The cold water mass along the southeast and east coasts of Korea in 2016–2017

open access: yesFisheries and Aquatic Sciences, 2021
The spatial and temporal behaviors and fluctuations of the cold water that appeared in the South East Sea and the East Sea coast from 2016 to 2017 were investigated. The water temperature drop was large in the east

Modeling waves and wind stress [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, 2012
A model for wave and wind stress prediction is constructed. The source functions that drive the space‐time evolution of the energy spectra are developed in form based on theory and laboratory and field experiments. The calibration factors (proportionality constants of the source functions) are determined from a comparison of modeled and observed ...

Envisat/ASAR Images for the Calibration of Wind Drag Action in the Doñana Wetlands 2D Hydrodynamic Model

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2013
Doñana National Park wetlands are located in southwest Spain, on the right bank of the Guadalquivir River, near the Atlantic Ocean coast. The wetlands dry out completely every summer and progressively flood again throughout the fall and winter seasons ...

Wind Stress in the Coastal Zone: Observations from a Buoy in Southwestern Norway

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2019
Several studies have focused on the investigation of the wind stress in open ocean conditions where coastal processes were negligible. However, the direction and magnitude of the wind stress vector in coastal areas are still not fully known due to the ...

Whitecap Observations by Microwave Radiometers: With Discussion on Surface Roughness and Foam Contributions

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Ocean surface whitecaps manifest surface wave breaking. Most of the whitecap data reported in the literature are based on optical observations through photographic or video recording.

Impact of Ocean Currents on Wind Stress in the Tropical Indian Ocean

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
This study examines the effect of surface currents on the bulk algorithm calculation ofwind stress estimated using the scatterometer data during 2007–2020 in the Indian Ocean. In the study region as a whole, the wind stress decreased by 5.4% by including
