Analysis and Modeling Using Multi-Year Satellite Observations in the Aegean and Eastern Mediterranean Seas
2007
Kelly, Kathryn
Our objective was to understand how upper ocean processes, such as internal waves, seasonal-to-interannual variations of the circulation, eddy variability, SST, and wind forcing in the Aegean Sea affect mixing and temperature in the upper ocean. An analysis of modeled and observed sea surface temperatures was submitted to the Journal of Geophysical Research - Oceans in October 2006 and is under review (abstract below). In addition, comparisons between the buoy winds and QuikSCAT in the Aegean Sea were used to optimize a mapping, algorithm for the new higher-resolution (12.5 km) QuikSCAT winds. A relevant finding is that, for daily-averaged winds, mapped QuikSCAT winds are as accurate as an anemometer at about 100 km from a given location. This analysis is being incorporated in a manuscript describing the mapping algorithm and its verification in a manuscript in preparation.
