Estimates of Kinetic Energy Dissipation under Breaking Waves
Eugene A. Terray,Mark A. Donelan,Y. C. Agrawal,William M. Drennan,Kimmo K. Kahma,Albert J. Williams,Paul A. Hwang,S.A. Kitaigorodskii +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a scaling for the rate of dissipation based on wind and wave parameters, and concluded that the dissipation rate under breaking waves depends on depth, to varying degrees, in three stages.
Journal ArticleDOI
Enhanced dissipation of kinetic energy beneath surface waves
Y. C. Agrawal,Eugene A. Terray,Mark A. Donelan,Paul A. Hwang,Albert J. Williams,William M. Drennan,Kimmo K. Kahma,S. A. Krtaigorodskii +7 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report observations of turbulence in Lake Ontario, taken under conditions of strong wave breaking, which reveal a greatly enhanced dissipation rate of kinetic energy close to the air-water interface, relative to the predictions of wall-layer theory.
Journal ArticleDOI
Swimming gaits, passive drag and buoyancy of diving sperm whales Physeter macrocephalus.
TL;DR: Whales glides more during portions of dives when buoyancy aided their movement, and whales that glided more during ascent glided less during descent (and vice versa), supporting the hypothesis that buoyancy influences behavioural swimming decisions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Oceanic Turbulence Dissipation Measurements in SWADE
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors reported new measurements of turbulent kinetic energy dissipation made in the North Atlantic Ocean from a SWATH ship during the recent Surface Waves Dynamics Experiments (SWADE).

Air-sea CO2 exchange in the equatorial Pacific : Air-Sea Exchange
Wade R. McGillis,James B. Edson,Christopher J. Zappa,J. Ware,Sean P. McKenna,Eugene A. Terray,Jeffrey E. Hare,Christopher W. Fairall,William M. Drennan,Mark A. Donelan,Michael D. DeGrandpre,Rik Wanninkhof,Richard A. Feely +12 more
TL;DR: GasEx-2001, a 15-day air-sea carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) exchange study conducted in the equatorial Pacific, used a combination of ships, buoys, and drifters equipped with ocean and atmospheric sensors to assess variability and surface mechanisms controlling airsea CO 2 fluxes as mentioned in this paper.
