  2. 5 Pulse-coherent Doppler sonars • The sonar system has two beams, each of which measure velocity along the beam over 1 m at 2 cm resolution. The system is vaned into the current and takes data at 4 Hz rate at near 100% duty cycle. • Depth profile of TKE dissipation rate • Successful Deployments • Southern Ocean GasEx 2008 • RaDyO SBC 2008 and RaDyO Hawaii 2009 • Stratus 9 (2008-2010) as part of VOCALS-Rex • Lucky Strike 2010 T/S Drifter with TKE Dissipation Rate Kolmogorov Spectra The turbulent dissipation rate is estimated from the direct wavenumber spectra in the Kolmogorov inertial dissipation range.

  15. Breaking Crest Length Distribution using Infrared Imagery Small-scale wave roughness in Santa Barbara Channel was important to the Breaking Distribution. This bimodality may result from the difference the relaxation of the young and established seas in this rapidly changing wind field. Its possibly linked to the relaxing longer seas are sufficiently nonlinear for breaking to persist. b may vary with wind speed or MSWB becomes less dominant with increasing wind speed? Small-scale wave roughness in Santa Barbara Channel was important to the Breaking Distribution

  18. Polarimetric Slope Sensing (PSS) Stoke’s Vector PSS uses the change in polarization from scattering, reflection or refraction to infer the orientation of the interface. For negligible upwelling and for an unpolarized sky, the Degree of Linear Polarization is defined by or The Polarization Orientation is not affected by upwelling and is given by where The geometric relationship between the surface normal, incidence angle relative to the surface facet () and polarization orientation ().
