Discussion: Tuesday Wealth from Oceans National Research Flagship Deep-water mooring workshop, Hobart, May 5-6, 2014.
Discussion points • General comments from all • What does Southern Ocean Site offer (e.g., vshurrican buoy measurements) • Technological considerations • Follow from that: • SOTS offers a possible unique opportunity as a Southern Ocean (high wind/wave) long-term mooring deployment. • What does Southern Ocean Site offer (e.g., vshurrican buoy measurements) • Wave-Ocean • Technological • Solutions offered yesterday focussed on testing of wave fields (GPS/waverider/etc) • Turbulent measurements feasible (particularly if PULSE mooring is accessible) • SOFS mooring probably too noise • Ambient noise measurements • Redundant sensors to deal with conditions • Scientific • Relatively few studies with simultaneous wave and turbulence data. • OSMOSIS update? • SOFS near to region of max <w2>/u*2 which is ok location to try and determine this contribution (directional wind/wave effects). There are better locations • How do we separate alternative mixing mechanisms? • Wave-atmosphere • Can you measure covariance fluxes from surface buoy like SOFS
