Satellite and In Situ Salinity: Understanding Near-Surface Stratification and Subfootprint
Variability in: Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society Volume 97 Issue 8 (2016) …

Six recent Langmuir turbulence parameterization schemes and five traditional schemes are
implemented in a common single‐column modeling framework and consistently compared …

Abstract Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) have shown the effects of ocean surface gravity

Field Measurements of Surface and Near-Surface Turbulence in the Presence of Breaking
Waves in: Journal of Physical Oceanography Volume 45 Issue 4 (2015) Jump to Content …

The seasonal cycle of submesoscale flows in the upper ocean is investigated in an idealised
model domain analogous to mid-latitude open ocean regions. Submesoscale processes …

Abstract Changes in the Earth's water cycle can be estimated by analyzing sea surface
salinity. This variable reflects the balance between precipitation and evaporation over the …

Layer in: Journal of Physical Oceanography Volume 46 Issue 10 (2016) Jump to Content …

The air‐sea gas transfer velocity k is frequently estimated as an empirical function of wind
speed. However, it is widely recognized that k depends on processes other than wind speed …

The ocean near-surface layers, such as the mixed and mixing layers, the entrainment layer,
and the log layer, contain the oceans' most energetic turbulence and are critical to …
