9314308 Cox This project seeks to investigate the role of very short capillary waves in transmitting momentum from the atmosphere to the ocean. The research consists of two phases: a laboratory experiment in the SIO wave channel, and a sea-going experiment with instruments deployed from "FLIP" in which measurements of wind profile, capillary and larger waves will be made. The study aims to take advantage of a successful new optical technique developed by Zhang and Cox (1992) for measuring both components of the surface slopes simultaneously. These measurements are combined with measurements of vorticity and velocity in the water to map the distribution of momentum transfer at the ocean surface.

9314308考克斯 该项目旨在研究非常短的毛细波在将动量从大气传输到海洋中的作用。 该研究包括两个阶段：在SIO波浪通道中进行的实验室实验，以及使用“FLIP”部署的仪器进行的海上实验，其中将测量风廓线、毛细波和较大的波浪。 这项研究的目的是利用张和考克斯（1992）开发的一种成功的新的光学技术，同时测量表面斜率的两个分量。 这些测量与水中的涡度和速度测量相结合，以绘制海洋表面动量转移的分布图。
