Abstract : The long-term goals are to further the understanding of air-sea interaction processes including momentum, heat, water vapor, surface and boundary layer dynamics under various meteorological and oceanographic conditions. The objectives of this grant are to measure and analyze the wind, wind stress and associated quantities at sea in the High Resolution Air-Sea Interaction DRI (HiRes). The practical objectives of Hi-Res are the determination of how well ship-based radars can measure the phase-resolved surface wave field (PRSWF), testing the skill of highly-nonlinear numerical surface wave models to predict the evolution of the PRSWF, and the incorporation of ocean wave effects into models of the Marine Atmospheric Boundary Layer (MABL). The HiRes grant started in April 2008. The initial phase of the research was to design the experimental system to be conducted on R/P FLIP. The penultimate experiment was conducted in June 2010 from FLIP, which was moored off the Northern California coast. Data from a past experiment are also being analyzed with respect to processes relevant to HiRes.
