- Abstract:
-
The Boundary Layer Studies Group (BLSG) of the Department of
Meteorology, Naval Postgraduate School (NPS), deployed its 'Flux'
buoy in Monterey Bay in July-November 2000 as part of the MUSE
collaborative research project. The Flux buoy is a 2-m diameter
disk buoy instrumented with sensors to measure mean environmental
parameters, atmospheric turbulence quantities and spectral wave
data. Fifteen-minute averaged meteorology data and bulk
surface layer scaling parameter estimates were determined.
- Purpose: These data were collected for oceanographic research.
