A mooring instrumented with optical and physical sensors within the upper 300 m was deployed for two consecutive 6-month periods (October 15, 1994 through October 20, 1995) in the central Arabian Sea (15 degrees 30'N, 61 degrees 30'E). Both the Northeast (NE) and southwest (5W) Monsoons were observed. During the NE Monsoon, wind speeds averaged 6m/s and reached up to 15 m during the 5W ...
The FUOD mooring instrumented with optical and physical sensors within the upper 300 m was deployed for two 6-month periods (10/15/94 through 10/20/95) in the central Arabian Sea (15 deg 30'N, 61 deg 30'E). Both the northeast and southwest monsoons were observed. During the NE monsoon, wind speeds averaged 6 m/s and reached up to 15 m/s during the SW monsoon. Intermonsoon was characterized ...
We have collected a remarkable data set with a very high percentage of data return. The eye of Hurricane Edouard passed within roughly 80 km of our mooring on September 1-2, 1996 and soon after Hurricane Hortense passed within roughly 250 km of our mooring on September 14, 1996. With the passage of Edouard, the mixed layer deepened very rapidly with temperature differences from the top ...
