Characterizing the Response of Aquatic Systems to Wind Burst Forcing by Using High-Resolution Spatial Sensors.

Abstract

The characterization of the turbulent environmental flow is an important research topic to improve the overall knowledge of ocean dynamics. In this paper we analyze different methodologies to characterize the event processes (turbulent patches) associated to the environmental turbulent flow. The analysis of the transient response from a wind burst has been used as a framework for determining the best method of turbulent characterization based on different measurement systems
