Advanced Ocean Surface Measurements with HF Radar.
1997
Vesecky, John F.
HF surface wave radar for ocean wave and current measurements began with collaborative work at Stanford University and Scripps Institution of Oceanography in the late 1960's. Two of the participants in this project (Drs. Teague and Vesecky) have worked with HF radar observations of the ocean since these early experiments. Under this grant a new HF radar design was begun and some prototype construction completed. This work led to construction of a full scale prototype that is now being tested over Monterey Bay, California from a field site kindly provided at the Long Marine Laboratory of the University of California at Santa Cruz. Initial results, including radial current field maps at four frequencies and variations of currents with time, were presented at the American Geophysical Union Fall Meeting in San Francisco, December, 1996. This final report is a presentation of results under the funding from ONR grant N00014-94-1-0371. It contains an overview of the radar design and its implementation in hardware as well as some preliminary results on vertical shear in the surface current field over Monterey Bay CA.
