocean Modeling System

open access: yesTropical Cyclone Research and Review, 2012
: Oceanic responses to a hypothetical landfalling tropical cyclone (TC) are studied by using a coupled atmosphere-wave-ocean modeling system (CAWOMS). A set of experiments are conducted to compare the effects of atmosphere-wave-ocean interaction on ocean

Using land-based stations for air–sea interaction studies

open access: yesTellus: Series A, Dynamic Meteorology and Oceanography, 2020
In situ measurements representing the marine atmosphere and air–sea interaction are taken at ships, buoys, stationary moorings and land-based towers, where each observation platform has structural restrictions.
