Ocean currents; Ocean temperatureAbstract
Summaries of current measurements made with Richardson
current meters in two regions of the Western North Atlantic
are presented. Averaged quantities are presented in the
form of computer-plotted curves.

Near-surface ocean current sensors : problems and performance
McCullough, James R. (Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1979-12)When current meters are used to measure mean horizontal currents in surface gravity waves, immunity to the vertical component of flow is important, even though the net vertical flow averages to zero and is normal to the ... -
Implementation of the vortex force formalism in the coupled ocean-atmosphere-wave-sediment transport (COAWST) modeling system for inner shelf and surf zone applications
Kumar, Nirnimesh; Voulgaris, George; Warner, John C.; Olabarrieta, Maitane (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 ... -
An electromagnetic method for measuring the velocities of ocean currents from a ship under way
Von Arx, William S. (Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution, 1950-03)During the past four years a deliberate effort has been made at the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution to devise methods of kinematic observation generally suited to the needs of oceanographers. One result of this work, ...
