Observational case study revealing oceanic internal solitary waves modulating air-sea interactions in northern South China sea [PDF]
Internal solitary waves (ISWs) are extreme oceanic dynamic processes that significantly modulate sea surface currents and roughness, but their roles in air-sea interactions are still poorly understood.

Surprises in Physical Oceanography: Contributions from Ocean Acoustic Tomography
The author has employed ocean acoustic tomography over the past 30 years to examine problems in physical oceanography, often with surprising results. Tomography offers an accurate measurement of current or sound speed (temperature) averaged over 100s to ...
