Whitecap Coverage Dependence on Wind and Wave Statistics as Observed during SO GasEx and HiWinGS

TL;DR: In this paper, the dependence of the whitecap coverage on wind speed, wave age, wave steepness, mean square slope, and wind-wave and breaking Reynolds numbers was determined from over 600 highfrequency visible imagery recordings of 20 min each.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Gas Transfer through Polar Sea ice experiment: Insights into the rates and pathways that determine geochemical fluxes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors determined the rates and pathways that govern gas transport through a mixed sea ice cover, and showed that very little mixed-layer ventilation takes place via gas diffusion through columnar sea ice.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using Ship-Deployed High-Endurance Unmanned Aerial Vehicles for the Study of Ocean Surface and Atmospheric Boundary Layer Processes

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors present the development of cutting-edge payload instrumentation for UAVs that provides a new capability for ship-deployed operations to capture a unique, high resolution spatial and temporal variability of the changing air-sea interaction processes than was previously possible.
Journal ArticleDOI

Blue pigmentation of neustonic copepods benefits exploitation of a prey-rich niche at the air-sea boundary

TL;DR: The significance of the pontellids’ blue pigmentation was investigated and it was found that the reflectance peak of the blue pigment matched the water-leaving spectral radiance of the ocean surface, which could reduce high visibility at the air-sea boundary and potentially provide camouflage of copepods from their predators.
