The report presents summaries of three data sets taken at and in the
vicinity of the oceanographic moorings deployed in the 1978 Joint Air-Sea
Inte raction Project (JASIN). The data sets are: (1) the temperature,
pressure and vertical motion records from the freely drifting Vertical
Current Meters (VCMs) deployed from the ATLANTIS II, (2) the temperature
data from the Aanderaa thermistor chains on W.H.O.I. mooring 653,
designated as JASIN mooring W3, and (3) the expendable bathythermograph
(XBT) data collected from the ATLANTIS II while participating in the
JASIN Project.

Suppressed pCO(2) in the Southern Ocean due to the interaction between current and wind
(American Geophysical Union, 2021-11-15)The Southern Ocean, an important region for the uptake of anthropogenic carbon dioxide (CO2), features strong surface currents due to substantial mesoscale meanders and eddies. These features interact with the wind and ... -
Implementation of the vortex force formalism in the coupled ocean-atmosphere-wave-sediment transport (COAWST) modeling system for inner shelf and surf zone applications
(2012-01)The coupled ocean-atmosphere-wave-sediment transport modeling system (COAWST) enables simulations that integrate oceanic, atmospheric, wave and morphological processes in the coastal ocean. Within the modeling system, the ... -
Impacts of ocean currents on the South Indian Ocean extratropical storm track through the relative wind effect
(American Meteorological Society, 2021-10-21)This study examines the role of the relative wind (RW) effect (wind relative to ocean current) in the regional ocean circulation and extratropical storm track in the south Indian Ocean. Comparison of two high-resolution ...
