Summertime Coupling between Sea Surface Temperature and Wind Stress in the California
Current System in: Journal of Physical Oceanography Volume 37 Issue 3 (2007) Jump to …

Upwelling along ocean eastern boundaries is expected to intensify due to coastal wind
strengthening driven by increasing land-sea contrast according to the Bakun hypothesis …

This paper examines the strong, summertime northerly low-level jet (LLJ) that frequently
exists along the California coast. The persistent synoptic-scale pressure distribution (North …

The distribution of statistical properties of the meteorological and sea surface temperature
fields along the west coast of the United States is described based on 10‐yearlong …

Coast-parallel low-level jets are commonplace in the offshore environment along the west
coast of the United States during summer. The jet often has wind speeds in excess of 30 …

Almost half the US population lives along the coast. In another 20 years this population is
expected to more than double in size. The unique weather and climate of the coastal zone …

This paper explores the global wind power potential of Airborne Wind Energy (AWE), a
relatively new branch of renewable energy that utilizes airborne tethered devices to …

Patterns of wind stress and heat flux between the atmosphere and the ocean over the
Southern California Bight are described based on observations from buoys and ships …
