Air-Sea Fluxes and Transfer Coefficients in the Equatorial Pacific during the COARE Pilot Experiment

在这个项目中，P.I.将测量热带西太平洋暖池区域的海气通量和传输系数，并与浮力驱动的海洋混合层湍流耗散和微观结构的测量合作。数据将应用于局部热收支和海气相互作用的总体热力学性质的研究。耗散技术将适用于船载测量，以大幅度提高在海上测量海洋边界层通量的能力。

In this project, the P.I. will measure air-sea fluxes and transfer coefficients in the area of the warm pool in the western tropical Pacific Ocean, in collaboration with measurements of turbulent dissipation and microstructure in the buoyancy-driven ocean mixed layer. Data will be applied to studies of local heat budgets and overall thermodynamic properties of the air-sea interactions. The dissipation technique will be adapted for shipboard measurements, in an effort to substantially improve the capability for measuring fluxes in the marine boundary layer while at sea.
